Pioneer sub can throw 138.7dB with 500W RMS, American Bass can throw 139.dB with 1000W RMS. But the Pioneer is throwing pretty loud sound for 500W RMS rating.....

A buddy bought some pioneer 12's from Walmart built a pretty big enclosure a little more than recommended to run in back of his Tahoe. He ran a soundstream tarantula 2400w 2 channel I won some years ago from a soundstream slogan contest. Anyway, those pioneers hit so stupid hard and loud. It was ridiculous how much bass output the would do. Eventually almost a year in they finally gave out. I'm sure they were in to big of box and over powered even though the soundstream probably didn't do rated, but definitely put some serious power out still. Point of the story never underestimate budget subs 😅👍

Fron what I've seen tearing into subs if I had to make a wager I would guess the pioneer has a 2" 2 layer coil. The Polk db12 was rated at 375w and that's what it had for a coil, that size seems to be very common on low power budget subs...

Pioneer Champs kind of last forever. Hard not to like that. Wish we could figure out what to treat the surrounds with. Not sure if ArmorAll is the right thing.

I actually know exactly why u hate the sound quality of the pioneer its unloading in that box it needs a cubic foot less of air space and a way smaller port the whole point of that sub is to get high output in a fairly small box with low power I feel like this comparison is not good because most of the other subs need over 2 cubic foot of box so your box is within their specs and the sensitivity is 92 it's a better sub you just have to understand what the specs are telling you because pioneers specs actually mean something unlike some of these other companies

You seriously need to match Subwoofers into their recommended boxes, As Both Subs in this example actually required smaller Cabins, the Pioneer is best suited for a 1.5 cubic ft ported box for it to have a response down to 15Hz -3db point, the American Bass in the correct box, not sure what model, "Good for Ported or Good for Sealed" should be able to get as low as 19Hz at it's -3db point. You also need to measure how flat their frequency response is as well, also measure for any resonances, because not everyone is just interested in a Sub that just thwacks and thwacks until it's dead, some of us if not most prefer smooth clean unadulterated sensation, you know when you hear and feel it.

I had 2 of the dx scv ab 12s on a kicker zx1500.1 doing 143+ db for over a year before 1 blew. After that I became a American bass fan. I had 2200 watts on 2 of the newest model tnt 15s and they were hardly moving and beating harder than the dx 12s I had. I had the dual 12 open chamber box with the ported end and my 15 Memphis box I had the tnts in was the same design and my favorite box design so far for only 2 subs under 2k watts. My amps were 1500 and 2240 watts but running a stinger dc1200 battery and all stock electrical I doubt I was even pushing 1000 watts out of any of my setups so 143.4+ DB out of American bass budget lines was pretty good. The tnt 15s we're good for 2 years till I sold my SUV and then the subs cause they wouldn't fit in my car.

I feel the entry line drivers tend to “sound better” in sealed enclosures and good for “bass fill” rather than straight up bass If that makes any sense 😅 Great video can’t wait to see the top 4!

I agree. I run a pair of the Crossfire C3 10's in a sealed enclosure and while they are not Focals they sound very good to me. Very responsive and they do go low so not so sure about the "bass fill" part

I haven’t used that JBL so I don’t have an opinion on that one. As far as the Pioneer it does ok on low bass, but I wouldn’t say it does well on low bass in the enclosure I used it in

The sensitivity on the pioneer is prolly 89 while the ab is prolly 87 so actually the pioneer should have been hier db than it was I have had some of the pioneer subs I got to sell pioneer should never have put champion series on that model they downgraded the champion series badly and the big plastic is just a gimmick to make them look like their big spl subs no one should ever fall for gimmicks on subs hifi u really should try the new Sony subs they are really good sub beefy motors nice coils and the sound is really low.
