Bro, inverted and inside the AC really The temps in actual cars are already 100 degrees Terrible, boring, no useful information Shame, u review decent items! Comment from : @ryanesser5791 |
|
Love your videos but please do a review on WLLDSE-HCY 12s or WLLDSE-CVL 15s best budget sub hands down!!! I pushed mine for over a year and half! And still sold them for full price barely even broke in Comment from : @SebastianS13bastian |
|
What's crazy is that you don't even have the best Sub under $150 on here at all!!! WLLDSE-HCY12" $136 3,600 watts peak and yes I've ran them 3,500 watts rms a piece for way over a year and half! With 2 tramps HD3000s 2 ohm wired under 1 ohm around 75 ohm DAILY driver full tilt everyday! 340 AMP alternator and 50AH Lithium!!! The subs claim dual 1 but meter shows 66 so I guess that's better for more power I highly recommend these subs! IF YOU CAN FIND THEM???? THEYBUSED TO SELL ON AMAZON! THEY ARE SUNDOWN U KNOCKOFFS! THATS WHY THEY DONT MAKE THEM ANYMORE Comment from : @SebastianS13bastian |
|
Also you pulled thermometer away from sundown as the temp was spiking fast? Why Comment from : @thewhitefamily5515 |
|
Yo it all depends on the box Your lowered power subs will be louder than the higher powered subs Plus some subs create massive dB on super large boxes they could burn out of ran for a long time but the dbs will be there I would like to see you build a box tuned to 25hz and do the exact same test and I bet $ you will be shocked on which subs will do the best Comment from : @thewhitefamily5515 |
|
I about died when I seen that Scoche meter, still have an identical one from high school like 20 years ago lol Comment from : @MikeMik86 |
|
What amplifier would you use with the Rockville Comment from : @eliyates2402 |
|
Not looking for a shallow mount sub but would like the loudest and best sounding sub in an under 6-inch mount depth for Truck under seat sub boxes Most of these will not fit Probably have to go with 12-inch shallow mount or a 10-inch sub Comment from : @spec1923 |
|
Sundowns like a soar dick, you can’t beat it Comment from : @danielbrown558 |
|
I was wondering if any of those handheld inexpensive spl meters were any good and if they were worth buying for people boomin on a budget If Vega is using them maybe they are, even if they aren't that accurate I guess they would be useful to compare stuff relatively, right? Comment from : @SnubBarracuda |
|
What are your thoughts on jl audio? Still a contender in today's market?? Comment from : @Rizafoolwitit |
|
I plan on painting bedliner on my jeep, so the Rockville meets the eye test (other than the name?) Lol Comment from : @Rizafoolwitit |
|
Sundown proven tough, they have the best coils in the game Comment from : @SATANALEX9 |
|
Big D Wiz, Exo, and EMF Audio put rated rms power to the Rockville K-9 sub every one of the coils fried on those subs, it’s a piece of junk Comment from : @SATANALEX9 |
|
Thoughts on the skar svr? Comment from : @youridol |
|
Rockville just do better on K9 subs far as rms please! Comment from : @raymondrespress50 |
|
This didn't age very wellRockville K9 Comment from : @sana-cm7oc |
|
How would these stack up against the fosgate p3? Do you think better or worse Comment from : @donniegray2288 |
|
Can anyone recommend the best sub for a bandpass box??? Comment from : @roz4747 |
|
I've seen vids of those Rockville blowing at rated power Comment from : @shawnsanderson3695 |
|
You left out Crossfire C3 V3 Comment from : @zakkcooper |
|
Your in depth test is what i enjoy the most from your vids You throwing up gang signs constantly is pretty humorous too Im pickin man Keep up the great work 😎👍👍 Comment from : @cartruck1070 |
|
Sundown all the way These tests are cool to watch It’s a fun test but doesn’t mean anything really There are too many variables Comment from : @bpintogsxr1000 |
|
Watch EXO'S video on the K9 Its garbage Buy the Sundown Can't go wrong Comment from : @bass305-HCCA |
|
Lcs definitely Comment from : @zaccharris7806 |
|
Should of thrown the JL Audio 12" WV03-4 Its in that price range and they claim its best sub in that price class Id like to see how it compares with these subs Comment from : @JM-im1iu |
|
The only issue I have with this test and you brought it up yourself is the fact that not all of those speakers work well in that airspace so to me it's not a fair test Comment from : @timcouch5005 |
|
What is the runner-up Comment from : @ezraroberson6296 |
|
You can hear the plumbing in the Credence and Sundown the most Comment from : @timmchenry80 |
|
Im sending the doctor to check your headyou have a serious fever causing delusional thoughts Comment from : @MyBlowncobra |
|
Here's a list that helped me outbr"whinylcom/bswf-guide/brIn the end, I went with #4brbrbr4:07 Comment from : @gaellemelloul7367 |
