Pretty disappointed in YOU Parker. I thought you would learn from the 1st review you made on this subwoofer. Your biggest failure is using that tiny box for this massive subwoofer. Your box needed to be increased by nearly 2x. This is why it kept getting stinky and surprised you didnt blow it AGAIN 😆. You got super lucky they fixed it for free as well. ITS THE. LACK OF SIZE IN YOUR BOX THAT CAUSES THIS SUB TO BLOW AND YOU SHOULD GET A LARGER BOX AND THEN DO A 3RD REVIEW. I enjoy your videos but you did this sub no justice on this review...thank you as always!!!

[@Kendrickshayesjr]

As much as you spend on the high tier subs, I know you can just build a bigger single sub box. Then everyone can really see what these subs can do

[@ScramTek]

Loving the content dude. It is possible to build one large enclosure with a tuneable port that you can use for all drivers. Give it a 15” cutout and then you only have to make a baffle for each driver that you can attach to the enclosure cutout. If you build a 4-5 cu.ft. enclosure you can then use various measured sizes of wood (attach to interior walls of enclosure with Velcro to ensure no movement) or XPS foam. Whatever you use needs to be solid/closed cell so that a 1 cu.ft. block for example actually acts as a 1 cu.ft. block when compressed by air. You can also use an external port to adjust tuning for each driver. Varying lengths of 3-4” piping. This will allow you to test each driver in the optimum box/port combination. What you’re currently doing is fun to watch, but not a fair representation of what each driver is capable of. Keep up the good work my dude!

[@lowhertzhighspl]

Exactly my thought! I think it's time he steps up his approach to testing now that he's doing so well.. and to test a Fi sub! (Fi Neo 4.11) like I have in my build on my YT channel.

[@pandabear7894]

Im surprised that Dave had the time to repair your sub. I had him build me four Sundown X8V3 with his DL Designs upgraded coils, one of them blew the tinsel lead within a few months. I tried contacting him several times, using several different methods but never got a response. I ultimately had to pay to get it repaired. I am not knocking Sundown or the subs that Dave builds but I cannot recommend him due to poor customer service and not honoring his warranty. I wish people would take pride in their work and take care of their customers.

@@ScramTek ...just get two skar vxf 12s, and you'll be happy with them versus buying and 1 12 at 900 or 500 bucks. One skar vxf 12 by itself will probably give you a real close comparison even if put next to this sundown zv6 12. The sundown would probably take more power, I'm pretty sure, but if you were looking for a everyday listening banging set up, then the skar vxf 12s will fit the bill, while saving you hundreds of dollars. Another thing, in this video, Parker is using a taramps 8k bass amp, to push that one sundown zv6 12. If he was to swap that 1 sundown zv6 12 out, and replaced it with two skar evl 12s, or 2 vxf 12s in this same set up, in this same vehicle, the two skar 12s will perform way better than that 1 sundown zv6 12. And still cost half the price for that one sundown zv6 12 inch sub. So if you are looking for sound instead of name brands to boast about, there are plenty of things to do, and brands to choose from, to get loud and still save.

Remember to invert the gasket when you invert the sub for a proper seal Parker! 😀

[@crustysleet]

@nate0 this is true, but I still invert cut one side of the gasket isn't flat but one is 90% of the time . It makes a difference in en losses that have had a few suvs ran thru and stuff

[@lowhertzhighspl]

That's a good idea. I know my Fi Neo 4.11s gasket is a lot thicker on the top side when not inverted (I have yet to invert bcuz of space restrictions but maybe if I remove the gasket and replace with my ⅛" butyl gasket tape then it'll fit. (Otherwise I'll routering out the top layer of my 3x baffle 😬). I'll post the experience on my YT channels.

[@easylooker]

What you think about the sound quality of this sub? Jonathon Price said in a video that some people compete in sound quality with these subs which I find hard to believe as I never seen it. But would be nice to have a big sub that does sound really good and accurate instead of sounding sloppy like most all the subs do.

[@09NXN06]

Agree!!

