I would love to see a show of all the best 6.5 subwoofers out there and see who the top three are best
Thats what everyone want to know
I had 4 B2 Audio 6.5s w/1800w on them. Sounded great and were loud but they didn’t move the air I wanted. I could hear but not feel them. Went with 2 Sound Integrity SQL 12s. Way better
I think the DS18 EXL would crush these Subs
I terryGriffey wou like to receive the measurements and the specs of abox for 2tens "ported box it will be easy to cut it out of my wood please Parker sir
Yes.. test the best 5 of 6.5inch sub..
In db… would love to see that
Parker - thank you for the review! Awesome video and boy that Meso 6.5" can handle some power!!
Man you are always soo happy i love it! I've been showing all my bass head friends your vids and telling everyone to sub to your page, keep doing what you're doing broo 👍
I really appreciate the support!
I liked your FB PAGE and of course I'm subbed to you.🙂 I've been here since almost day 1 . Your content never disappoints you give an honest unbiased opinion. You have def helped with alit of my car audio decisions. I just had my 2 Sundown SA 12v2 stolen out my trunk, people can be horrible some have no conscience! You feel violated when someone breaks into your car, I hope no one on here will have to experience it, if you haven't already .
Thanks for your top notch content Parker , you are def a much needed creator in the car audio niche. KEEP THE BANGERS COMING BROTHER !!
Thanks for the comparison video. I wasn't expecting that big of a difference between the two subs.
I have an old gmc Sonoma and I’ve been debating on what to get. This video and the dual 8” ct meso helped me decide that this is the route I want to go.
My whole truck is CT Sounds. Absolutely love it. Have 6, 6.5 meso subs, component's etc. Thinking of going to 6 8s
Jeez 42,000 sponsors Park! Man I been with you since you were under 2k! Been a beautiful thing to see you grow. You deserve it man
Multiple 6.5’s in shared airspace are just nuts. They kick so tight.
Love the way you're doing your thang with your content! Keep more coming! 💯💪🏽
Just so you know it's guys like you that make building budget systems easier and fun.
Bro anytime I’m curious about a sub size/power shoot out my guy right here is locked and loaded on the content lol keep it going bro 💪💪💪
love your show,I learn a lot thanks James
A Parker you did a good job on review. Actually the first time I’ve seen any of the 2021 stuff looks like a pretty good equipment solid information thank you Looking forward to seeing you out there at shows. Thank you Parker
You always have such a positive attitude Parker I like your videos keep up with the great work
Thanks man!!!
Honestly it seems unnatural like he's trying too hard. All the big smiles seem forced and overdone tbh.
@@derekgardin1512 weather its forced or not hes a positive dude and we need more positivity around
Awesome bud and it was great getting to meet you yesterday at rukus. The demo was very cool. And hopefully i will have my car at the next show and can return the demo buddy. So keep up the great videos and i will keep watching
Good to meet you man!!
Those subs look amazing and would fit perfectly in my mustang.
Killer video man keep it up!
TY for the video. it makes a lots of sense since there's more cone area on the 8s. but good to see actual numbers. have a good 1 🤙🏽
I recently got a dd audio 608d 8" and it really is amazing to see what they can do and how low these new subs can go
I believe the 6.5's would be great for an in-home project. Looks like they can provide some nice SQ in a small package
I'm thinking about using them for my garage setup. Want something that doesn't take up much space.
ct sounds is a new brand to me, my first time hearing about them.. very interesting so far, i respect the ones who don't write some ridiculous fake max watts number on their amps
Ya its really annoying. Just put the actual spec... RMS spec. Anyone with half a brain is gonna know you ain't getting 4000 watts out of the amp when it's got a single 25A fuse on the side lol
I usually just multiply amps by 10 and that's roughly what most amps will do assuming 70% efficiency.
Awesome 6.5 COMPONENT! Hight Quality and good job!
Huh? These aren't "component" speakers... they're subwoofers
I only have one 6.5 Meso subwoofer and I love it so far!! Thanks for sharing the difference between the 2 of them 👍!!! Those will be AWESOME for whoever wins the 6.5's or 8's subwoofers. The Sundown subwoofer is also going to be AWESOME for whoever wins that one too!! Thank you so much for doing the giveaways Parker, your AWESOME!!!!!
How does a single 6.5 meso sound? What’s to expect in a single built to spec box? Can’t find any videos on that
I could use that woofer in my 2 8” subs build I’m going to build for my 2008 Silverado extended cab!! Love your videos Parker!
