A good budget alternative seems to be the Alpine Type R 12, which can work well in as little as 0.85 cu ft (getting close to the output if the IDmax10), but would be even better at 1.2 cu ft.
What is it about the ID10 that everyone loves so much? I haven't had the change to listen to one yet. I will say that the 10w6v3 sounds incredibly responsive and accurate to my admittedly non-audiophile ears, but then again, they sound is a matter of preference and at one point in time I "preferred" a 15" Kicker L7.