|
Would've like to see the crossfire c3 in the mix Comment from : @darnell1320 |
|
Excellent video thanks for posting! Comment from : @The_Establishment_Is_Satanic |
|
Would these be over 120db inside the cabin of suv/car? Comment from : @James-id5xq |
|
I bet in the same category as all these other subs $150 or under $86 Walmart power acoustic Gothic series the black an blue in color one I feel would be awesome to put head to head test 12 inch version's of thebr power acoustik Gothicbr versus brRockville K9 brThis would Be a good match Comment from : @soundbeast39 |
|
If you keep the RMS to 500 watts, the Rockville should be good, I think they over-speced the build by a little bit I honestly like the Savard of all of them, it's a nice return of an old school company Comment from : @crazylarryjr |
|
If you had to choose 1 of these subs which would you choose? A JL audio 12w0v3, Rockville k9, or Skar sdr12 Comment from : @jordank7685 |
|
I must say that I appreciate your honesty I know that was hard to say rockville won lol Comment from : @ericwatson9771 |
|
I think you have the e v 3 Comment from : @FUCKDSS |
|
U gonna take back ur pock on 5 minutes Comment from : @jeremiahhodge6826 |
|
Up hifivega, am new to the channel, great video Comment from : @i-84grow49 |
|
Is your Rockville the V1 or V2? Comment from : @Fazz73jr |
|
Would love to see the 5 min test Good video and looking forward to seeing more Comment from : @markstrutton1075 |
|
I bought the Rockville DBcomp5 and been running it on a pair of SAv2s But I just bought a Honda CRV and been thinking of walling it and running the DBcomp5 on 6 K9 12s and just watch the haters hate 😂 Comment from : @bradgilpin9740 |
|
I've spent 30 minutes looking for the T/S params for the Cadence Ultra Drive speakers Can someone link a pic of the spec sheet? Thanks in advance Comment from : @timweis6951 |
|
Loved the review, thank you brI want to see the 5 minute RMS test, but didn't Kicker say they do the RMS test for 4 hours? Huge difference in Quality testing from a manufacturer Comment from : @MisterEE100 |
|
I cant wait to see what the best one is!!! Comment from : @MatinaRose |
|
I'm thinking about buying a K6 that is "CEA rated" for 500 watts and powering it at 250-300 watts Do you know anything about them? How do they compare to K9s? Comment from : @stevensmith1881 |
|
Amazing review and keep this up Next is 200 dollar shallow 12 shootout and 300 dollar subwoofer shoot out Comment from : @JeffAdairKTM530 |
|
Coming from guy that uses CCA!! SMH lol good video Vega Comment from : @jasonmorgan6245 |
|
I still can't get a hold of that box builder in our area Comment from : @leonardslade903 |
|
Nice video Vega but I really would have liked a more thorough review on how the subs sounded sq wise and maybe if some were being played to their limits or if some you think would do better on more power The rockville and sundown are both intriguing to me but I would definitely like to see if they can handle the power over 5 minutes at 600rms which I have on tap Comment from : @paquesepas6696 |
|
Everyones been giving me shit about the K9s but honestly I do like mine, I get that you might not be able to put full power but you do get that bang for your buck Comment from : @nycanimal691 |
|
I'm very interested in seeing the longer test Comment from : @realoutlawdave |
|
Hope to see another group of 6 budget sub shootout Comment from : @20hztremor |
|
Emf audio did a full rms test on that rockville sub and it FRiED!! Comment from : @carsonday5748 |
|
I could really hear the difference of the Savard Rap from the othersThe bass sounded deeper and more solid$30 more over others is worth it for sound quality in this price rangeOf course proper enclosures for each might change things up in sound quality Comment from : @FangOfTruth |
|
@HifiVega Well put together video For comparison purposes can you tell us the RMS watts used to test each woofer for each test? We appreciate your feedback and there just may be a new improved version being released soon Comment from : @rockvillesam3772 |
|
At least you said the K9 wasn’t rated for the fake CEA rating Rockville uses I’d still take the SD all day long just for the cooling engineering Comment from : @sfv1001 |
|
Best shallow mount next? Comment from : @gsppuffer |
|
Too bad the Pioneer TS-3003D4 isn't made any longer, I think it would have dominated this testbrbrI paid $83 a piece for mine and have been pushing them with a CAB 16001 since the amp was released, they truly are the best budget sub Comment from : @timmturner |
|
Not surprised based on the specs from last video Good shoot-out Hope you get the likes for the contest :) Comment from : @TylerStout |
|
wwwkickercom/solo-x-family Btw waz up with this guy? Comment from : @williamkillingsworth2619 |
