Yes it do

As much as we enjoy the music demo, it doesn't replace being there. If you had the chance for another enclosure, it would be great to have them each tone swept and metered. It's the subtle differences musically, that can sway to one or the other. For a made-up example, the Skar could have higher overall output across the board, but then the Sundown could have a lower freq roll off. Some want high output, some will take slightly lower output for a wider freq range and accuracy. These days with the technology being way beyond 1990s tech, you CAN have SQ with a great spl output. Keep up the great work, would love to see more

Take the time to design the enclosures to the actual specs of the woofers and not the generic ones manufacturers post for those who don't know how to figure out box volumes and tunings that actually match the drivers.

has skar fixed the cone problems yet ? after awhile the cones get holes in them from slapping the terminal/leads on 10 and 12'' . many have had this issue .

Parker here's some Info on the skar ddx sub the guy I forgot his name that left sundown and works for skar created the skar ddx sub thats why this skar sub looks so different from any other skar sub and looks like a sundown sub.

I like the ddx series. They play a really deep note in my civic. Running 2 12s on a taramp 3k hd. Plus soundstream epicenter and pioneer deh4220bt radio and they dig deep. My voltage only drops from 14.3-13.8 after each bass note and I hit a clean 144 db with those subs

I think skar is much better only because of its cost. You can get a 10” skar sub for under $100 when sundown is selling them for almost $200. Even if the sundown was a hair better I would still do the skar just because they’re half the price. Common sense to me.

Like your videos bro BUT you really can’t compare two different speakers in the same enclosure and get a real feel for the products because one will always out perform the other because of the Ts parameters of the driver . It’s nice you do these for the new guys and I’m sure it does help a lot but when you get down to the science of things it really starts to make sense why one “plays lower and one sounds louder” and that’s due to many variables.. power ,tuning ,airspace, cabin, frequency ect... also when companies list specs such as “xmax “ the Bl curve is not always tested the same as other companies do so numbers are almost incomparable to each other in that sense .. just giving you some insight and understanding from a guy who knows a thing or two cuz I’ve seen a thing or two 😁

Great job 👍. I just found your channel and have been binge watching. I'm a sub now💯 my brother has two of Skars 8's in his truck underneath the rear seat. If you didn't know that they were 8's and then found out that they were after hearing them. You'd be impressed. I have a 2015 beetle that I'm fixing to do. All the speakers are Skar. I don't remember the type. But there not Skars basic speakers. The 4 6.5's will be ran on a Kenwood 4ch amp and the 10" Skar sub in there box will be on a Rockford 1ch mono amp. With a Kenwood head unit. I went with Skar speakers and sub from hearing his. I can't wait to get it in. Beetles have great shape for good acoustics on the inside.

I like the way skar subs looks. More aggressive imo. I just replaced my alpine type r 12 . Skar hits harder then the alpine.

What's you guys thoughts on the massive audio gtx? They do about 700 rms, I'm stuck between these and 1 sundown sa 15 which eventually I will get another one in the coming months but I can get the gtxs for $79 a piece and they seem to have OK views.

The Skar is a better overall speaker considering money and all

I lost my dust cap and I was wondering does that matter? It also doesnt seem to flex as much as yours and I run the 15

But in this instance doesnt it prove that Skar are infact better in regards to these particular subs. Seeing how he states that the Skar has a 1k watt rating and although looking similar by eye the Skar does have a much larger motor, almost 5lbs. He also states he thinks the Skar hit lows better even though the Sundown has a deeper surround. And then on top of that they are on the same amp but the Skar version is a D4 vc @2ohm but the Sundown is pulling more power due it being the D2 @1ohm which is why he said the SA is louder. If the Skar was a D2 it could well be lower and louder than the SA but for a cheaper price.

Like Parker said, if you can afford Sundown, rock em'! But if you just want a good daily flex at a budget level, Skar has proven themselves to a large crowd. That's why I am on the fence. Both have distinctive qualities. (BTW, Sundown underrates their products. That sub will take 1000 watts too. 😉👍

@@MadDragon75 right right. Cheers for the info. I have heard that Sundown are underrated on a great deal of their products. Also that the only reason Skar is cheaper is due to the fact they cut out the dealers and sell direct which has caused some mixed opinions. I have just got my first single Skar 12 EVL and looking forward to using it. I had an old Audiobahn alum 12 1k running at 3 ohm 5-600w and it was almost enough for me, so the EVL running at 1 ohm should be a nice upgrade running at around 1,100w. I woulda loved to get the new SA v2 but it was just out of reach at the new price point. But I know Sundown come very highly recommended. 👌🏽

Which scar do you like better this or the svr or the evl? I'm trying to decide which 2 to run

Looking foward to the xr review. Good vid.

I know the pole piece is different towards the dustcap. dished (skar) vs (sa) extended to a point. Also the different surround styles may make a slight difference. maybe one is more musical vs one is more spl (peaky.) Not 100% sure though

Ofc, 2 runs of 4 ga. 1 ofc 1 cca, 1 run of 2/0 ofc, a ton of 200 amp and 150 amp fuse block and 4 100 amp glass fuses. I've cracked my windshield 2 time and blown out the rear window seal 1 time!

I think the long term comparison would be which sub will last longer / blow first. If Sundown last longer then spending the extra money would be worth it.

He already blew the sundown sa he reconed it that was a reconed sundown sub.

