Ben, I think he's talking about a spacer to mount a 12" sub in the deck. I'm in the middle of bugging my wife to let me do this with our ES-350.

Err. that was a typo. But like most people in California, I have no concept of geography between here and New York. I apologize!

Yeah I'm talking about a spacer that would bolt on from underneath the rear deck and hold a 12".

This is my dream setup, and I'm exploring doing it myself:



Two IDMAX 12s in the rear deck. I think one will be sufficient for me, right in the center.

Those subs are overkill for an IB. You are just wasting all of the motor strength. The ED Kv.2 series has more than enough BL to push the cone to xmax.
