Bought my Destroyer 12d2 after watching your reviews. Keep up the good work I’m definitely satisfied. Hits the lows nice. Box could use a lil tuning to hit lower. I’ve been a 15s type of person but this 12 made me raise my eyebrows.
You get a box, battery, and bigger wire. That thing would slam like 10db more. Boxes and power are key. Those Rockville subs are sweet. If I didnt get my Resilent sounds platinum 12s. I honestly was gonna get a couple of these subs.
It seems you are doing quite well at getting this video's out first.😊👏👏 I as well as a few others were curious about this model of Rockvilless subs and I am some what impressed. thanks for the demo 😎
Parker Dacchille yes, it helped me see the how it moves and opens the door towards a up coming Rockville build in my near future. Videos such as this gives greatbisight to thosevwhom may have questions and those who are as myself are curious but not enough to purchase a sub just for testing. I am a member of several Face Book groups and I have several builds dedicated for each group but and seeing what others are doing with this audio allow me to obsearve how it perform which saves me time in testing.
Two 12w3v3s. 700 watts from a fosgate prime 1200 1ohm stable but wired at 2 to protect the subs. Rearview mirror stares at the floor all the time. Windshield flexing until I worry about it. Rockville does not deserve any of this positive publicity. Excellent video, please post when it blows up.
Quinn Meche hate to tell you bud but Rockville has stepped their subs and amps up. I’ve got a Rockville k6 12 in a 3 cube box (yeah Ik it’s overkill) and have been pounding on it with a cheap Orion 5k giving it about 800 watts rms and it’s taken every bit of it. Only way your blowing this sub is if he clips it or goes about 500 watts over the rating🤷🏼♂️
@@ParkerTheBasshead well, let me know in 6 months if it is still running. Real request, I would love to see if they have really stepped up. Also, might want to replace the box if it isn't to spec. The box makes a lot of difference.
As much as that sub was moving, I don't think you need a stronger amp, especially since you got it in a ported box. If you had it in a sealed box you'd definitely wanna upgrade your electrical, larger wire, battery for sure. Alternator will cost a bit more, but I got one on eBay from a company that builds them out in California. Paid $200 for a 300amp. I clamped it at 287 amps while I was banging. I've had it 6 months now and no problems. It feeds my Orion XTR 2500.1DZ and my XS D3400 pretty well. I been looking at some Rockvilles myself. I wanna put a 12 to catch the bass range above my HCCA 152. It bangs the sub bass range (20-80hz) but I got nothing above that (80-250hz).. Lol. I'm glad you got this sub. Now I can see if it holds up. Thanks for the video man.

It nice to c u bumping n helping the fellow bass heads. U should try to build another box n review the sub again. It seems to be able to be lowder with a longer port.
You just need a better box and more power. Along with all that goes along with having those things. Then you'll be shaking down the block for sure. Good video

Nothing like 15 inch subwoofer. How good is sound quality. I've been skeptical of cheap version for the last 30 years. I'm a Fosgate power OLD school Guy.

The ohm.is not that important as far as the subs performance u r really better off getting a dvc 4 and running a two ohm stable amp they r more efficient, if u ever plan to get a second sub and it would be dvc 2 Ohm then it would put a 0.5 ohm load on your amp which is hard for any amp even if they r rated for it which not many are
@@jOhnVd0e it is going to depend on your goals if u plan to only run one subs forever u can go with a d4 and that would put the ohm load at one ohm, but imo if I get a dual 2 u can run a 2 Ohm amp and in the future if u want to add another sub u can get another d2 and that would put an ohm load at 1 ohm so it really depends on your goal and endgame plan, but usually when u get one u end up with two or even six subs as I have before in the past, at a website called the12volt.com they have calculators that will help u understand your ohm load better
U r welcome to email me at Dwh1218@gmail.com, and I will give u an advice I can been doing car audio for 20 years installed for s few years and now just do it for me and my buddies I have a 12k+ build with seven batteries and dual high output alternators, so I will lend my knowledge and maybe save ya some money
Daniel Harrell I preordered my wolfram 4500.1 so it'll go with no matter what sub I throw at it but I'm just building a box for 3 HD 10's maybe later switch it up for something after I get bored of that setup but I will check that site out thanks!
