I think your initial point is valid, the test imo was better for the strato because it used the available box size better. You need to redo this test with an enclosure made to specs for each woofer.

Those Black CT Sounds amplifiers surprised me on the amp dyno I saw recently. Definitely a good value and it put out like 1000 watts over rated @1 ohm. I've always liked their subs too. The Meso and Strato subs have solid performance. If you can afford a pair of Strato or Meso 15's and a good amplifier from CT, or a JP23v2, or a Taramps Smart 5k, you can have a great system. Just make sure you have a good enclosure and solid power, and CT Sounds won't disappoint you.

[@ParkerTheBasshead]

Yeah I was surprised as well!

[@emersonmayeaux2482]

Although not the usual set up, I am running 2 jbl stadium subs in a fox box in my ram 1500. Powering them is a 2002 Rockford Fosgate Punch 800.2 S. Amplifier at 4 ohm stereo. It is ear splitting loud and clean at the same time. The sound quality is amazing. Also running jbl gto series 6.9 speakers front and back in the doors with a Fosgate t-600 x 4 amp. I am very happy with this set up. Great video and very informative. Thru trial and error I have found the results the same as you. The better the quality sub you buy the more the output.

[@Mr.Robert1]

Rockford Fosgate a reliable company that's been making great equipment since the day they went into business people tend to forget about these brands and go with this new stuff thinking it's better because it's less expensive sometimes it is most of the time it's not

[@Argedis]

Great test and I was also surprised by the results. I always believed beefier subs would only benefit when you played them at high power (near their RMS) Your test showed they were louder with less power in many instances.

[@Edward135i]

I'd like to see this video with Dayton audio, their cheapest 12in vs their most expensive. I know their stuff seems to outperform what they say on the box.

[@TimpBizkit]

Beefy subs are better for horn loaded enclosures (the driver pushes on the narrow end of a gradually expanding tunnel of air), and very small enclosures. But as a direct radiator, the air is thin and doesn't need huge magnets and heavy cones. You will need a larger enclosure for the less beefy sub, but it won't drink as much amplifier power for the same SPL.

[@Brian1.]

That CT Sounds amp is pretty powerful. I am running the 1500 watt mono block on 1 Kicker L7R 15 and it shakes the neighbors windows! I hope CT Sounds keep these amps at the same pricepoint, a super value.

[@Mr.Robert1]

Kicker does not play when it comes to sound, wattage, durability, quality, people are getting lost with these new brands forgetting how great kicker really is. they will never disappoint.

[@CrystalClearSQL]

The coils were getting hot is why there were losses at more power over time. Great test, i just think there should have been cool off times. Love your videos Parker... but Derrick at sundown unofficial was seeing the same issue testing the SA v2 15 prototype, same exact issue.

[@micahtolleson9735]

yes i was about to say that it depends on the coils how many there are so on and so forth i'm no audio car expert but yes i agree

[@hopskustomaudio]

That wasn't a big enough difference in db to be able to hear it. So no reason to get the more expensive subs. I've got 2 $60 Audio Legion 10s that are underpowered and they are doing 142db at 35hz. Using the exact same db meter.

[@WariorMageThief]

All about enclosure design and vehicle acoustics. For example- I had two fifteens (~$150 double stacked 3 inch vc) on 2k in my Jeep and it sounded fantastic on the low notes very defined in a box 6.4 tuned to 32hz. Now I am rocking a single 15 on 2500 ($600 triple stacked 4 inch vc, it's massive) in a 4.2 box tuned to 32 in my 2003 mustang. So a huge difference in air volume and acoustics. In the mustang, a 32 hz bass not does not have the length to fully unload and it gets bottled up and sounds muddy. Plus the fact that the box has so much airspace, it peaks super low and exasperates the problem. When I roll down the windows, the issue mostly goes away and I gain noticeable spl. Just my experience Edit: I should say that the difference in air volume is per sub not the total volume. So the box that I had for my 2 15s after sub displacement was probably around 6 cubes which is actually slightly smaller than the recommended size for their combined cone size. 2 15s > 1 18 and a good ported enclosure for an 18 is ~5.75-6 cubes

[@WariorMageThief]

[@Dad-Bod_Hobbies86]

ct sounds have amazing subs. i switched from skar to them and no complaints at all they sound good on 1500 watts. im satisfied. cool that you are spreading there name.

