Here is my unbiased review of the BassBoss VS21. Let me know if you have any thoughts or questions :)
Sub Killers Playlist (Mentioned In Video): open.spotify.com/playlist/7zs...
For instance, PTPOM hits a low A0 at 27.5Hz
Bottoms Up has a bouncy 808 that gets down to C#1 at 34.65Hz at one point.

    Thanks for the detailed review. Great job!!! I own 3 VS21s (saving up for the 4th) and absolutely love them. One of the best subs on the market...the ability to produce both deep and punchy bass puts it on top for me. I also love the design....they call it a hybrid horn but i guess technically it's a 6th order bandpass sub.

    I think you’re right about it being a bandpass design. It has the ports and is semi-folded so it kind of takes elements of each. They’re incredible. I’m hoping to get two more, but I got a ZV28s first.

    I think a pair of the VS21s would walk all over the QSC18s. The QSCs (especially the newer KS118s) would have an advantage from 70Hz-100Hz. They are great subs, and get loud and punchy. But the VS21s are punchy and get so much deeper. Anything below 50Hz I’m guessing the pair of VS21s would win. There are notes in songs I have never heard before with these subs.

    Hmmm any questions? Maybe I’ll make a follow up. The VRX932LAPs on top of these is an insane combo. I think it’s hard to say what the limiting factor is; it may be the subs but I’ve seen the tops limit while the subs keep on going so it’s hard to tell (the DJ using the system was running it really hot). My dream setup would be a set of tops like the AT212s or AT312 but with a wide dispersion pattern like the DV12. I’m even more impressed the more I keep using them. In fact the other week I used them and shattered two lights on the ceiling, one on a completely different floor. The thing I’ve learned about these subs is they do eventually stop getting louder, but it doesn’t distort or limit. It just gets to a point where you keep turning it up and the box adjusts the volume transparently to keep it from causing overexcurision. It just stays at the same volume as you keep turning it up. They’ve never failed or thermaled out on me. At those points it’s usually already so loud where I am that I’m wearing hearing protection anyways. These subs have been huge money makers for me and I don’t regret anything about purchasing them. I just wish I got them years ago. They’re easy to move around too.

  • @hamster1717

    Жыл бұрын

    Depending on the size of your crowd, one of these should be plenty for most dancefloors under 250-300 people (assuming they’re all on the same dancefloor in the same place generally). One of these is basically equivalent to more than most double-18” subwoofers so you can imagine this being louder than two single 18s for the most part except for really high end single 18” drivers like the SSP-118, in which case it is still competitive but a dual 18” driver paired together may have a slight edge in volume (though LF extension is a different story and the only dual 18” subwoofer that I know of that can go deeper and louder is the ZV28, which is a larger box and tuned to a lower fequency). Part of this is because the VS21 has a 21” cone with a 4.5” voice coil and 58mm of xmax, so you’re getting a lot of displacement. Since these are short-horn loaded, the “throw” of the punch tends to be right in front and slightly directional, but maybe not the same way as a folded or horn loaded cabinet. To be honest, I haven’t tested the throw of these compared to any other subs (most tend to be omnidirectional anyways), but I find putting these right in front of the dancefloor does a good job covering it. In places where I needed more coverage I’d put an additional VS21 closer to where I want the sound.

    I think taking them off the casters would slightly improve sound (maybe barely audible if at all), but I don’t think it’s worth the work taking them off. When I’ve used them without the Dollie’s I couldn’t tell any difference in the sound. What would probably be better is if I used a ratchet strap to “couple” them physically - I’ve heard some people do this to couple the surface area of the boxes to get better results.

    Hey Paul, thank you for the excellent review. There is nothing on youtube like this. I am going to pull the trigger on a system from bassboss but I am in two minds. Do I get the SV9's and 1 x SSP118 or do I get the DV12's and 1 x VS21? I want something I can play at half volume and get great sound and also really push it for larger gatherings. I don't want to battle moving things around too much but I want a true sleeper. Some of the reviews from people on youtube say that they prefer the SV9's over the DV12's. Did you get a chance to compare them at your demo in LA?