Since that is a single sub set-up with the sub almost all the way to the side aim it towards the back with the sub almost facing corner and i would bet you will gain a solid 1.5-2 db if not more.
Wonder, if the coil will last in that sub, since their last 2 subs they released, burn up super fast and Rockville spent 2 weeks making lies about it. Lol
Give that thing some more power, better box spec and tune and i think it’ll be loud AF! looks like it’s doing good tho right now, just think it’s got a lot more potential
Btw bro I’m not hating AT ALL. Just what I felt like was good advice. You look like you genuinely love bass bro, keep on keeping on. I watch your videos whenever I get the time man. Bass on!
Appreciate you man! Got a new amp and ran all new wire. Video will be uploaded as soon as I have time to edit it. I may build a box this summer if I have time
Cut the inside port wall out of it and screw a board over the port opening to make it a sealed box. Than get a 4 or 6 inch diameter aeroport or pvc pipe and cut it to length to make it 31hz, it will sound better.
@Parker Dacchille how accurate is ohms law equation for tuning amplifiers? Ohms law is power times ohms and square root that equals voltage output at speaker terminals is close to what that amp should put out for that subwoofer. Ok so I have a Rockville rxd-m3 amp which is true rms at 1000 watts at 1 ohm so I took ohms law and got 31.62 volts at speaker terminals for 1000 watts power output to subwoofer and I'm just wondering how accurate that law is I used a 40 hz test tone
I actually had a rp2k for 2 months and returned it for a skv2.2500, now I have deaf bonce 4k and realize skar is budget friendly but not as good quality at all.. there skv2 line is a Korean board but still built in China
@@tankdog03ify never tried dead bounce so i can't really say much lol but I own the skar rp800 as well as the 1500 and there nothing but hard working amps!
Absolutely agree skar rp amps are crap almost bought one myself and had owners of audio shops tell me nothing but bad..its not clean power it's just power..I would look into upgrading your electrical system first...need power to make power..
Listen Parker I'm about to run 8-Rockville 12d1s powered by 8-Taramp MD 8000.1s in my 1984 Oldsmobile delta88 real soon. ut I've been seeing a lot of bashing on those subs on social media.
Did You have any Heat issues with this sub when playing it after 15mins at a time? Been thinking about buying this sub. I cant decide between These 3 Subs. 1) This Rockville Destroyer 2) Skar Vfx 3) SQ HDX3 I have a NVX 5400watt/2700watt rms Amp. So ima be buying 2 12s. What do you think is better between those 3 Subs? I want something that wont have heat issues & need them to be Reliable as possible. I Want YOUR Opinion bro. Plz be honest an just tell me what You'd go with.
In your honest opinion would you purchase 4 to replace 4 existing Rockville Subs. 12 cube enclosure with 10in Aero port turned at 38. Or use the money for a different sub at a close caliber
I’d probably get the American Bass HDs. You can find them close to the same price and they are proven to be good subs where as this Rockville has barely been tested by anyone
@@ParkerTheBasshead 10-4 my friend. I trust your opinion. I was kind of leaning the same direction on that sub being so new and to what we're going to put them through , guess I just needed to hear it said out loud
I have that setup with a 15inch destroyer at 2ohms with a 3000 taramp . I have it hooked up at 4ohms and the bass is still load yet extremely clear ....of course ... get the right box . I have my box at 34 ... and the speaker I believe is 33
Would you please do a video on comparing your dB meter with the phone app called "Decibel X" to see how accurate it is compared to your actual SPL meter. I bet viewers would like to know because we don't want to buy an SPL meter just to test our one system ($199-$500)
Hey Brandon, have you ever considered the Epicenter by Audio Control? They have an in dash unit that displays voltage or SPL. I've read different reports, some say the meter isn't very accurate, others say it's very accurate. Plus, the epicenter generates some awesome tones. If u like bass.
