I just blew a 6.5" K9 on the 1st day! But it wasn't actually blown, the Surrounds on half of the subwoofer came undone. I glued them with some E6000 and it's playing just fine now. Only thing is when I play hard core Low HZ for a song or two the whole car starts to smell like glue. Other than that it pounds.

Love how you propper test subs and explain about your findings love the video it a good 12" sub to take that power💪

I Truly Love Watching Your Videos‼️

Hey Parker I bought one of those subs a few months ago and it was wired to a power acoustik va1 8000D amp at 1ohm and I liked it so much I bought another one for my hyundal tiburon and I was not disappointed! It slaps hard with 2 subs wired to 2ohms! The gain is only at about 30% and my rearview mirror moves when the bass hits!

Good job Parker keep up the good work bro. We need people like you to do unbiased demos on subs not like some of the other people out there.

You should consider building and buying more boxes and show everyone the difference between sealed, ported and bandpass... like when you review a sub you could play it in different boxes and see the difference.

Skar actually makes some really decent prefab boxes. Good quality for reasonable price. With the price of wood these days it would likely cost just as much or more to build one. Of course if you need a certain volume, you may not fine one prefab and have no choice but to make your own. For most people putting one or two subs in their daily driver, it shouldn't be too hard to find a prefab box that is very close in spec to what the manufacturer of your sub recommends

If your looking for something that does that look at sundown, Fosgate, Kicker, etc. Parker love the videos.

Great video, for 1400 rms and the price point seems to be good, you make awesome vids bro

Great vid. Buddy I’m ready for the video on installing the wood stove or electric ceiling heater. 😬

Broke mine and on about 1600 watt RMS slowly over two-month period of time then switch to 3123rms clamped to try to kill it.almost 2yrs later still going strong.that 7k burst was cool.not bad for a cheap sub

I might be a car audio snob, but after spending 10 years of so after high school working as a car stereo shop manager and installer starting in the mid 90’s, I had my hands on stuff from just about every amp and sub brand that was around after the 80’s, and it was usually super easy to tell which products or entire brands to completely avoid no matter how cheap. I’ve always maintained the rule that with car audio gear you get what you pay for. 5000 watt amps for 150.00 are crap if they even get close.

Same in the 80’s and 90’s if we needed 5k watt amp “good clean power” we was paying $1 a watt. I had 2 DD 18’s 9900 series, old school ones with 4 Memphis Mojos. I probably had $15k and that was on the cheap side being I worked at a shop/DD DEALER.

Great video. After that torture test, I’d say “yes” to owning that sub. Could you please consider testing the NVX 2K watt 1 ohm stable amp the NDA105? I love this amp. Sonic Electronics manufactures this NVX brand.

Thanks for the test. Couple of observations: 1) The BL loss / power compression seems quite bad.... 137dB @ ~400W to 143dB @ ~6000W.... you would expect a 6dB gain at ~1600W, not 6000W. 2) As for the RMS, as the name implies you need to look at the mean value. The test tone at 1400W is exactly what you need to test this as with music you are probably averaging less than 1/3 of that.

That sub is clearly not in the ideal enclosure..but still took 7k down the throat. $150 sub..damn!!!

Good video Parker and not bad sub. You should try out those gravity subs see how good they are

Continous Program Peak are the three ratings and used by larger speaker manufactures of PA equipment(JBL,Peavey etc). Rockville started out as Audio Savings selling P/A equipment. Its not incorrect or weird. Its just a different way of doing it. These types of systems generally deal with uncompressed music so there are more peaks. Not like the pre recorded music played through most car stereo's which is generally heavy compressed in recording and mastering So with the 3 ratings, the idea is you get an amp that is the program rating, knowing that you have a little extra head room to handle short peaks without clipping to, deal with live(program material) less than ideally compressed music. But you can't pump a continuous sin wave at the program rating it will/should not last long. This also ensures you always have clean power, to extract max long term performance but if abused, enough power to damage or push things out of their happy operating ranges into that realm of failure. BTW I have never heard of anyone using the peak numbers any where but in the marketing department Edit- the reason you see car and home use rms(continuous) and peak(program) is they play mastered music. Which do not have those un mastered peaks to deal with so the over all levels can be pushed higher. So its ideal to suggest a less powerful amp, so they use a different rating system. I hope that makes sense.

Thank you for that explanation! If they are going to make subs for car audio they should get on board with how the rest for the industry rates car audio stuff so it doesn't confuse people. Unfortunately people new to the car audio world see that leak power rating and get excited not knowing the subs won't handle that continuesly. It's kinda shady and ALOT of manufacturers do it, not just rockville. Again the explanation was awesome!! You rock.

I don't see how it confuses anyone, they are very clear in their own explanation to the way they use the 3 ratings and it made perfect sense to me, i actually got exactly what this guy got out of their explanation

Yes I would definitely buy this sub... everyone does not have 1 dollar per rms wattage we are asked to pay these days your test was very pleasing . Thank you for you tests that you do.. they are very informative. Keep up the good work bro . Appreciate you

I had a pair of canine fifteens on a skar RP 2008 did very well just ordered a pair of the Punisher 15 will try them

Just ordered a punisher 12 d2 upgrading from my skar svr12 hopefully its alot louder cant wait

Nice to see Rockville stepping up their game.

