You should definitely put a bunch of single 12" loaded enclosures from different companies up against each other for build quality, price, size, sound quality and overall output!

[@RyanBassForLife]

I think he needs to someday try Resilient Sounds. He still has never tested anything Resilient Sounds.

[@j-remy9832]

I would definitely like to see this go head to head with the Skar SDR loaded enclosure. Go for it Parker !!!

[@yaboiidrew3930]

Right, would be a perfect comparison

[@iTzBruss]

CT sounds way better I had both

[@RAA12586]

Yeah definitely would like to see the SDR comparison.

[@MrCoe]

SDR is the lesser sub..not by much. Ct gets deeper or Lower notes.

[@beyondthedetails]

Me and you must get up at the same time. I keep catching these videos as soon as I wake up. Much love Parker!!!

[@ParkerTheBasshead]

I appreciate you watching them man!!

[@GRNDZRO13]

That’s a solid review, would love to hear the 8’s and also the difference between the skar loaded as well

[@ThomasJambeter-eh7mi]

Yes def test the line output converter , would be a nice quick converter to test on the bench

[@williambrown2199]

Yes definitely you need to compare those . I’m actually looking at both of the brands right now . Thank you for the info that you throw out there .

[@JustAFordGuy99]

Hey Buddy, love your videos especially the budget focused ones! If possible in the future you should look into and do a review on the BlackBrick Hostile sub line. Maybe even compare it to the CT Sounds Tropo line or some other more budget offerings. I would absolutely love that review and comparison!

[@ParkerTheBasshead]

Yeah man I have t got to check them out yet but maybe I’ll grab one!

[@JamesBond-oc4gm]

I've got 4 of their ozone 12's and I like them, been great so far

6:29 Did you mean to say "Rattling NOT audible in person"?

[@donaldwilcoxjr.5212]

Needed a prefab with 2cubic ft..airspace for an American bass xr 12 dual 2 and finally bought one from ct sounds 120 bucks (tax included) to my front door in 4 days time and it is well made and sounds great ...have been a carpenter and wood worker for over 20 years and could have easily built my own but after adding up the cost for the wood and supplies the savings were so small it just didn't make since ....and if I decide to change subs may go with the meso line from cts next ....but the American Bass xr dual 2 has been amazing thus far ....

[@GHOSTGHOST-jw1mi]

Donald Wilcox I've been looking at their single boxes and they do look like they are well built and it's tuned lower then the scar evl prefab box I read 35hz on a single 12 CT Sounds box skars say 38hz the evl box single

[@donaldwilcoxjr.5212]

Box is solid .....for the price ...be hard build it for that buying dame materials ....and it does sound good ...I would tell you of it was just average ....I run a jp23v1.5 to a american bass xr12 dual 2 ....in a extended cab 98 s10....it makes enough wind to shake my back glass and windshield to the point you can see them flex ...and forget about the rear view and door mirrors can't keep them adjusted and or attached it shakes them around so bad ....

[@Mb_Music_Edits]

HeyHo Parker, I just wanted to let you know that I really apreciate your work you put in these videos and I think you should someday make your own Car-Audio-Show even if I can't come there😉. I am from Germany and love your content and I hope to someday see you. I hope you are having a great day and goodbye. Your Marian

[@knikkaknikk86]

Ct Sounds > Skar. As a company in whole. Big Congratulations to Coleman's family for stepping up.

[@skinnypedal4677]

Be interested to see a db test on music at the subs rms power. Would give us an idea what to expect in the real world 🤙

[@Grimsterrr]

The non standard hookup would kinda irk me, the reason I recently bought a pair of Skar SDRs in a prefab is to later take them out and pair them up with more SDRS for a larger build.

[@MikeAnnunziato]

Damn I could really use one of those line output converters, they are really nice

[@troybateson]

I have a pair of Skar EVL-15s that came in a prefab Skar enclosure, which they no longer sell. I’ve been running the setup for a few years with no issues. Enclosure and sub’s holding up great, not sure why they stopped making it.