Wow the destroyer seems to be next to get killed on RUclips by people I'm hoping you can do another video as well on it someday just to see your views on it as time goes by.
Haha yeah I saw EXOs video. Hope he makes one. Mine has done really well but I’ve only had it on a 2k amp so after box rise it isn’t seeing 2k. And for $260 there are definitely other subs I could have gotten that would probably be better
Size of wire doesn't mean a whole lot if you don't have the "big 3 or big 4 done" Ofc 4Gauge is plenty for a ap1500 Just means your box is wack to have that much movement on MAYBE 1000 1200W Takes electrical to make power
Another good cheap amp is the Rockville db16 dynoes out at over 2k @2 ohms, the phenoms are stable to 1ohm. I grabbed a ppi ice7000.1 cause it's .5 ohm stable and dynoes out at 3800 rms. I will be starting my new build very soon, can't wait. No one has reviewed the American bass shallow subs yet so I will ( 2 es1244's on about 2800rms) , hope it slams cause there isn't room in my new truck for my xfl
@@ParkerTheBasshead yeah, this is your bud in Gibsonville, I have the d6 10 in dual 2 ohm in a q bomb vented box. Running it on a small 450 watt amp and I feel like it can do more with a better amp cause I'm running it on 4 ohms bridged. Should I have gotten the 4 ohm dvc so I can run at 1 ohm mono? Don't know if I have the crossover set at the right frequency either. Not real sure about the adjustments on it to get the lowest bass response. Love the sub though but am really contemplating on the d9 or the destroyer.
Mike Cuev oh ok cool I remember now. And a DVC 4 ohm can be wired down to 2 ohms and a DVC 2 ohm can be wired down to 1 ohm. Some amps aren’t stable at 1 ohm however. And when a 2 channel is bridged it often isn’t only stable at 4 ohms and not 2 ohms. If you wanted to make the drive I’d sell you the Rockville. Follow me on Instagram @parkerdacch and shoot me a message. Easier to talk there than on here
This one rattles the car a little more and so the camera picks that up more than you would in person. That being said the American Bass is incredible and I bet the HD would out due this Rockville
I just subscribe to this page and I have never liked or subscribed to any page before. But yo Parker my man I like what you doing keep it up, and could you recommend any subwoofer up to $350 that will handle a Wolfram 4500 or anybody out there
Well i am flattered! It will be hard to find something that can continuously handle the 4500 for $350. However, so long as you don’t go full tilt 24/7 you should be able to find some decent subs. Look up Fi Audio. Also EM Audio. I think they make a 3k sub around that price
@@ParkerTheBasshead I'm only going to be running 4 ohms so about 1300 RMS watts is all I'll be doing do you think 4 Rockville destroyers will work or are the Audiopipe or American bass more highly recommended right now I'm running 4 Champion series Pro and they don't come close!!!! I'm just looking for a good clean solid bass and when I bought that app I got more than I was bargaining for now I need subs that a handle it
@@ParkerTheBasshead that's what's hooked up right now and I'm looking to upgrade. Hey man you reply faster than the guy from Wolfram audio I think that's upstanding a quality I don't know how you do it
I just came across these subs on Amazon like an hour ago. I've since then been looking into em and I gotta say, they definitely seem like some monsters for the price tag. I was an Audiopipe guy forever BD3's then a single BD4 and that mf hit hard... This sub is only $80 more than a single BD4 15 and will handle 600 more watts. I also like how fat that lip is. These mfs are extra beefy 💪🏻💪🏻.. I'm definitely lookin forward to gettin one of these houndin in the trunk of my Lucerne this Spring/Summer. Gonna put it an on a Taramps 3000 2 ohm. Should definitely be gettin rowdy.
