The IDMAX10 is not available as of yet. Also, the IDMAX V3's are just filtering out....very slowly though. The IDMAX16 will be the last to be released.

For the second half of your queston....GIVE ME MY SUB BACK!!! I never should have sold it!!!!

I have heard no noise what-so-ever about an ID 8 in driver. Hopefully they will when they go for the IDQv3's. If they do, I'm guessing that it will be more of a midbass driver, not a subwoofer. Also, mounting depth will be a real isue. Even if you were able to cram an 8" under the seat, the low frequency extension wouldn't even touch that 12" setup. I wish they never would have discontinued the IDQ8. They may build a larger CX mid driver as well....

If you really want up front bass, you are going to have to really work for it. A few options woulld be to use either the JL6W0 or those Focal 5" subs (5ws or something). The problem with upfront bass, is securing it to make sure it doesn't hint to its location.
