People only Hate on Skar Cuz they sell direct to keep the cost down! Sundown & other over priced companies have a middle man which in turn the price rolls on to the consumer!!! Do your research and you will find that Skar skv2 amps & Sundown amps come from the same building house and if Parker gets for instance the Skar skv2 200 . 4 look at the amp guts & you will see with your own eyes they are the same!!! Love your videos Parker keep up the good work
@@davidengland6741 Oh i completely agree. Sayin Parker has shown what he really thinks and always says its not like a sundown or its not like what you would see on sundown. Comments like that. You can tell thinks alot of sundown and not so much skar. my whole truck is skar mids & highs & started with 150.4's too.
Skar amps are not exactly the same as sundown. The circuit design used by the the build house in China is a generic design used by many companies. The difference between brands is in the quality of parts used and options that can be added to the final product like bass knobs, clip lights, type of race connectors etc. The fact they send out subs that dont even have the push terminals on straight tells you what kind of quality your getting. Their products may perform well but the clock is ticking on the amount of time they will be functioning. Skar straight up copies sundown designs and overall appearance and tries to get customers based on sun sundown's deserved reputation. Extremely shady business practices, I wouldn't support that company for any reason.
Love your videos parker. I look forward to your new videos every Sunday. Your videos def have swayed my decision on many products after seeing you test them.
Love the videos brother... Thank you for helping keep me going. Means a lot to me. I know its something so simple. I really enjoy watching your videos. God bless brother!! That sub looks absolutely amazing.
Great video Parker love your honesty and stay true to yourself. Trust me I've used many of this brand's products doing so many people's systems and let me just say I would never recommend them.
BTW, having the rear interior panel removed decreases a 1/2 dB or so because the sound waves become trapped inside all of those holes of the hollow body cavities. Need to keep setups consistent during dB tests. IMO the VXF has a BETTER voice coil. PD needs to keep comparisons unbiased by simply presenting the facts, eliminating the "I think.." or "IMO" or feelings overall because it's persuading the majority of viewers. I'd like for him to conduct tests like a scientist does. Google it if anyone is unfamiliar with the rules.
Got a buddy with 2 DDX 12 in a custom box 1 ohm on a 2k amp . The subs get see about 1200 a piece due to him sitting at 14v . They definitely take the power and produce some serious SPL. Box costed more than the subs. But it's worth it with SPL subs .
Hey thanks for helping me make up my mind on what skar sub to buy! Question for you though, of all the $200+ dollar 12"s what one got the lowest and sounded the best? I of course want it to pound me out my seat but don't want it to sound like crap doin it. It's a balance for sure just want to know what one you personally prefer . thanks hope you can get back to me n take care. Keep up the good work
Roughly 20 Years ago stereo equiptment was quite different but, I ran a cadence electronic crossover because it offered a 7 volt line driver then 2 kicker 240 amp's into 2 fosgate H X 12'S now the amps had been mailed to kicker and rebuilt and from what I was told the pushed a hair more than factory but even still they probably only pushed 350-400 watt bridged down. I ran one duel 4 sub per amp at two ohm now I could have and probably should have ran a duel 1 but we hit 144 our first time in a competition and mind you, there was mad junk under the seat which makes me wonder what it really hit but when I hear 2800 watt I would expect higher #'s I guess! But back then things were alot different!
Hell yeah glad you reviewed this sub as it's the same one I have, I'm only running it on an audiopipe 1500 tho and in a smaller box and it still beats hard in my trailblazer, I was really looking forward to the rms test as I'm looking to get a bigger amp and maybe another vxf in the future. Great video man keep them coming!!!
That is very impressive on the amount of spl that sub had. Your box looks smaller than the prior videos? Subs handle more power and better for spl in small boxes.
