I was debating between the Adire Shiva and the Image Dynamics IDQ12D4 V.2, What power does it take to power each sufficeiently and what one will you think will have better SPL and SQ?? What would be a good amp to power these subs. Any input is appreciated. I will be running 2 subwoofers in a sealed

Maybe Stephen can give you more insight on the Shiva, I have no personal experience with them, only limited exp. with the Brahma. Though I have heard good things of them.

About the Image Dynamics IDQD4 V.2, they work well in limited space with a sealed enclosure, great SQ, while maintaining good SPL, I ran them in my truck for a little while when they first came out, for demo purposes, I had them on a Zapco Reference 750, was well satisfied with them, if I hadn't already set up with the subs I had, that's what I would be running now, I am thinking of going back with them.
