Resilient Sounds Gold Subwoofer review and SPL test on Taramps Smart 5 Bass

[@csj9619]

"ATTACK and DECAY" I think is what you mean when explaining how "punchy", "slappy" or "sharp" the woofer sounds. Thanks for all the videos man. I prefer your stuff over the other car audio channels. No stupid jokes in every video, no talkin' bad about bros, knowledgeable, factual, quantifyable facts and truth. Great job.

[@HiFiVector]

Thanks man yea I try to be drama free and just be nice to everyone. I try to help people by explaining as much as I can about the products and the sound because I know most people can’t listen to 50 subs, amps etc so I try to help people find something that they will be happy with. Appreciate the kind comment!

I got 6 platinum 15s! Resilient Sounds FTW

[@leroybaca8346]

I have 2 15 platinum's and they are insane i love them.for shits and giggles i bought 2 gold 8,s and i was very impressed with them as well.

[@jkfsh9582]

Are the platinums louder or do they handle more power than the gold v2s?

[@leroybaca8346]

There the next level up .but ya my Platinum 15s 2000rms 4000max but they can take a lil more .

Hi! I have a stereointegrity SQL 15 in a 3cubed 33hz box. I know they call for a bigger box. Thought I could get away with a little smaller box. Sounds ok, but wondering would these sound better for my application?

[@HiFiVector]

The RS are incredible v1 or v2 both I would definitely give them a try they are some of my favorite subs.

[@cool4real82]

@@HiFiVector Thanks bro

[@EthanMiller-z8z]

Which one takes the cake: these or the vxf’s?

[@HiFiVector]

That’s a hard one the RS gold v1 are smoother sounding as the vxf are punchier that’s the main difference. Both hit lows well but the vxf handle a little more power. I would say the vxf take the cake. But the RS gold V2 are the ultimate.

[@johnniebeard8647]

How about ultra audio lv 12 100bucks and looks great?

How do these compare to the Skar vxf in power handling?

[@jimmythebudgetbuilder7197]

Have you ever tryd the harmony audio 15s monolith subs?

[@HiFiVector]

Not yet

[@thanosthrone9893]

Hi-fi what’s the difference between 12 gold v1 and the Brutus 12? Because I love the price they at right now

[@HiFiVector]

The Rs Gold V1 has better SQ than the Hifonics brw 12”. It’s more accurate and hit the lows a little better. I love the Hifonics brw subs for for some reason Hifonics didn’t give the 12” a big enough motor. The 8”, 10” and 15” versions bare killer. Just the 12”. I think they got lazy and used the motor from the 10” and n the 12”. It still sounds good just not punchy and for rock , metal and fast bass the accuracy is a little weak. So in the 12” size resilient sounds good V1 would be my choice.

[@thanosthrone9893]

Thanks so much for the in-depth explanation that’s sad the put a small motor on the 12 what a bad idea since it’s the most popular size! I might get the 10 since I saw in your video it’s near perfect! I wish they had it in 18! So I just ordered the resilient gold 12 v1 I honestly thing for 200 bucks there’s nothing in the market that comes close at this point!

[@HiFiVector]

Xlnt subs for sure enjoy it!

[@annihilationindustries1990]

WhTs up with Resilient sounds dropping alot of the Tara amps amplifiers from there website?

[@HiFiVector]

Not sure?

[@tighteyzs]

These badboy would work well for a budget build. A good balance between affordable & quality.

[@chachayteti4life]

When setting your amp gain, does it matter if the vehicle is off or on?

[@HiFiVector]

More voltage can change things so to me it’s good to do it when vehicle is running. Lower voltage can cause it to clip earlier.

[@SoberBassHead]

Very impressive 😊😊😊

[@beepityboop-ARES-]

Do u think a 3500 watt amp skar audio can lift these up?

[@HiFiVector]

Yea the RS Gold v1 are pretty efficient so they would do well with that amp.

[@bubbawubba2307]

What are your top 5 subs?

[@HiFiVector]

I like SQL so keep that in mind everyone has different preferences and there are different price categories but…. My top subs right now are in no particular order… Sundown x 12”, skar vxf 15”, resilient sounds gold v1 15”, Hifonics BRW 10”, American bass XR 12”. Skar vxf 12”. There are more but these are some of my favorite. For hitting lows. Getting loud and sound quality.