I purchased this subwoofer because of you, and sweet Lord, that thing is impressive!!! I'm underpowering it by 300 watts, and it's still vicious. Thank you so much, sir
wish SKAR would send 12" subs to Hawaii, I've been wanting to try a VXF 12 since I've seen it on your channel and others. there are some shops that sell SKAR 12s & 15s, but the mark up price here in Hawaii is crazy. Mahalos for all the awesome videos bro
Yo Parker love all your videos my man. Got a question for a pro I wanna by a skar 10” evl I have a skar sdr 10” it’s really nice. Do u think I will hear a change in the evl it’s like 400 rms more and a bit bigger voice coil? 👍✌️🤙🇺🇸
Hey Parker, I loved my VXF Subs, It’s funny that you talked about how thin the basket is on some parts. Mine broke when i got rear ended. Left me with a spine injury so a pretty bad crash but honestly I never had trouble with the basket except when i got rear ended but I guess you can expect that on impact of a bad crash
@American_Fighter Yeah man its super thin, I rolled my truck over going down a 20ft hill the other day and mine snapped. Shit quality baskets tbh.... :(
I had a vxf12.hit nice but i didn't care for the slim space between the top and spider with a double baffle or even triple baffle.so i feel unless theyre inverted its not a good design..so i got a vxf15 now👌
I just ordered one of these and idk what amp to use any suggestions? Just running one in the trunk of my car and if I like it ima buy a old Cherokee and make a build in it I love sundown but I don’t see a point when skar exist
Which subwoofer will you recommend the Toro Force 12 1500 watts RMS or the skar vxf 12-in. I'm planning on buying a pair of subwoofers and I'm trying to see which one I should go with .even the CT sounds meso 12 which one would you prefer for SQL/SPL hybrid.
I know this is random but have you ever used an earthquake slaps passive radiator? I’m working with some tight space (2.2cf) behind my f-250 rear seat. Thought about 2 skar shallow 12s and 2 12” passive radiators.
I was between this and the zvx 15 to replace the rockford Fosgate T2 15 that had the coil separate until i can get it re coned I went with the zvx but now im wishing I got this one.
Hope my hifonics Brutus amp is good enough supposed to be 1200 rms . It keeps burning up subwoofers so decided to just go with a high watteage rms . What yal think. I have a sdr skar box hopefully everything works good
Hello. Great channel and info! Hope you can help me out. I have a 1200.1 rockford fosgate prime (1500 watt rms at 1 ohm on dyno). Would that push a 12" skar evl?
@SSC_JXN I wouldn't buy the X series. I would either save up for the Zv5 or just go skar. Zvx 15 from Skar and the x-15 from Sundown are basically the same thing just skar is cheaper. now if you want something better than the zvx you're going to have to get the zv5.
Can any recommend between these two sun I have which will be a better keep I just have to choose one I have a skar vxf 12" d2 or a fi q with the quad stack magnet 12" d1 both will be on a Orion xtr 2500.1dz box will be built to specs which will be louder and play lower looking for sql
Parker Do You Know Anything About The Taramps 160K Amp And If So, Let Me Know What Type Of Sub Setup Would Match Up With It,, In A 2 Or 4 Sub Ported Enclosure
@@tupbeatz2740 that’s what I’m wondering with my single 15. I can’t hear it too much outside my car unless I open all my doors.. But it’s weird because my homie said he can hear my from across the parking lot as he was walking outside of the work complex which is like 2 buildings over and quite a walking distance. He said you could feel and hear the deep bass rumbles So definetly yeah.
Hey parker is the VFX a better performing sub then the orion hcca 12"?? I'm doing a single 12" system atm for both SpL n SQ I want something that gets loud n proud but also sounds good doing so.. n I used to have 4 orion hcca 12.2s on 4 orion hcca 4500s. It was a evil ass system 161.5 db my highest score ever from it. And music it pushed 159.8 which was nice but I never listen to music that loud I normally run rap songs in the 134 db to 141 DB ranges the 130s it sounds perfect ya know. The 140s on music is just to loud unless it a damn good song lmao. But anyway I'm doing a single 12" n my sub choices atm are the VFX 12 D2 , hcca 12.2 , sundown SA v2 , sundown X v2... And then the Skar Zfx or whatever it is the biggest Skar 12.. anyway those are the subs I'm choosing between
I had a single 12 on a RP2000 in a 2cu ported box in my Tundra. I don’t thing you could ask for more except another one and double power. Definitely a sq sub but holds it’s on on spl, just not as sting as Xcode, in that area!! Bottom line..you won’t be disappointed!!!