[@Boomie0419]

I run a 10" Strato on the CT 1500.1D in a Truspec ported box @ 1ohm. It sounds Great for my daily driver. The Truspec box is only 0.1cu ft bigger than what the sub calls for and is tuned to 35hz... Parker, love your videos man

[@TheRepos296]

A well executed experiment, CT sounds I think have very affordable equipment, unlike some other companies who dramatically increase their prices, they have remained a true budget brand for the average guy. If I were just starting in car audio I'd definitely recommend them. Solid equipment for a decent price.

[@mburgiful]

when i got my strato v2s on pre order i would have went with the 18s but they had the v1 baskets posted and they said they would offer recones and never did... only the mesos 8s had recones also the ts changed a few times on the same subs a couple times mainly rms.. my pair of strato v2 where good for a rf prime 1200.1 at 1 ohm but couldnt handle a rp 4500.1 at 4 ohm

[@gregblau8082]

Great video. Every video I've seen like this and personal experience suggest efficiency doesn't mean much. I would guess the higher impedance rise (lower power) on the stratos may have to do with them wanting more air space plus having a larger displacement means it's making the box effectively smaller with higher tuning especially because it seems like there's more difference at higher frequency

[@aliciaANDanthonySandoval]

Ive always liked the way Ct sounds look. Nice comparison 😉👍🏼

[@audiedickert1745]

Brother. Love your videos you've actually helped me pick between speakers a couple of times before. I just wanted to maybe make a suggestion. You know how your doing the tests. Changing the frequency and then running though the different volume responses.. I think the tests might be a little more beneficial if you changed the frequency with every volume test. I know it's a little more work but I personally feel like it would be easier to tell the difference between the effects of different frequencies. Opposed to the affects of different volumes. It might seem like a little bit of a hassle but it would emphasize the affect more

[@scrapenbass493]

00:15 Jesus...scared the sh#t outta me

[@hopskustomaudio]

The reason for the difference in power is bc of impedance rise. Subs with bigger motors and more motor force typically have more rise. So those stratos actually could have used a bigger amp than what they sent you if they wasn't able to get to their power limit before the amp clips.

[@gabrielsena3194]

Better test would be to put them in boxes made to spec for each sub

The box size is everything. Tuning is everything. Power is everything. The Sub's power handling is nothing without proper electrical.

[@lifeonadime4703]

Very interesting and good test but tbh, I mean if bigger, beefier subs didn't get louder, why would people upgrade to them and why would they make them? You should post up the sensitivity (aka know as efficiency) of each sub as well because that's how "loud" they should be at 1w (apparently). Bigger/more beefy subs are USUALLY more efficient and do better on the same sized amp(but NOT always!) Iv seen a few out there that are "weaker" subs that have better fs and are more efficient as well. Still a cool video 👌 always enjoy your stuff

[@lifeonadime4703]

Edit: also the t/s should tell you port size, box volume, and lots of stuff to help decide between one or another sub(as I'm positive you already know this lol) one could just go the Fi audio route and have a sub specd whatever t/s parameters you want lol but, that's big $$$

After this test. The numbers show a very small difference. Wondering about the actual sound it's self? That's the most important bottom line for me. Was not able to tell on the smartphone bluetooth system I was using to listen.

Absolutely. The Tropo is more efficient. Also, the Tropo is geared more towards sound quality. But both are good drivers.

[@evilinside5984]

@@Chuck_Sanders On paper, the specs showed that the tropo was 2.5 db louder, but those are @ 1watt=totally useless for comparing subwoofers max spl. If you would have seen parkers results, in this video, you would know that the beefier subwoofer performed better on less power. And the gap would become greater with even more power.