|
I had a K9 it was ok on low power My RE121 at 3/4 volume an you would smell coil before a full song was over I sold it awhile back Not sure if the kid I sold it to still has it Now I have a T3 T2000 motor with custom recone Nice little upgrade lol Comment from : @dustypotter926 |

|
Bro I definitely agree with you you can’t beat the price for the value Comment from : @BigChris76 |
|
Please burn that k9 down for 5 minutes no way it will make it threw it Comment from : @michaelhemric5228 |
|
You test subs well dude! See if the k9 can last though Shipping on savard subs is pricey Did they all have 3 inch coils? That’s my only real question Good job man! Comment from : @workingclassperson2124 |
|
Did you just say what I think you said ??? That’s it, I’ve had it😤I’m prepping the roast for the slow cookerThis is bonkers🤥 How in the hell could you not update the AMM1 before this upload?? 👹 br✌🏽&🔉br😬 Comment from : @3RDERA |
|
One of the best cheap subs used to be the pioneer ts-w3003d4, you couldve got 2 of them for less than $150, I paid $70 for mine on amazon and it slammed for a $70 sub! They are mostly sold out now, skar sdr was close to it but I feel like the pioneer had better build quality than the sdr, the rockford p3 used to be like $125 on amazon too Comment from : @cjon24s69 |
|
Very comprehensive and well done! Already north of 2k views so brace your household for a lot more testing and a couple stinky voice coils Comment from : @elfuego4341 |
|
Seems legit I was thinking Savard and Sundown would be the last two standing but can't argue with hands on non bias test brGood video Comment from : @craftchest |
|
What frequency were you using for the spl testing? Comment from : @PURESOUND4 |
|
Good for Rockville Those poor guys needed a good ohnest uplifting video Now I hope they dont get to drunk celebrating and burn down the warehouse! Comment from : @reeferdogbassin7909 |
|
Not going to roast simply because I've actually considered these subs but curious if they would handle being powered by 1200 at 1 ohm I currently power to 8 in Vegas with this power an wow they get loud for 8 in That being said they are definitely on the edge of no longer being functional at that load If like to see the 5 minute test on this rockville! Comment from : @nickstalhood5380 |
|
man idk what it is about you but i just like you not in a weird way something about you tho is just cool i don't know what it is Comment from : @Aaron-yw2pw |
|
Crazy that you have to justify your pick because of the many stans or there Man it is what it is Rockville wins I'm not a fan of budget priced dime a dozen brands, that's just me but all the basing from sundown fans skar audio fans etc To me is just pathetic All these brands have good value for their price point even the Rockville Don't worries bout the heaters Vega You did your job and the proof is in the pudding Or video Great job as always brother Comment from : @angelvip2474 |
|
I gotta agree to disagree wif ya!!brI had the E series at the top Rockville at number 2 And the sub I'd most likely run in my own car the rap v2brBut as always your on point with the vid Cant wait for the next shootout! Ya know we gotta get a sony in on that one Comment from : @trecedaves3159 |
|
LOVE YOU BROTHER BUT ROCKVILLE DOE SUNDOWN DCSOUNDLABCOM Comment from : @johnalenwork53 |
|
Great review Glad you tested the savard Love those guys!!! Comment from : @omarmurillo5323 |
|
NICE!!! Comment from : @74midwestbass74 |
|
Great video Supporting Rockville after how they reacted would be tough but I think you’re dead on about the k9 I wouldn’t complain if I got one in a giveaway though 😉 Comment from : @gregblau8082 |
|
Need to see some vehicle testing ! Great vid brother Comment from : @CustomAudiobyJD |
|
Try the SKAR woofers in the same price range, they will surprise you Comment from : @kevincobb5182 |
|
Had a rockville k915d4 on 800 and it couldnt take iti have my e15s on 800 rms each and it takes it Comment from : @MyBlowncobra |
|
Why the sundown lcs wasn’t on there lol i’ve tried most of them subs you have I think the LCS price wise you can’t beat it Comment from : @thomasstgermain5778 |
|
Yall people better like this video! There's some broke-arse people like myself who needs one! Comment from : @CherrySquishee |
|
Outstanding information, thanks MrVega Comment from : @edwardautrey3671 |
|
Great video my man, we all enjoy these and please keep it up All great choices, but would like to see the Skar SDR in this the Rockville subs are decent subs they just need to be upfront and truthful bout the ratings, hence a lawsuit I've owned few equipment from Rockville, not bad Over all great testing and extremely helpful for us, the consumer Many blessings Comment from : @mikewaters6339 |