Hey Parker, been following you for a while great info... off topic from this video, but I bought 2 Toro Fierce 12 and need to build a box, subs come with specs but for a single sub, will double the spec info but my question is should I need a divider? Your input would be appreciated, thanks
I'm not Parker but you can use a divider or you don't have to. It depends. For two 12s I'd do something atleast like 4.2 cu ft and the port area depends on how you want it
did you get a new mic???? listen to the bass volume differance between the ZVX, and the VXF. is the VXF realy that much better? also, how does it get lower, if the xmaxx is 13mm less than the ZVX
Ran 2 on a rp3500 for 1 year and finallyy tinsel leads broke. It was good till then. The emf bamhammer and Wolfram au 12 are the same thing but better, skar is the cheaper option
Great review I had the Skar SVR which was really good for the money but upgraded to the VXF And it eats 1700rms easily and has really good sound quality, this and the XFL seem to be the ones to to pick depending on price
I use the Skar SVR 10” DVC2 in Skar’s factory enclosure running at 1 ohm load also swapped out my Skar RP800 for Down4Sound’s JP8 getting “Huge” wattage gains pulling much less voltage on my New Honda Civic’s New Interstate battery (ONLY) under my hood. JP amps are stackable/linkable Slave amps that are stable at 0.5 ohms for you “TRUE BassHeads” and they come with awesome bass knobs with multiple warning lights and lighted numbers, built in cooling fan, plexi bottom, my JP8 is worth “ALL” the CZcams hype and I’m over joyed getting my JP8 for my B-Day tomorrow 11/27!#🔊#SkarAudioSubs#JP8(Amp)#JPAmps@Down4Soundshops
I’ve been running 2 vfx15s on 3200 watts. The amp died before the subs so now they are both on their own rp2k and they genuinely swallow 2000 watts for 2 hours a day. I think my back hatch window will break before these subs. I’m definitely a retired sundown fan.
Parker why would you buy the dual 4ohm and not a dual 2ohm if you're only running one of them? Ya should have got the dual 2 and then even if ya add another one later on you can wire to a 2ohm final or half ohm which your amp should be stable down to half and able to extract the most power out of it wired that low
Hey Parker, i have a question: have you experienced that, when installing a subwoofer in the car, it does not play that good at first. But better after a while? Why is that? I have experienced it with used and new subs...
The sub has to soften up and loosen up its called a break in period' just like a 2 stroke dirtbike or a new motor for a car supposed to take it easy on them for a while amd then they will loosen up
Please pay attention the TI basket 12" you cannot have really thick baffle. There's not really a lot of space from the mounting surface to the spider landings for the sub to breathe.
Another thing that would tremendously up the "sq" factor of many of these subs is a high quality korean board amp. I went from the Skar SKv2 4500.1 to the BASS 12K and while the 12k is louder, it doesn't have the "depth" that the SK did, if that makes sense. It doesn't sound as "real"
Final some one that agreed with me. I removed a sundown sax 2500 for a taramps 3k it was loud but sound really bad. All bass tone sounds flat with no depth to the bass. Sundown sounds way better and it's 12 years old
People only Hate on Skar Cuz they sell direct to keep the cost down! Sundown & other over priced companies have a middle man which in turn the price rolls on to the consumer!!!

What's the box size and tuning?
Zachary is it sealed? Ported n tuned in the 40 hertz range? Did you ever get a 2nd one?
Nicely done as always
That is very impressive on the amount of spl that sub had. Your box looks smaller than the prior videos? Subs handle more power and better for spl in small boxes.