    Hey, thanks for your comment! I was able to compare the SV9s and the DV12 and they both sounded very good. I think I preferred the sound of the DV12, but it’s a 63lb box vs the SV9 which is under 30lbs and very small. If the SV9 gets loud enough for what you need then I’d say go that route. Another good option is the DiaMon 112, it’s a 30lb box that uses a coaxial design and gets very loud; if you’re always using subs I think it’s a good way to go. The DV12’s strength is being a good all purpose box-it sounds good even without a subwoofer so if you don’t always bring subs it works. But I always bring subs (if I’m doing really small events, I have a pair of Evolve 50s I can bring), so if you’re like me, it may be worth considering the DiaMon or SV9. For the subs, I’d really be inclined to go for the VS21 because it gets deeper (yet is still easy to move with the castor board). A system of 2x Diamond over 2x VS21s would be very capable. It’s not that much heavier than the SSP, but they are larger, so make sure you have a way to move them.

    My recommendation is to get the larger system first and if you then want to get a smaller one down the road for smaller events, go for that. Otherwise if you start with a smaller system, you can’t do larger events until you scale up.

Basically I have krk monitors with a sub I use to DJ at parties with about 50 - 100 people but I am going to damage them one day. Basically I am having a midlife crisis lol and want to spoil myself a little as I am not into sports cars or watches. I wanted a system I could make some money as a side hustle but also enjoy at home. The VS21 might be too brutal to use at home softly but I know I would miss it if I threw a party. I wanted to sell my KRK monitors and use just one system for messing around at home and at parties. The Diamon 112's is a great option but I think the SV9 & DV12 are more versatile on their own as studio monitors. I have been looking around for some bassboss items secondhand to save some money. Do you think one VS21 and 2 Dimons are enough for 500 people ? and would it be overkill for 100 people? I play mostly EDM. Like you said start big and then scale down. but how big?

In my apartment, I've used the VS21s and Fulcrum FA22ac's (which are basically large monitors haha) for movies and playstation and its insane lol. If you bought the DiaMon's instead of the DV12s, you'd have an extra $1000 to spend on a pair of small studio monitors if you wanted to.

    I would say absolutely yes. One of the reasons people recommend 18” or sometimes even 15” subs for live bands is that with ported, bass reflex subs, those tend to be more efficient around the frequency range of a bass guitar and acoustic kick. Depending on the size of your driver and how the box is tuned, it will generally excel at a certain part of the frequency response and not be as efficient at others (think of a range of the spectrum that is related to the tuned frequency and becomes less and less good as you move away from this range). Horned loaded boxes can also have this problem to a different extent. The thing that’s unique about the VS21s-they are tuned to a low frequency but because of the short horn has efficiency in the upper end of the bass range as well

    IIRC, the Bassboss tops (AT312) use very similar (if not identical) drivers as the FA22s and would give very similar output. Raising the FA22s on to poles and therefore way above head height and hi-passing them should give the results you require using 1xVS21 per side but if you want stupid amounts of bass (+10dB hot), 2xVS21 per side should give all the bass you'll ever require. For live music, personally I don't like that much bass but always bear in mind that there is a lot of bass absorption from the audience.

    I actually tend to prefer a more balanced sound. I find that even between songs some are mixed with way more bass than others, which when put through a mastering chain or limiter. For some events I may run the subs slightly hotter (such as when I run a JBL SRX system, I run the subs at around 2-3dB more than the tops).

    VS21 for sure. Deeper by quite a bit and louder. The SRX828SP rolls off around 35Hz while the VS21 rolls off around 25Hz and is flat basically down to 27. There is one small part in the frequency range (maybe around 65Hz) where the SRX828SP is louder, but other than that the VS21 is louder and deeper, and as a result sounds more “full.” The VS21 also has more punch, and is more articulate. To me it was clearly better sounding in every way. I really loved the SRX828SPs I had but I sold them all to get more VS21s and ZV28s.

    Hello Paul, love the video review. I am on the fence between the VS21 and the ZV28. I understand that the ZV28 goes slightly lower than the VS21 but slightly different frequency response, I wish the frequency response graph was up for it as well, the SSP218 has it but the Zv28 does not. Did you have a chance to hear the ZV28 with your tracks? I remember you mentioned that you could not fit the ZV28 into your truck/van. If transportation were no issue, would you have gone with the ZV28 instead? TIA.

