I just got my first one in the mail the other day I have a 2020 Nissan Sentra Im going to do a custom build I want 4 of these in my build jl audio is a great brand but unfortunately it’s over rated and over priced rite now I have two 10 inch Memphis M7’s that are not putting out full rms @ 750 per Speaker and it fucking pounds I cant imagine 4 of these VIV 14 in my ride i’m gonna give respect when it’s due and Memphis right now definitely earns respect I completely agree with what you said and I watch the same video and I thought the judgment was already in favor of JL before it even started plz post some more content as I will as well if your interested in my build 💯

[@aarongiles7275]

Definitely a nice change compared to all the cookie cutter subs out today and yes would love to see the gems laying around 🙂

[@mattm2684]

I just found one for sale in my area for $400 in the factory ported box. After watching your video I'll have to go check it out

[@trentmason87]

They retal for 1200 . Better jump on that

[@robertsaucier183]

I completely agree with everything you say I watch the same video you were talking about you definitely know what you're doing

[@workingclassperson2124]

Ya but to recone it if it does blow is what I’d be worried bout. Being a 4inch coil fan I think that subs is super cool 😎

[@stormyyoung6344]

Need a video of it moving put some watts to it

[@mazda2284]

link to my first test video in description , ill get more vids for sure .

[@stormyyoung6344]

@@mazda2284 thanks for letting me know. could you show some more of your house speaker collection they look cool you always have some of the sweetest gear. Thanks for making videos for everyone to see.

[@mazda2284]

@@stormyyoung6344 yea i can work on that , i have a ton of home speakers packed away i havent done videos of . hard to use em all and they take up alot of space , i dont like dealiing with selling stuff so they get packed away in storage if i dont keep em out , i keep some of my favorites around to hook up or stuff ive recently got and spending time using before i decide what to do with em lol .

[@theegreatest9322]

How would these sound in a sealed box ?

[@matthewguynn3652]

Finally someone admitting the Boston 555 sounds good.. I have louder subs.. I have bigger subs. But that 555 on my Rockford amp is crazy clean bass..

[@mazda2284]

There are lots of excellent sounding subwoofers but the Boston acoustics spg555 is on my list and always have one or 2 for my test bench as reference. I also have the g5 , g3 , and g2 subwoofers for reference when testing

[@kevinAuman1]

Yeah I saw these a while ago and thought they'd be cool to check out and play around with

[@mazda2284]

I like it , its a cool unique subwoofer

[@trentmason87]

I agree 100% . Mine is way louder than a w7

[@ThePurePlayaz]

WTF!! Memphis made one of the most american things for a subwoofer. 7" coil !! How come no one makes anything this cool anymore? 20 something fs you said. Damn! Keep sharing tha rare stuff you got.

[@mrvolucris1863]

the 15" Peerless one is pretty similar?

[@mazda2284]

@@mrvolucris1863 kinda but the p350 is designed for home use where you have ability to cover the upper bass frequency with other speakers , so is the SVS pb16 but its 16" with a 8" coil . The Memphis VIV is better suited for car audio purposes .

[@666nacirema666]

@@mrvolucris1863 thilo from tc sounds designed that afaik, he also used to supply motors and shit to memphis i think. i know i have tc9 based memphis subs from way back anyways. i wouldnt be suprised if these subs are quite related

[@trustmebro111]

They make 7.5" coils overseas. Very common in pro audio woofers there. Big drivers bc fuck sound ordinance laws. They also have huge transformer amplifiers. 10kw fan cooled amps. Those transformers are the size of your hands.

[@omarsanchez8875]

I got the pair even both amps goes with it. I can't wait the installation.

[@theegreatest9322]

How they sound ? I’m thinking of getting 2 myself . Possibly sealed box tho .

[@philchristmas4071]

I use pretty much all JL but I've been looking at this sub because I've always liked the memphis brand and this sub is a beast. As far as that video I seen it too and this sub should easily out perform the 13w7 as far as SPL. I would put this sub on a quality amp though. As a side note, it's almost impossible to beat the sound quality of the W7.