I love that SMD terminal your using makes it very easy to change your subs ohms by switching the outside wires on the terminal.
So does 8$ worth of brass bolts ya drill n place yourself but hey only way smd gonna get rich is ripping fools heads ya know
These might be my next subs I get. I think it would be an upgrade to my orion xtreme 12d4. What do you think?
Order from Skar directly, better price and way faster delivery and their service is AMAZING
Apparently I'm an SQ guy. I love the lows. Everything 30 hertz and under. Didn't realize till now SPL run higher HZ.

Should also try the resilient sounds gold 12
Which hits harder EV-12 Skar or the ones in your video? I want install 4 12 skar audio with an amplifier and a clean box set up.

Great review I had the Skar SVR which was really good for the money but upgraded to the VXF And it eats 1700rms easily and has really good sound quality, this and the XFL seem to be the ones to to pick depending on price
I use the Skar SVR 10” DVC2 in Skar’s factory enclosure running at 1 ohm load also swapped out my Skar RP800 for Down4Sound’s JP8 getting “Huge” wattage gains pulling much less voltage on my New Honda Civic’s New Interstate battery (ONLY) under my hood. JP amps are stackable/linkable Slave amps that are stable at 0.5 ohms for you “TRUE BassHeads” and they come with awesome bass knobs with multiple warning lights and lighted numbers, built in cooling fan, plexi bottom, my JP8 is worth “ALL” the CZcams hype and I’m over joyed getting my JP8 for my B-Day tomorrow 11/27!#🔊#SkarAudioSubs#JP8(Amp)#JPAmps@Down4Soundshops
Ya I got mine on 1500 watts rms and it laughs at it great lil monster sub and is still very stiff maybe in the future I go up to 1700 watts
I’ve been running 2 vfx15s on 3200 watts.
The amp died before the subs so now they are both on their own rp2k and they genuinely swallow 2000 watts for 2 hours a day. I think my back hatch window will break before these subs.
I’m definitely a retired sundown fan.
Do resilient sound next 👀👀
You can bump these full tilt all day, it will take, whteva you throw at it! 🔥💯🔥🤔
Parker why would you buy the dual 4ohm and not a dual 2ohm if you're only running one of them? Ya should have got the dual 2 and then even if ya add another one later on you can wire to a 2ohm final or half ohm which your amp should be stable down to half and able to extract the most power out of it wired that low
Vxf is a dope sub, I got 2 15 vxf
Can you do the skar vxf versus the resilient sounds gold subwoofer
Hey Parker, i have a question: have you experienced that, when installing a subwoofer in the car, it does not play that good at first. But better after a while? Why is that? I have experienced it with used and new subs...
Yes the subs have to break in
@@ParkerTheBasshead used subs as well? Thanks for answers btw!
The sub has to soften up and loosen up its called a break in period' just like a 2 stroke dirtbike or a new motor for a car supposed to take it easy on them for a while amd then they will loosen up
Sub when new are stiff and need to be broken in
@@mikemoses1009 i have experienced it with used subs too. Like putting a subwoofer box from one car to another.. it plays better after a while of use
Please pay attention the TI basket 12" you cannot have really thick baffle. There's not really a lot of space from the mounting surface to the spider landings for the sub to breathe.
Another thing that would tremendously up the "sq" factor of many of these subs is a high quality korean board amp. I went from the Skar SKv2 4500.1 to the BASS 12K and while the 12k is louder, it doesn't have the "depth" that the SK did, if that makes sense. It doesn't sound as "real"
Final some one that agreed with me. I removed a sundown sax 2500 for a taramps 3k it was loud but sound really bad. All bass tone sounds flat with no depth to the bass. Sundown sounds way better and it's 12 years old
You think that a skar skv2 4500 would handle two vxf 15ns fine or they would be underpowered?
Can you please try som Ground Zero subs?
I like that mic you got more basssss....