Parker where can I get an inexpensive spl meter to find out what dB my system is hitting

I know I’m late but which skar sub is better the ddx or the evl???

I like RE AUDIO as well. Although i have skar in my truck now.

I’m just wanting bass which one is best for me what’s the name of the songs at the end

Whats the best ported box specs for two sa12 sundowns?

Definitely a sundown guy il pic them for sure!

I use skar amps and subs and for the price and quality and sound it’s skar all the way

What is the longevity of sundown over skar?

What amp is that you are using and did you upgrade your electrical at all?

@@ParkerTheBasshead and I see you have lol. I think you should go for a big build. At least 4 12s or something. You're totally capable of it. And you already got the power for it. Make it happen, make your channel blow tf up. Get some big sponsorships. I know I'd watch it.

Good video 2 12s of audiopipes are good like u say Rockville has a new 12 inch super that looks like it'd be great and they don't cost too much w12k9d2 Rockville 3 inch vc and 1000 cea rated watts around 114 dollars

Based on your videos between the ddx and skar evl if money isn’t an issue what difference do they really have I’ve noticed ddx has 202 oz magnet vs evl 166 is ddx more for loud bass while evl for lows

The EVL sub is horrible, all the way around. Lower BL, smaller motor and bad tsp's. The ddx is a way better, and way more efficient driver.

Sundowns are def jumping more. Could be because the box is too big for the sundown or those subs are wired down lower and thusly getting way more power than the SKAR's. Would have liked to see how much power the subs were getting while playing those songs.

The Skar was @2 ohms and the sundown was @1 ohm, so the sundown definitely had an advantage as far as available power.

​@@catch22frubert thats not even a comparison I own 2 sa SA 15s and I'm thinking about switching to the ddx because they are louder @1ohm

Hey Parker! love your videos buddy. I'm a basshead from OR, Its always awesome to see someone reviewing affordable gear. Would love to see some not so main stream brands in the mix. Audio Legion S2512, OG Audio Z12. And a few others. So many new competitors in the game these days its always cool to see what's out there, best bang for your buck like always! Keep up the good work bro!!! #BASSON

Needed to spl test both and see how they match up

The skar 12 ddx 2ohm I bought only has single medium sized rounded. Why is that? Tinsel leads ?

I got 2 DDX 15"s on a rp.1500 till I can get a 3000 watt rms amp. i a large slot port encloser tuned at 36-40 hertz 7.5 cubic foot minus sub size and interior bracing and they are clean clear and loudddd

Have one ddx 15 and will run a few 12s next .. they sound good musical

Ive never had skar audio gear but my only experience with sundown subs was great. i had 2 sundown 12's 500 or 750 rms a piece, cant remember, in a ported box on a crossfire 2k amp and hit a 145.0 DB in a chrysler sebring. They just took the power and kept goin

I just got to 15 skar in my crown vic and I didn't know nothing about the speakers because I all brought kickers. Now I like skar just a Lil better because of the price and they still hit harder then a kicker too me and that's just my opinion

What you think about kicker comp r series?

I had both last year....your box not right for that ddx...they get loud in the upper 30s...38hz

Would the sundown sa recone kit work in the ddx?

From what I heard and read about skar company not making good on their products when it breaks, I'll go with Sundown. Customer service and standing by your product means the world to me

Never had an issue with the customer service alway get a response with in 25 hours. I had to make 1 claim in 3yrs. I had 2 sets of their spx65c (4 spx65 , 4 spx_t, and 4 passive crossover on a SK125.4 wired down to 2ohm which is right at 200 wats per channel.. after beating on them for over a year 1 6.5 had a vc seperate. Contacted them because they have a 2yr warranty. Got a rma # with in 2 hrs to ship it back. Once they received it they inspected it and contacted me with in 24hr of getting delivered let me know the result and sent me a replacement. And to add a Lil more to this. If the do determine the damage is from abuse they will still offer you the ability to buy a replacement at a discounted price.

Would the sundown recone kit work in the skar?

Idk if ppl are still using RE subs but idk loving to know how the RE SXX compares to these two. Also I know it's not in the same price range but I wanna know how the new Adire Brahma MK2 sounds. I remember 9-10yrs ago ppl in forums were saying the original Brahma MK kills the JL W7 sql wise.

What kind of song did you use for the skar sub

Ive had the SA. Get the American Bass XFL, no question about it as that was my next sub and it was so much better imo.

Great video like always bro

Does the box make a difference?

I have 2 zvx 8 & i have never seen a sub that took the break-in time that these do???

Running in a box that their specs like or just a box built that holds an 8? If the enclosure doesn't compliment the drivers bandwidth, you'll never get its optimum range.

I have 6 ddx 10s in my Tahoe on 2 skar skv 3500.1 an my truck is a beast it's an all skar system been running it for about a year with no problems with skar you really do get the best bang for your buck I love the ddx series sounds great and hits hard as @#$%

Yea I think the wholesale Chinese subs like skar and American bass are actually made pretty dang good and definitely best bang for your buck. It's funny because some people are useing the same exact gear just with a different name slapped on it but payed 5 × the price. Lol! I would definitely go with skar because of price for performance

The thing with China is every thing comes from there there is high quality and junk skar is high quality the difference is sundown is assembled in America and skar is china all the way that's why they are cheaper they didn't pay for american assembly
