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!!!

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.

All these large-roll subs are pigs with those long coils and heavy surrounds... 400g Mms. Moral of the story, if you actually intent to play music (targeting 35Hz+) you're better off with a conventional surround with less moving mass like a DC XL SPL or a Sundown U. With correct box loading there is no need for 40mm of xmax for bass extension as the f3 is dictated by motor force (qts) and volume. All these large-stroke subs are mainly good for

@@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.

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.

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.

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

[@madrx2]

[@crustysleet]

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.

[@nandocastillo8366]

[@breedam]

[@derkchurk5879]

They need to build them better for 900 bucks, you should be able to push them that hard on clean power... What's the point of all that Xmax if you can't push it to the point where you can use all of it without it gettin stinky, It would be cool if you could review the em audio 3k and 5k or even some of the psi platform 5 and 4 with the upgraded options.. I love sundown and what they do, but I think those brands above offer a better value, even the Savard high output subwoofers like the ho12. Which is like 450 but handles 2k every day.

[@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.

[@darkxd8366]

they will fix your sub for free but when i bought 4 sa 12 v2s BRAND NEW $1550 ON ONE ORDER two of them blew as soon as i wired them up even correctly wired. sundown is Hella mean on customer service lmao. short story i have a box for 4 sundown sa 12 v.2s(4th order box) i wired the subs correctly and two of them smoked in about a day then i contacted sundown, the tech there was yelling at me on the phone saying i don't know how to wire subwoofers. i get 2 new re-cone kits throw them in and rewire the same and correct way and i haven't had a problem since(5 months later). i KNOW MY STUFF but sundown's warranty is bogus. they only helped parker because they want to ''ACT'' like there good lmao

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.

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.

[@PBasschannel]

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.

Bro, that's not even a test. That box isn't close to big enough. I mean I get you're not trying to buy a new box for every test. But that's probably not even half of the airspace that woofer needs. Probably a quarter. Even inverted... And yeah it might bump the way you got it but put that in the size of enclosure it calls for and it would just bloom.. literally... I'm sure you know with all the testing you done and as much as you know about systems that nothing kills bass more than not having enough airspace..

I haven’t had an Fi before so I can’t really say! I do know the Fi stuff if pretty nice tho

[@markwentz8332]

Damn i gotta get the box for mine built! Thanks for posting these motivational video's for me Parker! Two SAZ-1500 anniversary editions should get it moving in my Ranger

[@Asap_joser]

Skar is for the people. They understand that not everyone has bank

[@mad_mechanic]

Not really parkers fault there not the right spiders in my opinion for street use if that makes any sense

[@KyrieEleisonMaranatha]

Naw, sundowns are notorious for stinking the first few months. You certainly didn't "push her" with only 4600 watts. I've seen those eat twice that much.

[@derkchurk5879]

No sub should ever stink dude...

[@KyrieEleisonMaranatha]

@@derkchurk5879 you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Voice coils certainly can stink.

[@derkchurk5879]

@@KyrieEleisonMaranatha yeah if you push it too hard especially with shit power, a voice coil should never off gas for any reason, I don't care if it is black coated or not. Sounds like you don't know how to set up or tune your stuff at all.

[@kevinriley5979]

I just installed a X15v3 a wk ago, got my smart 5 turned down to break it in. I smelled a coil today and got freaked out, im nowhere near clipping. Is that normal?

[@KyrieEleisonMaranatha]

@@kevinriley5979 yep, beat on em proper and they get stancky.

[@cryogenikaffliktion1769]

Why do you always test with the same songs?

[@Jordancade2010]

Believe it or not I actually bought this sub and the Skar Audio ZVX-12 and the ZVX 12 is louder

[@kenneththompson9889]

Sundown Monster Lows!!!!!🦺👍

[@MayzDayz007]

Keepin coming, next 18" but, not to soon! Make us wait ✋️ 😂😂😉

[@MayzDayz007]

W7AE3... 😲😲😲

[@NathanOakley1980]

Does it rise like a mofo? As I understand it, having a massive motor results in more rise?!

[@NathanOakley1980]

I saw 1.2 ….. Wired at 0.5 ohm, that’s substantial impedance rise (box rise) 😝

[@fusiondensity3287]

It will rise like the Chicago skyline from 60 miles away

[@mattadams7922]

Buddy you need twice the box you got for that monster and that sub is a 6th order bandpass monster. It will go hard in a 4th order too but 6th order will make it go bonkers. That 1 sub is a 150 db all day sub in that truck with that amp

[@adrianheras8892]

Can I buy i buy the subwoofer from you please

[@BeckettCarroll]

hey i’m getting one of these for my bronco but im wondering what sub you would recommend me to get i’ve heard people recommend a salt 4 and some an sbf or something but im not sure what i want or what’s better.

[@Legalizeranch420]

You could easily put 6-8k on a single zv6 me personally i would go with a 6k like the salt6 or jp63

[@iakopklein8218]

i like that sub moves when you played coca cola

[@elawood538]

I'd buzz if parker actually got a sundown sponsorship. they are the best 12 inch subs for sure. "that ive heard and felt to date"

[@akjohnny5997]

better he's independent, at least i hope he is

[@newmoney8128]

What he doesn't tell you is that it takes a tremendous amount of power to run that sub after you spend about $1,800 bucks for two subs You're still looking at another $3,000 for the proper amp then buying the proper alternator running the big three and maybe a cap in the back plus two extra batteries versus the V3 you'd save more money and still get the low base if you're not in competition or entering in a competition this speaker isn't even worth having

[@MannuhFestIt]

Coming soon: Parker doing 6 Zv6 12s 😂

[@ParkerTheBasshead]

That would ruin me financial 😂😂😂

[@MannuhFestIt]

@@ParkerTheBasshead it’s time we get you that KZbin money then 😂

[@mattsnider5904]

How much wattage did it peak at for 145.3 score? Seeing if it's fair comparison to that EM sub you put 11 thousands watts. Oh you said 5000 watts. Could it handle more than that?

[@mikew6135]

Who would have thought that reducing the volume of the huge box would help. Someone tell Parker that box displace matters. A smaller box will help with power handling too Parker. It's physics bother. Too large of a box is basically like free air providing no support for the subs suspension

[@anilkumartenglikar1945]

Hello sir I want use ZV 6 dual 12 subwoofer. So say me which is best Mono Block Amplifier use its....

[@korithebarber2920]

Y’all keep hating on skar ,, I love mine

[@brandoncrawford3917]

I wouldn’t pay 900 for it no way rather get 2 Skar vxfs for 600 have 300 for a box period Skar for the win

[@caydenwilson707]

You got to pay to play homie

[@johndough4338]

Two skar VXF 12s for the price will sound wayyy Better than that one sundown zv6 12, and will be cheaper. Trust me, the skar vxf is not much different from this sundown zv6, especially if we're talking about being loud with good sound quality. Peace
