Yo parker.. I think before you start comp the deafbounce to win .. Yo Parker you did a nice build for the show .. it reminded me of the 04 Daytona build off I won first place 6 hour build I did a wall dB platinum series subs and amps 2 12" 2 15" hit 168.36. I am doing my first build since 08 for my son graduating next year I'm doing a 07 Yukon got 16 highs and 8 mid subs , going to rebuild my 2 12" dB platinum series for bac and 2 8" pandas for the front...

Great vid as always very helpful but how about the zv6 vs the 4515 you might want to use a larger amp for that test but I bet that would be a vid to watch for everyday entertainment keepup the good work

The Sundown basket is functional. Forced cooling. Best basket in car audio bar none. I really prefer the traditional gasket ring also. I build walls and invert sometimes. Sometimes it's the small things.

What’s gonna hit the nasty lows for slowed n rebassed music? Money not really an option I’m doing 2 15s in a slot port tuned to 28 I have a design but can redesign box if subs need less/more air space. Right now my design is 6.64 on sub side so after bracing and subs should be 6.1 for two 15s.

I like both of them for different reasons. They both have great applications.

I like that Sundown. I just like to be different. Everyone around here runs Sundown. I been watching Deaf Bonce and actually was going to buy a couple of 3012's but they were out of stock at the time, same goes for B2 Audio. So I decided on two DC Elite XL 12's. Now I'm getting ready to put a decent system in my daily. One of those would work. I have about 4 mono amplifiers with a range of different wattage that are capable of running .5 ohm. Already been on your Facebook page. Congrats on that. I'd like to see you test some DC subs. If I get a suburban next year I'm going to try and do some lvl6 DC subs. Keep doing what you're doing.

I have the x15 v2 and yeah sundown kicks the rest now I liked this it was a real good comparison really let’s you know the right direction to go but I got a quick question if you have got time and can answer it Parker I know your busy man what would be two 12s In a sealed box’s could put on my synergy wfo2.10 dyno shows it made like 4500 watts but it’s 2250 watt amp I’ve looked t a few but there are so many and most are for ported I have a ported 15 and was wanting some of the old school tight hitting bass a couple 12s could give me ! Thanks if you can

PARKER.. Try the B2 Audio Rage XL 12. It’s rated @2500 rms. But it has a extra huge spider and xl dustcap to keep the sub cooler when pushing the hell out of it.. The sub basket and spider is the most beautiful sub you’re going to ever see. The price is same as sundown pretty much. You need to test it!!!!

Honestly love both subs. I'm a statistics and number kind of guy. I would go with the deaf bonce. 1db gain for 100$ more... granted you didnt have to push the sundown as hard as the DB to get the numbers. Sundown always conservatively rates their subs. DB seems to hit the nail on the head with their ratings. For the amount of power the sundown took it almost seems like you would have to give it more than what it is rated get the decibels you pulled from the spl meter. Sundown probably louder I bet the Deaf Bonce is more than likely more musical > spl with this particular sub

both are awesome but im into the down. i just bought a pair of Nvx 12 with box would like to know if i should buy a better box and which amp is a good recommend to buy

Been wanting another system ever since my quad coil 15" RE XXX and my JL 1200.1 amp got stolen about 20 years ago. But guessing I'll never have another system. Those have to be some of the best subs ever in existence. I watched some of my friends take it to competitions and passing it among each other for years then I bought it and was playing it loud daily for probably four or five years before it got stolen and was still playing like new.

Wow great video once again brother that Sundown is a Beast an the DB there wasn't much of a difference between the two the Sundown definitely had your plate moving more and then once I watched more of the video on decibel reading's I seen why I think I want to invest in a SPL meter my kids broke my old one 🙄

So i bought super tweeter and spliced it onto my door speakers but it isnt pushing that much treble as i want it to. How can i push more treble onto my tweeters? HELP ME PLEASE

From Walmart subs to these? I'm proud of what you do👍😎

Yo Parker what editing program do you use? i was thinking about making some vids.

Would you try the 40hz test on the Audiopipe BDC 4? I have had mines almost 2yrs now & would love to know how much they can take. I have 4 & two 3000 watt Taramps.

Those spots on the coil is definitely from clipping. Also xmax doesn't determine overall excursion whatsoever. Xmax is just a formula of linear excursion the coil staying within the gap and it's calculated by the winding width of the coil minus the top plate thickness divided by 2. So a 50mm tall coil windings with a 12.5 mm (1/2") top plate would be 18.75mm of xmax and same exact coil with a thicker 25mm (1") top plate Would be 12.5mm xmax. So the deaf bonce either has a shorter winding width or a thicker top plate or both, xmech is the mechanical limits of the motor basically to peak to peak, and I'd say likely the Sundown can move more peak to peak than the deaf bonce but that extra excursion may or may not noticably hurt sound quality whether that's better that comes down to the users opinion and what there looking for. There's people that say it's stupid but personally even tho sound quality is important the huge motors and insane excursion is what I look for in a sub...call me shallow lol, Bass is more than just function it's also a visual thing you want it to look badass too..., not many bassheads do not include form along with the function when choosing a sub!? They want both!!!!

@d0nk3ybrain57

Dirty commie subs

Maybe Deaf Bonce determines the Xmax differently like Sundown. It seems to be, at Sundown that 100 mm peak-to-peak Xmech excursion means the excursion limit just before damage or just before bottoming out, and they determined the Xmax just as the half of it. At deaf Bonce is pretty plausible that the Xmax is defined as a one-way excursion at 70 percent of BL, so, if it is true, then Xmech or peak-to-peak excursion is in the most case when Xmax is defined at 70 percent of BL can be counted out as (Xmax + Xmax / 2) x 2. So, for deaf Bonce: (19 + 19 / 2) x 2 = (19 + 9.5) x 2 = 28.5 x 2 = 57 mm - this is the theoretical peak-to-peak excursion limit for Deaf Bonce - still just a little bit more like the Sundown's Xmax... Sound-wise: Deaf Bonce really sounded more musical, so, if I have to define which I will use for what, then Sundown just for competitions or shows, and Deaf Bonce also for competitions or shows + as a daily sub too, so...

I love the 🐈 basshead cat 🐈 lol keep the good work Parker

What do you mean by unload ? Did the Deaf Bonce bottom out the coil or just spider over excursion noise?

I was shocked by the rockville audio 10inch under the seat sub with built in amp 800 watt max I bought like 4 months ago sounds pretty good in a nissan versa might get the 12 inch powered sub for under the other seat its 1200 watt max or just get another 10in