    That's a really good question, and I think I'm going to be buying a ZV28 to pair with my VS21s. The reason I love the VS21s is that they are excellent all-rounders. They don't get as deep or loud as the ZV28, but they are a bit tighter and punchier so they are more versatile. My plan is to always bring my VS21s and then bring a ZV28 (or two) for shows where I really need more low end, like Hip Hop and some forms of EDM. The VS21 still gets far deeper than pretty much any other sub out there. If I was doing it all over again, I'd still buy the VS21s. The hard thing is knowing whether to buy 4x VS21s or 2x VS21s and 1-2 ZV28s, but I think the latter option is what people are the happiest with. I did not get to hear the ZV28's directly but I will get a chance to demo them soon

I do a lot of open format stuff so for me the SSP and VS21 is a better fit for most of the stuff I play. There is one out of maybe every 50-100 songs I play where the ZV28 really makes a difference. Still I’m glad I got it and I got it for an incredible deal.

The Horizon 118 is more comparable to the BassBoss SSP118; both use 18” B&C drivers with 4” voice coils paired with a 2500W RMS amplifier. I have a pair of the SSP118s and they are excellent, I would expect similar performance out of the Horizon 118, which looks to also use top-shelf components.

    I have a pair of BassBoss SSP118s, which in my opinion are much better/louder than the VRX918SP. However the VRX918SPs are excellent too, and I still have a fleet of them because they rent well and sound good. The SSPs get noticeably deeper and louder, so in my opinion they are superior. It would take about 1.5-2 VRX918SP to keep up with a single SSP118. However since the VS21s is deeper and louder than the SSP118, my guess is it would take at least 2-3 VRX918SPs to keep up with a single VS21, and for the 25-40Hz range the VS21 is even better because it gets deeper.

    If I was only playing live music, I wouldn’t need the extra depth of the BassBoss so maybe I’d use the VRXs. The VRXs are already some of my favorite 18” cabinets but the SSPs are the clear winner in my opinion. The other thing I like about the BassBoss cabinets is they have all this protection so you don’t have to worry about blowing them or limiting. The VRX has the limit light in the back that I try to check to make sure isn’t turning on. I have replaced a few VRX drivers (in the tops, not the subs). With that being said, the SSP is larger and heavier than the VRX918SP. In fact the VRX is one of the smallest and lightest single 18” cabinets, which is extra impressive because it has the flyware too.

    I would expect the 9007 to get louder in its operating range than the VS21, because its a double-21 (better to compare the 9007 to the Makara). With that being said, the 9007 starts rolling off quite early compared to this, to the point that it is basically -10dB at 25Hz unlike the VS21 which is only -3 at 25Hz. RCF made an odd choice with their 9000 series subs (I have not used the 9007 but I've used most of the other 9000 stuff), which is that you can only get the 20Hz highpass filter when it is in "infra" mode (meaning a 50Hz or 60Hz lowpass filter) - not sure why they made this call (though you can exclude the lowpass entirely, but you can't choose something like 100Hz). I bought these speakers because I enjoyed the sound of bandpass speakers more than ported subs. The 9007 is a ported box tuned to a relatively higher frequency (for a 21). I'm sure it performs well, especially for the price.

For the price I’m not the biggest Meyer fan, but they are rider friendly and get the job done well (this has just been my experience, I realize many others love Meyer). The thing I like so much about the VS21 (and why I bought them over reflex subs), which is also true about the Makara and the Kraken, is the transient response combined with the deep extension. It gets very deep but doesn’t sacrifice the tightness when it comes to hits like acoustic kick drums. I got so tired of having to “choose” between sacrificing depth and sacrificing “punch” or articulation. The Bandpass/hybrid design does a good job of delivering both. I got a lot of compliments from a buddy of mine who does tours when he heard my VS21s, his favorite sub to use was the LFC900. If I was spec-cing out a larger install perhaps there is a way to get better punch and depth from two separate boxes properly deployed and phase aligned. For my mobile DJ gigs I don’t have time and energy to do this. For comparison, even BASSBOSS’s own ZV28 gets deeper than the VS21, but only slightly so (it gets a bit louder too). But it’s heavier, bigger, less punchy, and draws basically twice the power. For many events I do it is a marginal improvement. I’d rather bring another VS21 (or two), even though I sometimes use VS21s and ZV28s together when I’m doing crazy Hip Hop or EDM shows. The ZV28 is still a beast though. What I mean to say is the VS21 is the right balance for me and has been one of the best investments I’ve made for my business.

