this driver is vented at 26.5 Hz\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe IDMAX15 V4 carries 10.433 inches of mounting depth and a 16 inch frame, and neither trunk chassis will take it: the ported Down Fire caps at 8.50 inches of height and the wedge has no fifteen-inch ported height it fits. The Professional box stands 18 inches tall, flush-mounts the flange in a 2.25 inch triple baffle, and gives the motor the depth it needs. It gets 2.72 cubic feet net, vented at 26.5 Hz, in a 36 inch wide cabinet beside the front port.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eImage Dynamics publish a Qts of 0.95 at 30 Hz for the D2 coil, and that figure is genuine: their Qes and Qms reproduce it and the motor constants agree. A driver that damped wants a large box and a low vent, and their own manual says so, recommending 3.0 cubic feet gross at 27 Hz for the Universal alignment. This cabinet lands on it: 4.12 gross, 2.72 net after the driver, port and braces, vented at 26.5 Hz, which is where the in-car curve comes out flattest. Passband ripple sits at 4.46 dB, and that number is the driver's Q rather than the box; tuning higher or lower makes it worse, not better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhat makes it Professional\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTriple baffle, flush mount\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree layers of 3\/4 inch Langboard Elite make a 2.25 inch\n    front.

The channel runs 9.50 inches along its wall and turns once along the back wall for another 25.14 inches, which is why a 26.5 Hz tuning fits a 15.50 inch deep box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe cabinet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e36.00\" W x 18.00\" H x 15.50\" D external.

The D2 column is the published alignment here and the cabinet fits either coil. Image Dynamics recommend a sealed box for this driver; the ported Professional gives up nothing in control above 30 Hz and adds the output the motor is rated for, provided the subsonic filter is set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe numbers to respect\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \n  \u003cp\u003eSet a 21 Hz subsonic filter, 24 dB per octave.