[@Chuck_Sanders]

@@evilinside5984 this isn't a "test" at all. The Tropo is more efficient, regardless. Higher efficiency drivers perform better in larger enclosures, where as less efficient drivers are suited for smaller enclosures. Using software like DATS and Woofer Tester to pull actual TSP'S woukd help him greatly. I have said in numerous videos, he shoukd purchase DATS or an equivalent program. And modeling the driver in enclosure software to see what the driver needs for enclosure volume, and tuning helps tremendously. Thus providing where the driver will reach full xmax, and or exceeding the xmax at 70-80% of the max power it sees. Youll also be able to adjust tuning, to get the port velocity(speed) correct, for the enclosure. Throwing two different drivers, in the same enclosure, isn't a test. Also, this is comparing apples to oranges. More efficient drivers, need less power to meet there performance goals. The fact that the Tropo held its own, against a "beefier" driver, shows that. Put them in the proper air volume, and tune them accordingly, to show a true test. There is more to a driver, than just being "beefier" and he gave a lot of incorrect info right off the bat, and the Fs is a useless parameter basically, and the spider isn't the only limiting factor, when it comes to xmax at all. Good video though, for watching subs play. 👍

[@evilinside5984]

@@Chuck_Sanders Even though this test is not optimal, it is very useful for the average person, who may not have access to a local custom shop, or be able to afford a custom enclosure. Knowing they can buy an affordable prefab enclosure, that mates well with a subwoofer, that they can get shipped to their door is awesome. Although it would be great to have 3 custom enclosures tested, the smallest, the exact middle, and the largest that the company recommends. Then test each model in all 3 enclosures.

[@BlenderRookie]

I'm surprised by these results. There are a lot of variables at play. It's easy to assume it's about cone surface area and cone excursion and typically that's the volume recipe. However, when it comes to the mechanics of it, a stronger motor, will more accurately reproduce sound. Anytime an applied force(magnetic in this case) has to accelerate a mass(the cone), a stronger motor structure will be more capable of accelerating the cone more in sync with the music's intent. Basically, a signal is sent to the coil to move the cone. But there's always a tiny lag before the magnetic field can defeat the mass of the cone. I think after watching this, the more powerful motor lessens that lag, when compared to a less powerful motor. Essentially, the more powerful motor is more efficient with the given input power. However, I suspect that would change if the frequency was set to the cheaper subs resonant frequency. However, I could very well be wrong. The results so fat has surprised me.

[@robsorgdrager8477]

There so many different things that make a " loud " driver. If you were to go simply from a amount of db the the amount of power they can flow would be the only important parameter . A lot of what we call " loud " is more about the pressure a driver can produce. Here a beefy motor is important. To move the diaphragm of the driver fast enough and far enough while resisting physics requires a good amount of electo-mechanical force. But we also care about sound quality and reproduction. This tends to favor a more efficient driver. A stiff yet light cone, good spiders, a very reactive coil. Imagine what it takes to nail all of this in one driver . Imagine the materials required to achieve excellent sound quality and responsiveness, yet be strong enough to allow a giant , super efficient motor structure man handle the diaphragm parts without destroying them but keep it affordable...seems like a big job to me.

[@Argedis]

Yes but it's interesting to see the beefier sub got louder with less power in many of the results. Higher power subs generally have very stiff spiders. I always thought you would benefit only if you played them at RMS power.

Are you trying to get SPL? how much room do you have or are willing to give up for your box? How much money can you afford or are willing to spend on your sound system? I have always based my systems on bang for the buck. Always wanted a very good sounding system, never wanted to spend A fortune. Had other things that were more important in life. Like my family, my home, my cars, my children's education. Going on vacation and more.

Bang for the buck is true in many aspects of life.

I like the painful hurting bass. Not so much loud. Which one was better for that?