Working on my 08 extended cab still, bought 2 6.5 vfls in a d4s prefab for now, decided there is no other place than a custom center console for a sub worth a scrap in these trucks..even 3" loft on the seat barely nets enuff for a pair of good 10s. What did u end up doin ur truck?
Hey thanks for ur vid. My fam has a set of the CT Meso-6.5-D4 in her Ford Edge. I know that they are several years old now but I still want them.
I'm trying to locate the perfect box for my 6.5 Meso-D4 subwoofers to fit in the middle of my Ford Edge.
Can't wait to purchase those subwoofers.
Thanks for ur vid. 😊
I’ve thought about putting 6.5s in my rear doors of my suv or maybe 8 s it came with 6.5 factory but haven’t had it apart to see if I have any kinda room for eather one but hey I like the video I kinda figured that the 8’s would be louder ! I haven’t had any ct sounds stuff so far but I like what I read and see from them ! Thx bass on back to you to man !
That's crazy all the subs I'm wondering about Parker man ur doing good reviews and ur give aways are insane L7 ND CT sounds jaw drooping I've wonder in DB ND CT lately . Your videos are awesome
Great video! I think the cold weather might have been bothering you a little bit Parker. Lol
love those 6.5
xlr by bones is just crazy lol thank you for using it
I've got a pair of the CT Sounds Tropo 8inch D4 subwoofers powered by a Kenwood Excelon xr900-5 5channel amp and they do 134db on the windshield with the little 5 channel amp
With such a high Fs and high tuning on the box, wasn't suprised to get great output at higher frequencies! I know CT recommends high tuning, but you can get away with a .4 - .5 per cube enclosure tuned around 35-36 hz and get nice lows without bottoming out the subs like you almost did. I have owned 4 of the Meso 8's and various other CT products and was very happy with everything. Great video man, keep it up!!
I just ordered 2 10 inch meso’s for my Chevy S10 extended cab with the jump seat. Pairing it with a taramps 3k so maybe a tad overkill but leaves some room to grow.
Do you think this Setup would be pretty loud? My old system was dual alpine type X 12s in my first car (Camry lol) and it was a lot of fun but not very loud. I’m hoping my new build in my truck will be louder. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Taramps sound like ass...
Bro loved the video! I’ve been going back and fourth over , ct 8 or 10, or skar or a kicker cv or solo. I’d love to know what iyo sound best sq and bass wise . Not looking for booming bass in my benz . Also would love enter for that 8 giveaway not the sundown that thing is stupid beastly lol! Keep bassing on bruh
Ive definitely got my fingers crossed for this Sundown V2 giveaway!
For me its all about available space and efficiency. I've helped do builds with both 8s and 6s both have there place in the audio world.
If you only had 2 cuft available would you rather do two 8s or four 6.5s for single cab truck ?
4 6.5 all day
Kinda love ur possitivity..
Man that is awesome ...I have two 15 meso d2 on a 3000 .1 Taramp
The Bridge In /Bridge Out connections on that smaller amp are the same as the Master/Slave of the larger amp.
Look for the MASTER OUT RCA on the master amplifier and connect it to the SLAVE INRCA on the slave amplifier. If your amp is labeled differently, look for BRIDGE OUT and BRIDGE IN connectors. The BRIDGE OUT from the master amp connects to the BRIDGE IN on the slave.
Both those amps are bridgeable!!
Another one..... great video
Nice results.
Both are really awesome amp and subs😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
A good portion of why they dont get louder in spl over 6kw would be the port area of the slot port hitting compression. Try out a bandpass for these.
When I was teenager I only play with 12" and 15", but as I get into early 30's I sort of become more diplomatic and more towards audiophile kind of bass. 6.5" or 8" is my sweet spot accurate bass and balance sound not overkill. But man damn I miss the moment just went to school and bang those 15" JBL bad boys.
I'm same as I got a bit older and for type of music I listen to, a single 10" in a proper box with proper power does just fine and is more than loud enough for me
im actually thinking of ditching my 15 for 4x 8s. was it worth it? does it sound good? sounds like u miss the big subs.