Hi, I have the same size box 8cu ft , do you think these would benefit of i made a smaller box? Vs keeping it?

[@HiFiVector]

For sound quality two of these 15s in an 8 ft.³ box is good but you will lose some power handling if you are trying to push it past its limits. If if you are trying to overpower them to the max, I would go 6 ft.³.

[@rudyrue07]

[@joshholden8561]

8 cubic feet box ? The specs say a 1.8 cubic foot box for a 15 is pretty small the huge box will cut power handling abilities down quite a bit did u see that happen im surprised a 8 cube box disnt rip the spiders asap.

[@HiFiVector]

The site says 2 to 3 cu ft for a 15 but in my opinion this subs needs at least 3 cuft minimum. But for sound quality and the lows 4 cu ft sounds amazing. But if you are going to over power them then yes 3 cu ft would help them take more power.

[@pinguipema3353]

So basically gained 1 db with the v2s. ?

[@HiFiVector]

The v1 were way over powered the v2 handle more so we’re not being pushed that hard on the smart 5 so if you ran like an 8k on the v2 and get them closer to max you will gain even more.

[@pinguipema3353]

@@HiFiVector oh i see. I'm debating on going with this model , american bass xfl , or skar audio vxf , i like it loud but with sq also and i love the lows too. So which one you recommend ?

[@HiFiVector]

Then go with the vxf or RS gold for sure. And between the two the main difference is the vxf is tighter and slappier and the RS gold is a little smoother less slappy. But other than that box sound xlnt and hit the lows similarly.

[@pinguipema3353]

​@@HiFiVector does the xfl get louder than the vxf and rs ?

Do you think it’s worth paying $154-200 more for the V2?

Yes big improvement from v1 to v2. But if your on a budget v1 still sound great.

[@jccoffey23]

my box tuning was 35 but my sub liked 40

[@95Sn95]

I think XRs have similar qualitys they play kick drum great but still hit the lows nice n buttery and they wake up on not a ton of power, on my sons 1200w pioneer that used to be mine will push 2 xr15s nicely they really wake up on my 5k just seem way more athoritive but great on his 1200w amp he did a 142db on music in a tahoe with stock electrical, not crazy but great for a small amp. That GM D9701.1 dynoed at 1203 certified or uncertified and 1763w dynamic, thats respectable for an older half bridge 1200, there like $200 sibs now and there indestructible... he clips the hell out them im sure and never stink i had them on that 1200 an apcle 1800 and a cab45 and they never stunk once, ive gotten everything else stinky even my custom 400oz 8 layer 3"x2.5" coiled 15s i built on that cab. I have over $1000 in those 2 subs and they have considerably more output than the XRs but Hindsight i should have kept them and bought 4 more XRs, with 6 i would have had way more output and saved $200+ but then again my boy wouldnt have em and he loves them, he sits outside in driveway cranking it and the house is rattling that gets old lol. but those golds seem like a great option also, But all of that is just my opinion and whats that just another regular joes 2¢

[@CaseyFarrelly]

I have 2 of these, 15" 2ohm d.v.c. that I wired down to half an ohm in a sealed box, guesstimating, 3 q.f a woofer, so 6 sq ft total, being pushed by an old school Orion 2500D, Chrome Surfboard Edition, amplifier....and also..... 2 Kicker 15" L7S,4ohm d.v.c., in a slotted port box , a little bigger than the Gold Series box, wired to 1 ohm, pushed by a 2019ish Hi Fonics Brutus BXX3000.1D AND...not comparing squares and circles, but I feel the Resilient 15s maybe need a ported enclosure to match the "lower sounding" Kickers. If that makes sense. A tuned sine wave of a particular Hz,let's say 20hz, over a period of time, the same 20hz, is not a true test of a subwoofer, to me, where in music ,bass could go from 40-400hz , depending who's playing the bass guitar! This is when I realized that all subwoofers are not created equal....and pushing volumes of air, does not equate to the "sounds" certain sub woofers can reproduce, while pushing air..... I think I need a little more product testing and tuning of my system, and I do like the resilient subs, I also purchased off their site, compared many specs of subs, u.s.a./ made in china, and the gold 15s seemed comparable to many higher priced subs, from different companies, I also picked up 2 for a Sale price. They sound a lot better than the Memphis "component" 15" subs with the switchable ohms , I changed them for!