    @@jack3400 for around $10000 you should be able to get 2x VS21 or 1x Makara. The Makara has some newer tech so it may be the best, however consider the flexibility (if you are doing mobile events) of having two VS21s which are easier to move and can serve as a base for top speakers if needed. I enjoy this flexibility but if I was doing an install/was flying my tops most of the time instead the Makara may be a better (and more economical) choice

    I wish BB would be available in EU. Anyway I will try my best to hear them one day. Just an advise. Place your subs in the middle and get a pair of HQ stands for your tops. Bass gets f@*$ing crazy if you pull them apart. Not side by side but just play with them from S/S to 20 inches max and you will be suprised the difference it can get compared to the L/R placements. Little knowledge base here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dKWmk8WOp9K6eMo.html I use Martin Audio since its one of the best local co. But I love Detroit electro with those 808 thumps, so I would like to own a bunch of the ZV28mk2's preferably with D&B audiotechnik tops (cca140dB max outputs) but its way more expensive than my kidney and a lung) I have a pair of Martin Audio XE300 speaker and og Xo for sale, if someone wants to build a 12 inch coax cab with 140dB... just hit me up.

    Funny that they call the top chamber a "horn" Its just a normal pressure chamber and has nothing to do with a horn This sub ist just a simple 6th order bandpass

    There several different designs that would be considered a 6th order bandpass, the closest one to this would probably be a a dual reflex enclosure. My guess is they call the upper chamber a horn because a front loaded horn and a single reflex bandpass are basically the same thing - what differs is the quarter wave resonance frequency and the fact that a horn flair allows for efficiency at a certain bandwidth of frequencies.

    I was able to visit their location in LA for a sound test. I have to be honest, I was not impress. I did not get that strong bass nor feel it. I have the yorkville ES21P and they sounded louder. There were 4 of us who wanted to hear it that day, we were all just waiting for that deep frequency to kick in, it just didn't. We played a few hiphop genre, it didn't sound musical to my ears.Thanks for the review tho

    Interesting, I’m surprised. This sub supposedly deeper than the ES21P on paper. For SPL the Yorkville subs are no joke, but they don’t usually get as deep (in my experience). I’ve used the legendary LS801p as well as some of the elite stuff and had very good impressions. I thought the SRX828SP got deeper than the ES18, but I wasn’t able to directly compare it to the ES21. The VS21 is far deeper and more musical than the SRX828SP, which I have used for years.

They had only one VS21 on and I didn't feel the bass. It was punchy tho. I'm sorry. Yes, es21 only goes down to 33hz . But I could feel the bass. SRX is a dual 18, cannot be compared to a single sub

    @@rocksolidentertainment6060 idk never been to a demo but I have a lot of experience using the subs. Even at 40hz the yorkys may not even hold up to a vs21, it's close, but they're definitely not even close to as low. You mean JBL srx? Honestly those are not much competition to the vs21. I'm sure plenty of bassboss owners also have srx boxes as well and can give you a direct comparison. Most people start out with jbl of course. If a pair of vs21s isn't starting to take your breath in front of them on lows then they weren't being pushed. I have noticed a lot of people seem afraid to give them full gain. I'd like to use this moment to encourage bassboss owners to turn your subs up and push them hard, they will be fine and if not you'll get help from bassboss.

    Ok I grade them according to their counterparts from other brands. Like I won’t compare single cabinets to dual cabinets and also I don’t do mismatching like and 18 vs a 21 which I notice many bassboss fans tend to do. That being said I’d say RCF, FBT , TurboSound even the Synergy series from Yorkville. And that’s not mentioning the obvious ones like Meyer Sound and L’ Acoustics. I’ve even heard BassBoss fans claim that they know people who changed from Meyer to BassBoss, that’s heard to believe.. but as far as price and weight those I’d say@@hamster1717