In your opinion being a little bit space limited... what will be a better option? 3 8s or 4 6.5s?? But the tropo series? Thanks bud excellent video and explanation 🤘🏻🤘🏻
How well thought and put together your videos are you deserve more love !! Love watching your videos !! I would like your Facebook page but my account just got hacked so it’s locked n my old phone numbers on there so she’s a gonner. Just totaled my car I got a week ago n my subs and amp are totaled as well would be a great help to win these a subwoofer either way still gonna watch your videos because I thoroughly enjoy !! Have a great night/days
The 8s have more cone area so more bass. Nice little 6.5s.
CT’s have a nice range. Just picked up Skar EVL 6.5’s, still working on the box. Been running Tang Band w6 in doors for a while. Figured try an enclosure with the Skars before maybe moving into doors. Not looking to go over 200rms each. Might try them at 8ohm boxed, 4ohm stereo in doors
How did they do for you contemplating buying 2 but i bought the 8 zvx and wasnt that happy with it
I love my 8's. Just metered them a 147.8 @ 32 hz. clamped with 2505 watts. The new VFL 8's.
😳How many 8s do You have and what vehicle?
You have like 25 of them in a giant box, or what?
I would love for you to test out the SSA F8lL 8" beast....priced pretty good too...
I know it's an old thread, but info is still good. I wanted something different in 6.5 for a fwd facing box in the Ford Raptor. I'm going with 4 Ampere Audio AA-2.5 RVE 6.5" D2. I was curious if you had any experience with them? If not, test them. They seem to have better build materials than the CT, Sundown and Massive HippoXL. A larger 2.5 inch copper dual voice coil vs 2 inch aluminum. Opinion?
i'm putting 3 of these in my G37 on a ct sounds ct1500.1d. i hope it sounds good. i'm replacing a sundown u-12. it just took up too much trunk. great video! will like/subscribe and hit up your FB
Those 8" Meso subs are nice.
So are the 6.5s... 🤷🏻
Fun fact: for those who remember Klipsch promedia 2.1 the original versions sub is 6.5 and the newest iteration has 8 and you'll be surprised which one is louder and can produce deeper bass
Been a sub for awhile but now followed Facebook! I need that V2!!!!
Pumped for zvx6!!!
Is bridgeable via rca instead of data link wire. Beautiful little monster subs ❤ 😍 💙
Really beefy small 6.5s :) It wuold be interesting to try out one of them in my box made for my 6.5 inch driver: 22.6 liters (0.79-0.8 cuft) net volume tuned to 22 Hz (vids of it on my channel). Also the 8s: seems to be that they are better in every aspect, and also seems to be that they doesn't need so much bigger box, so in my opinion it is a way better idea to go with them, so... :)
Meh they're really just cheap Chinese stuff with a big magnet. They are nothing special. I'd rather pay triple and get something from B2 Audio or something equivalent instead.
Parker... have you by chanced tried a 15 of the Meso series? how do they compare to a Skar VXF? I was thinking of swapping my VXF 15 for a MESO 15 since I already run a CT Sounds AT1400.1 amp.
I followed and liked your Facebook bro and have been watching your CZcams vids for a while now 🙂
I appreciate you Joel!!!
I have a ground zero 8 that looks suspiciously similar to that one. It doesn't hit lows like a 12 but I'm sure it's better 6.5's in probably the same size enclosure. Also it can hit 133 playing music on around 400 watts
Any sub can play lows doesn't matter the size
Bridge in and out is for strapping another amp n id give the 6.5s a try im currently using 4 8in skars in ny nissan n 4 15 audiopipe in my durango
I have a pair of the 8’s they are super nice
can't wait to get my 4 resilient sounds 8's in a box.
Those are pricey but I hear they're very good quality sub.
I have the new Meso 8" and that little beast of a sub likes big boxes. I had other single boxes for 8" and it did not like any of them I ended up building another box.
That set up would go nice in my car
Can you show us that roadrunner 2way speaker set up ? Just got one looking so see what speakers i should install
2012 chevy crew cab not much room so I went with 6.5 skar evil 2 of them but will get 2 more so 2 on each side on a taramps smart 3

Have you tried ct sounds
I love my 2 B2 Audio Rampage 8s I can’t believe my 8s sound as good, loud & clear as my 2 DC level 4 10s the only reason I went with 8s was I needed more space…
@alifer canimper yes I Believe You are right on point
I posted a video on my channel if you guys want to see my B2 Audio Rampage 8s fully broken in shaking my whole minivan I don’t know how but it’s shaking a lil too much …
I had 3 B2 riot 15s and they were pretty but thats all i slammed them for about two hours and they literally came unglued from the basket at the surround and no they never blew the coil or overheated just bad production and worse of all they wouldnt even warranty them cause i waited 90 days before i used them i had my truck at the shop getting custom box fiber glass work done and all the bells and whistles so they(B2) are 2 crapoy for me i run Team Untouchable sounds now they really care about there customers satisfaction and have no communication problems actually they contact me quite often making sure all is good with my purchase its the best hands down service iv ever gotten.