If I were in the market for a 12 and was looking to spend about $150 I would at least consider this. Have you ever dealt with the Harmony Audio HA-C122? It looks interesting with decent sensitivity but I wasn't sure if it would hit the really deep stuff judging by its specs. Would love to see a review of it if you're ever looking for something different.

I'm running a Punisher 15D1 on a Skar 1500 watt RMS amp, and it's handling it like a champ. No problem! Had to replace my rear window because it shattered lmao! I feel like this sub could probably handle 2,000 watts just fine, but nothing over.

Nice I like your videos with the subs around this price range. How does this compare you the k9?

Fi Subs at some point bro! I got the HDX3 18” based off your review and love it!

Very big surprise 😜 about time a decent sub from them

Thanks, I just bought 2 of the punisher 12's d1..

I was surprised how well it did also for 150 dollars not bad man!

Really good videos my guy.. question do you sell boxes?

Always Excited well Done Rockville would like to see more at the price range do you have a video

Awesome video love the dogs too. Efficient testing in my opinion

Awesome test, this is a great sub for the money. For those that want a pounding subwoofer for only $169.00 at Amazon, this is the one.

Still love the look of that sundown x series though. My box is tuned to 32 also Always wondered how they would have worked out for me instead of my dual American Bass HD 12s which I absolutely love as well. Might have to try them out someday. #firstworldproblems lol.

I think the sub is ok for the money. Kept it at 1400 or less. Do the Harmony Audio Carbon 12 next. I have 2 in 5 cu/ft tuned at 28 hz. They're an awesome budget sub. Love the vids bro

Thinking about getting a pair of these. Still fairly new in this game, but im learning more every day. Im old school tho, (kid of the 80s-90s) so i was bliwn away when i got back in a couple years ago lol. Back then u had to know a guy, who knew someone that worked at the only stereo shop around. Got a kicker 15" cvr now but wanna get alot louder, and drive a sentra so dnt have much room

I like rockville..I got the 8" ghost spare tire sub..love it..but I don't push it to its limits either..I got it to save trunk space and to fill car factory speakers...2016 hond accord sport

Surprising!!! NICE VID BRO!!!

Any plans to test the American Bass Titan?

Would like you to review seismic audio GF line. Cheap enough and if you believe their specs, should be a budget banger

What was the name of the first song you played? Great review btw. Been looking at Rockville for a min. Nice to see a non bias review

Bro Rockville 4oow 8in powered sub was my first , the cone is all aluminum its a badass lil guy they aint bad at all

Honestly im still running 4 12 in punishers with no issue's, but they're probably getting about 700 watts each. I am going to replace just because i originally just wanted to see if they failed as bad as the K9 series. Now i think im going to run either 4 crossfire 12s or ct sounds. They both offer a 12 in similar size as the punisher, so hopefully which ever i go with fits in the box ok

Damn. rockville is stepping up their game.. finally

cool vids, been subbed. Sooo i can't help but feel like they rated it for Amp-Matching purposes for people that would buy a sub at this price. as in less electrical, maybe a 2800watt amp that does slightly less to the sub. on the other end, your amp and electrical allow you to whack it with a Full 3400 for how long, while expecting no smell. just my opinion.

You got the rockville version 2, they fix the coil glue issue

Hello! TY for ALL your videos! I saw this Budget Bass Basher on Amazonia and found your review by proxy. Thinking this would be a cheap way to show some kids around the block what an old school EarthQuake PHD5000W-grey can do when compared to a recent 5000w monoblock class D amp! The old school will definitely rule when hooked to my Phoenix Gold Alternator! Anyways, a better understanding of "Program" or "PGM" = We all have heard PGM described as follows: A speaker's "program" rating is the maximum amount of peak power it can safely handle in short bursts. It's almost always twice the "continuous" rating. For example, a speaker rated for 400 watts continuous power would be rated for 800 watts program power. Here is a better description to get better understanding: ☆The "program" rating is also known as the "music" power rating. It's a higher rating because music has many peaks and dips and is not as abusive as a continuous signal. ☆ ☆The ideal setup is where the amp's RMS rating is around the speaker's program rating. This lets the amp's peak wattage approach the peak wattage of the speaker when in the particular cabinet chosen. Program watt ratings are used heavily when setting up a P.A. rig, where musical peaks are prevalent and single test and competition tones are not used.....much. With a musical rating given Peavy suggests an amplifier that can achieve 65 to 85% of the PGM rating while keeping the amplifier channel gains at 2/3rds of the amp's maximum output giving your P.A. the cleanest sounding music reproduction but still giving your sound system the ability to peak terrific DB when needed 😉! Seems odd for a Car Audio company to include PGM ratings when looking at it from a competitive veiwpoint, but from a musically oriented standpoint PGM gives the user a better chance at reaching their audiophile-ish goals (even though I would never call a speaker with a sensitivity of 85 an audiophile quality speaker! l😂

i have a pair Rockville 10" W10K9D2 on a Boss Chaos class D 3600 watt Monoblock wired to 0.5 Ohm and basically just about everything is about maxxed and the do great for what i thought was a very reasonable $ . I give them @ thumbs up . and as far as the speaker class as i can tell the 10" is better all around than 12 or 15.

Damn, that is actually surprising it survived the higher rating which is obviously exaggerated a 🤏 bit and yes you can see that there is some type of a coating painted over the coils but it just is not as dark as say sundowns black hi-temp coating... Overall I don't think it is a terrible sub for the money but I personally would not run Rockville ever myself...