[@halcyon7005]

There's a hifi associate of Sundown called Stereo Integrity. I believe they use the same motors but a less stiff suspension to lower the fs. They seem to recommend going sealed with these. Seems they have a big following among DIY audiophiles. You may want to check them out. Though I bet the ZV6 sounds great as is.

I love these sub reviews but we are missing some huge factors when it comes to results for them. 1 being the relation between the sub and the port. That is why we get results like this that are less than exciting.

[@tidobass6048]

I agree port area and airspace is definitely a factor

[@yhprumhsoj]

@@tidobass6048 this is a great example of what to expect when upgrading subwoofers and what to expect as far as gains. If you throw money down on a woofer like this your probably going to be throwing money down on a new enclosure as well.

[@snauspockets9924]

Each sub has specific recommendations for Port size and cubic ft of airspace. If you aren't using those then it's not going to sound as good as it can.

[@yhprumhsoj]

@@snauspockets9924 right, my point exactly. And a subwoofer of this caliber is going to really expose that..

[@ScramTek]

Almost all these reviews aren’t that useful apart from visual enjoyment. Using the same enclosure for every driver means that some are going to perform well and others won’t. I get that Parker buys a lot of the drivers he reviews and that building an enclosure for every one gets pricey. But I can’t understand why manufacturers will provide one of their drivers but not an enclosure with it. It’s not that much additional expense for them just to ensure that their product performs as well as they want it to. This Zv6 should be getting 150+ dB. He’s got enough power on tap. It’s being held back by the wrong box/port combo

[@brianrich7828]

We’ve told Parker to use boxes made for the subs he tests. People have offered to build boxes for him for free. Instead he puts them in boxes not made for them and the result is meh.

[@db2loud]

I'm sure all the subs that he has tested probably could have done better in a box built for them but all the subs were tested in the same box and there were quite a few that did better numbers at a much reasonable price range

[@courden1]

@@db2loud generally because this lower priced subs in that enclosure would be closer to spec so it’s almost in the optimal enclosure/power. With this sub it’s sooo much bigger so it displaces soo much more airspace & needs more of box to get it to spec, as well as a bigger port for the airflow this sub can produce. That’s why cheaper subs seem better because their almost in the perfect circumstances.

The box what you using for testing is optimised for Sundown X12 V2, then of course it have the biggest chance that it will be the loudest - and obivously in your case it was up to date. I'm not saying that it is wrong, just not as accurate SPL results as it could be, because the subs you tested, had not equal chances, because of a box what is not optimal for them - maybe for some close, but not optimal. I mean with this, in my opinion 1 of DeafBonce or American Bass, or Skar sub maybe would outperform the X12 V2 in a proper box made for them, but maybe not... I think this Z easily will outperform the X V2 in a box optimised for it, so yeah, I would like to see it in a proper box. And also an idea: custom boxes made for your best subs. My case: I have a Gladen RS-X 6.5 sub, I made a custom ported box optimised for it's TS parameters from the specs sheet like almost everybody doing when designing a custom box for a sub with not the manufacturer's recommended box specs. I found out that a Sundown X6.5 have similar shaped transfer function graph curve in any box like that Gladen sub, even their peaks are at the same freq in any box in a same listening enviroment, so I compared them with simulations: I simulated the X6.5 in the Gladen's box, and the Gladen was louder by few tenths of dB at the peak + up to 3-3.5 dB off from the peak on it's RMS power (250 W) like the X6.5 on it's RMS power (300 W), but the X6.5 not reached it's xmax, the Gladen just touched it's xmax, because for X6.5 is acceptable a bigger net volume box. After this I designed a custom box for the X-6.5, the X-6.5's peak was louder like the Gladen's in the Gladen's box, and also simulated in the X6.5 box both drivers, had the same transfer function differences like I wrote down just before on their RMS powers. But Gladen overpassed it's Xmax, so, I needed reduce the power for it in simulations, and after that obivously X6.5 became much louder like the Gladen at the peak, even Gladen was quieter at the peak like in it's box, but still a tiny bit louder off from the peak like the X6.5, just now I can't prove this with real tests, because Sundown's stuff is 1 - hardly avialable in my country, or 2 - it is way too expensive mainly because of shipping payments and similar things... So, in any means, boxes optimised for the given drivers giving always the best results like for me: Gladen outperforms X6.5 in a box made for Gladen, because the Gladen box is a bit small for the X6.5, and X6.5 outperforms the Gladen in a box optimised for X6.5, because the X6.5 box is too big for Gladen, and even X6.5 outperforms the Gladen at the peak freq when both are simulated in their boxes = both subs have very similar sounding, Sundown is somewhat louder, but needs a bigger space, Gladen is somewhat more musical/daily, and needs a smaller place...maybe there's something similar reason why all (mainly "flaghip") subs you tested were quieter like the X12 V2 - maybe for some of them is a need for a bigger box because it's not using the driver's max output potential, or some of them is a need for a smaller box because the drivers starting to have bigger excursion at 70 percent of Bl on smaller power like in an optimal box... Or let's say even if the X12 V2 is truely the loudest, but I think the order from 2nd place downwards would be different for sure.