[@mazda2284]

This Memphis VIV sounds great also , it has a unique sound , as does the JLaudio w7 , the w7 has been around for 20 years unchanged mostly and has been a benchmark in sq since it came out . I have a bunch of different subs that have different unique qualities in sq . These both would be in that list

[@matthewguynn5745]

I ran my T2 free air on my Orion 2500dz with good electric.. couldn't believe how it took it without a box it sounded like I had a 10 in my truck w box lol

[@jdods8398]

I finally retired my 08 mojo 15 with the same rms ratings as this speaker. Memphis doesn't get the credit it deserves.

[@jaysosa262]

Appreciate the video!! I just bought this 🎉🎉

[@ColeC700]

Reminds me of the DDZ vs team sundown video barevids did ages ago lol he’s since removed the videos sadly, idk why people do BS comparison videos. Some people are funny, that Memphis sub looks like a beast!

[@kevinAuman1]

Fucking weird to see that gigantic of a coil thru the vents lol

[@mr.18s73]

Nice , hotta get one 1 day lol Memphis sub

[@tommygreist9560]

Is that a a piece of agatized coral under your sub? I love this unique sub.....I want 4 of them.

[@mazda2284]

flow copper

[@kenduran3386]

So the viv 2200 is not enough for the sub?

[@montyallen8265]

Aside from Venting there is no difference with the SVS ultra 16. I had a Ultra 16 driver and put it in a sealed box to cut the port noise and it was just fine in my car BTW.

[@mazda2284]

Actually they are very very different. I've used both of em . The motors are very different as well as the voice coil .

[@TheAceTroubleshooter]

Wonder how this holds up head to head with the Peerless STW350??

[@mazda2284]

This is intended for car use and the peerless is built for home audio , they each have different qualities and could be use in car or home applications. The Memphis does great in the shop

[@dead6last]

thats different,, cool sub ..

[@K-Effect]

It reminds me a lot of my Peerless STW - 350F 15"

[@mazda2284]

kinda in that they both have a large coil and similar shape , they are totally different tho , the Memphis has more effective cone area , less MMS due to a d2 ohm aluminum wire coil where the STW has d8 ohm copper wire coil , the motors are very very different inside , the STW would do amazing in the house for brutal lows where you have something to fill off the higher end bass , the memphis is better suited for the car and being able to cover the upper range bass notes where most cars end up lacking . both are bad ass subs

[@mazda2284]

on a side note the SVS PB16 16" shares a similar style with a 8" coil and is another insane monster .

[@mrwigglezdj]

Uses a 7 9/16 od coil dual 8ohm . On the svs pb 16

[@joshholden8561]

Anyone that dogs taramps is obviously a noob on car audio in any aspects.

[@mazda2284]

Surprisingly many people don't understand how they work or how to use them and may have a bad experience because of it . Filtering before the amplifier is something that should be done with any amps imo , also some people are not used to using a dsp , dd and taramps both make one that can adjust phase for multiple amplifier installs , the smart amps prefer 2-2.5v rca input and will sound much better than at 3-4v , and you gotta have power to back them up , not because they are inefficient but because they actually make power , they are actually one of the most efficient amps on the market , I wasn't a taramps fan until the smarts , I love the smart amps amzn.to/3UoD5i7

[@joshholden8561]

@@mazda2284 I have 5 taramps smart 3 ks and ur absolutely right they really like around 2- 2.5 volts that's the sweet spot for sure . I've had nothing but good success from taramps their crossover setting are bad but a good audio control cleaned that right up for me I do 150 db on 1 smart 3k and 2 12s with all the beefy electrical to run a 10 k amp.

[@JAM-ur8tj]

Definitely a unique looking subwoofer! 7.5 inch voice coil, I wonder what the benefit is to a voice coil that large.

[@mazda2284]

have a large 7.5" coil you have a larger surface area for cooling , being 2 layer is what makes it extra interesting to me , it helps with high frequency roll off and can cool more quickly which results in more steady BL , 2 layer is lighter reducing mms and making it more sensitive , which helps with a trade off's of using large gauge aluminum flat wire , where round copper wire would have higher BL and sensitivity in the same given gap " negated by higher mms" . i could get deeper into this but it would be a long winded rant and like anything in audio there are exceptions to certain things in certain cases . lol