[@beekaye1496]

I got the single Tropo =1x12 to replace the Rockfosgate P3 sub and i must they sound so much better. Solid bass and good clarity. I would highly recommend it but doesn’t know how long it will last though.

Does it get pretty low

The bass lift function sounds like with some stock head units they lower the bass signal, the lift might replace the removed bass notes

[@richyoung4051]

its called bass rolloff and yes irs very commen in factory headunits. im trying to figure out if my elantras hu has it because i cant tell with my ear. im planning on trying to give a call to them if theres a department that can give me info on that so i know if i need a LOC with bass restoration because they are pricey compared to the simple ones

[@ponokanaka]

Is this a Tropo or TropoXL? A comparison would be nice between this and the SDR. I think the Skar boxes are 5/8” vs CT using 3/4” though right?

[@llboodlam]

when you said rattling now audible did you mean the sub box itself at first or is it just the car? I've had some sub boxes rattling and port air noises from some boxes. I was thinking of buying the 10 inch loaded box from ct sound but after this video just wanted to clarify what you meant. Thank You.

[@Widowmaker2828]

Pretty sure he meant to type "not" audible... Been there done that in video editing. 😊

[@tedpollock3256]

Another great review! Thanks Parker!

[@BradMillsOK]

Nice! In the market currently for a budget but solid system. Maybe CT is it?

I got the 10 xl with the box and 1k rms ct sound 1000.1

[@MichaelJohnson-je2vo]

I want to see you experiment do everything wrong two mismatched Subs in one box 1 10 and 1 12 in the same box but divided two completely different amplifiers pushing two completely different Subs in the same enclosure at the same time with different tuning

[@knikkaknikk86]

Imagine 4 of these 12s on a 3k. Definitely decent. The thing with the tropos is there dont like big boxes. Dont use more then 1.75 cubes for a 12 and your golden.

Would love to see the Skar comparison!

Hi I enjoy your videos and I’ve just got to say the review of the zvx 12 made me purchase one for my self and the dust cap on mine is stiff

Bass lift is for bass roll off , for instance i have a ram 1500 with alpine "premium" and with a normal loc tapped into a door when i turn my volume up around 15/36 my bass starts turning itself down so it doesnt blow the door speakers , so i picked up the nvxPro and it fixed it 100%

So I was thinking on purchasing CT1X12 // Single 12” Kerf Port Universal Car Subwoofer Box Does this box really do 34 hz or higher or lower. I find not to many reviews. I have a 12 meso I like pair up, but I want those lows. Ct say the sub can play down to 32 hz. Not sure this box can go lower.

They probably saved .50 cent per sub. I guess that adds up over the number they'll sell.

It probably has to do with reliability as well as cost. Soldered leads is about as reliable as you can get. Plus I bet the vast majority of buyers is never going to pull the sub out.

Your 12 is not seeing much wattage at all after box rise not to mention you're starting with a 2 ohm load! JP23 would dramatically improve the output of your evl 12 without alot of voltage consumption at that 2 ohm load! Just switching to two 10s without increasing amp power is not going to get what you want!

@@danielanderson8001 I think you are wrong, my amp is definitely pushing the skar to its limits. The amp is a kicker dx 1000.1 making 1000w at 2 ohms. The woofer gets very hot on heavy bass notes

[@danielanderson8001]

1000 at 2ohm! YOU DO NOT maintain a steady 2ohm load when playing music!!!! The heat is coming from clipping to the sub because you're cranking on the volume to the point the amp can't make anymore power so it clips the signal to the sub! You will run into the same issue switching to 2 10s. Its your $ and your system so if you want to give it a shot by all means go for it! Evl is rated at 1250 rms! You have a 1000 w amp! Evl being a cheap will still handle a clean 1250w no prob.

@@danielanderson8001 thanks, so I’m probably going to take your advice with the 2 10s and swap to a bigger amp, I have a zx 2400.1 that’s 1 ohm stable would probably be easier on my electric