@@RollingThunder85 sad to hear they did not work for u but for me lucky I had a couple of people telling me don’t play them full volume right out the box if not u will be reconing them so I broke mines in because if not who knows, it also says it on the manual but Im glad u found some subs that worked out in your favor
@@2008guelo i broke mine in i been doing this for about 15yrs bud the glue dindnt bond to the freshly painted uncured basket on top of that they sent me 2 different series subs the first two had glue down spiders and the third was glued and screwed but screws were also loose
8's are nice, but I'm liking 10's lately. One day whenever i can afford it, I want to get a CT sounds strato 10. You should get your hands on a strato and test it.
Im wanting to try. 3- of those meso 6.5s. I'm currently running 3 -6.5 evl skar in custom down fire box behind the seat in my old square body chevy on. Stetsom 1200.1. It metered a 138.2 @ 37 hz clamping 608 watts. But the evls are only 200 rms. I'm wanting to step up to the Meso cause they're double the power of the skars
Nice subs!
NICE!!!
What do you think about the mephis audio mojo 6.5? I'd be interested in what you think...
Would you recommend these ? I want to install only one on my access cab tacoma. Not sure if I want the 8 or 6.5 I don't want anything crazy but i do want something over the stock system
Can’t wait for the give away would be dope to win that sub
Parker it deff can be master/slave, came from Calvin himself in ctsounds fb group
I just wish wolfram would get their cu8’s In they are seriously impressive. I daily one on 1300w and I feel like it could take a whole lot more.
Are u giveing away those DDX subs ,,from the sundown ,skar video?
Now if only you can do a quick review on the Wolfram CU-8 sub, that would be awesome!!!
Would love to see you do some D4S amps pushing some subs....
Been looking at CT for a daily build.
I have meso components and 2 8” meso. They are loud and clear. The price is good. I have no idea about the amps though
New to all this, Massiv or CTsounds? What should I go with? I’m looking for a pair of 6.5s
I have always liked 8s
I just got 2 new db apocalypse sa2508 1ohm 8's. Need to find/build a box then swapping them with my skar zvx15.
I’m looking for one to play the high bass notes all the funk and zap and Rodger bass up front with my 500 JL amp. My Yukon had a woofer up front and sounded good. I want to put a 6.5 or shallow or whatever in middle consol of the Prius’s got a skar 12 evl in back and everything else amped up. I want that front fill bass like the ok Yukon I had was cool
If you are trying to move air, there is no substitute for cone real-estate. The more cone you have, the more air you can move.
Don't get me wrong, small cones do have their uses. And they do a great job at what they're designed to do. I own 8s, 12s, and 15s, and I use them all.
Debating on keeping my rp800.1 skar amp or get the 700.1 ct sound amp got the ct sound 80.4 only reason i would do it cause the skar amp is a bit big not sure where i want to mount amps yet
Hey, got a quick question, gotta build a box and tight space that I got would it make sense single 8 inch port box vs. dual 6.5 inch sealed box. Can’t find much information what would sound better
Dimensions for the box ? Plan on building one for my trailblazer
I have a first gen sequoia I'm torn between 4- 8" VFLs or 2- 12" American bass .I'm running 2- 8" VFLS NOW. I just want a lil more bang.
You should do a audiopipe txxbdc4-8 review
Nice vid.
Could you run the 6.5 in a door speaker setup? Specifically for an obs tahoe???
What's a good amp for my 4 Audiopipe Txx-bdc3-10 . 4 om's ... Will a Taramps. Smart 3k do it at 2 ohms
I just brought 1 6 and a 1/2 and I'm not sure. Should I put polly inside of my bass tube what do you think ?
I have the 700 amp on my UTV its pushing an audiopipe 12in sub
Parker Wil you please send me a the measurements and all the specks of a 2tens in a ported box where I can follow to cut the box out please sir parker
Would I be able to use the 6.5 as a door component or would it be to beefy?