My 15in Skar VXF in a Gately 3.5 box sounds so much better though...you know, because it's in a Gately 3.5 box that matches the box size and port size recommendation from Skar. Port size and cubic ft...you gotta use the right box for each sub. Get the recommendation for thos from the sub manufacturer.

All these large-roll subs are pigs with those long coils and heavy surrounds... 400g Mms.

Hey Parker, from your experience what are the “MUST HAVES” with DIY systems? As in the gadgets you use to measure power, hz, dB, etc. I installed my 1st system, basically half assed tuning and would like to get it proper before doing more. Thanks!

[@StrongBodySecrets8]

How it sounds is all personal preference, I recommend you buy a voltage meter to make sure your able to monitor everything safely whenever listening

[@williereed6418]

Zv6 12 vs American Bass xmaxx 12 , your opinion???

[@ragincajun5957]

You are lacking on port area for that sub, what is the overall dimensions for that enclosure you put it in? Not all 2.5 cubic foot enclosures have the same external or internal dimensions.

[@seanjulian8013]

Let's see this vs the Deaf Bonce 3512R!!!

[@mikew6135]

I thought the golden rule is clean power. I saw numerous times where your amp clipped. What gives Parker? Do as I say not as I do?

[@t.w.i.t.c.h8711]

Can you review the American Bass XMAXXX 12

[@haroldwilliams8242]

Nice! I'm about to play with my zv5s soon. Beast subs.

[@TheSpidersoftheworld]

what are the deminsion's on the box if you could please help me out trying to build a box for the same exact sub.

[@elawood538]

yeeeeh man Buzzin bass head time. whoooooooooooo!

[@chadstokes6532]

Amazing... dona review of the American bass Godfather 12s or 15s.. they are amazing

[@spuds7677]

My team mate has a pair of Resilient Sounds Platinum 12s running a 150.1 at the headrest on 2443 watts at 34Hz in the trunk. They sound good and take some abuse. RS FTW

[@tim4cn759]

Parker I have a question?? Have you ever tried a psi star 🌟 power 5000k Amplifier?? And what happens if you have two power connections and two grounds for the Amplifier and just hook up one of each?? Is it bad for the Amp?

[@215sinakia7]

Run the risk of clipping the amp and or throwing into protect.

[@therandomman6647]

I want to see Sacrilegium 1 by Zeal & Ardor on one of those! It would be pretty brutal

[@dou8letap82]

How does it sound with just normal music??

[@savageplaylist5891]

What is the blue car in the background

[@ParkerTheBasshead]

WRX!

[@nathanwhite8931]

Would you recommend 2 sundown sa v2 10s. I’m looking at those or resilient sounds gold 10 or b2 riot 10s. Which one would you recommend

[@BeatsByThePound]

The same box he blew it in lol nice!

[@christopherparis6841]

Didn't Rockville pun hit 144.3 or some shit just curious it's a hell of a price spread

[@Basstaco69]

If you live close to sundown will you be at the bass show next year?

[@quinton337]

Any thoughts on doing amp reviews to see if one pushes harder than another one like Korean vs Brazilian

[@anilkumartenglikar1945]

[@Jordancade2010]

[@salsanbean]