0 AWG is a good choice. Unfortunately oxygen shielded wire is more expensive but takes a beating. For $50.. I'm upgrading my "Big 3" to 0 AWG. A single 8 AWG heats up on bass drops on a system like what we have.
OFC bud OFC and 8 gauge what you trying to burn your car down or what?? Never ever less than 4 gauge 8 gauge for your subs!! PPL BE CAREFUL WHEN YOUR DEALING WITH 12, 14 V SYSTEMS DO RESEARCH CAN NOT JUST USE WHATS LAYING AROUND!! I DID IT BACK IN THE DAY 20 YRS AGO AND GUARANTEED TO FRY YOUR WIRES!!! 4 GAUDGE MINIMUM ALSO CCA IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD COMPARED TO OFC BETTER TO HAVE 0 GAUGE CCA CHEAP THAN 8 OR EVEN 4 GAUGE OFC.... THICKER THE BETTER TO LITTLE YOU WILL BE BURNING SHIT UP
@@PeterFeltersnatch852 I know how David Bird's waiter felt when he made a simple mistake on his tab. I was referring to oxygen shielded copper wire. I apologize for saying osc because I did work with telecommunications equipment in the past and I've worked with various types and gauges of wire.
Dude you bought sky high cca, you absolutely should have gotten ofc, especially since you are using it as RUclips content.. that wire is a mistske, go RUclips cca vs ofc and you'll understand.. cca is for budget, but I promise you won't get near as good of voltage as u would with ofc pure copper.. cca is aluminum wire tinned with copper.. so basically that cca is equal to using 4ga ofc wire, actually I'd rather run 4ga ofc than that junk cca, but u will learn. I understand your a beginner, but when people leave u comments that says to buy ofc u should listen
I notice you're in the comment section a bunch critiquing/ bashing guys set ups while always saying what u have for your system (which tends to change weekly...) I checked your channel couldn't find any uploads from you tho. Give me a link to your setup (ig. RUclips, Facebook, etc), I'd love to see what a PRO like you has to offer.
Yes doing this build in steps. Maybe the voltage won’t be quite as good but the cca 0 gauge will be safer than what I have now and definitely good enough for my needs at the moment. The point of this build isn’t to make a 150db+ competition system but to be a fun project and put smiles on people faces. Appreciate your support
i would of gone with welding cable compare to cca. steve meade did a video weeks ago regarding this and on his video the amp lost 300w using cca compare to ofc. he asked a valid question, would you throw 300w away, you lost 300w with 15ft of cca wire. building steps is ok but build it the right way so the people who are new to the game arent confused by something so simple. whats next youre gonna put a duralast battery in the back because agm is too expensive then have it blow up inside the car. c'mon bro you got subscribers following your footstep dont do them dirty like that
@@rowboyto156 I know i saw that video and I made that mistake now i gotta rewire everything in my car. Didnt know there was a diffrence i thought wire was all the same. gonna cost some money to redo my big 3 and run the power to my amps.
Hey man I know you said you were thinking about upgrading to the scar mm or the sound cube!!! Why not try out the Wolfram audio C2400 .1?????? From all the reviews it seems like a killer amplifier!!! Nothing but good things I'm hearing about Wolfram audio!!!!
I got a Wolfram 4500 and the thing is quite underrated IT'S A BEAST I'm on this page trying to review some subs I can afford that will handle the power
if you want to push 2000 watts you will need to run another battery preferably an AGM battery because of the current draws. you will have to get 2 AGM batteries, one for the engine and one for the system, 0 gauge wires, and big 3. if you run stock the car can shut off while driving or idle, you can blow your alternator from too much draw or you could blow your amp because youre starving it or blow the sub because the amp sent a clipped signal when it was starve for power. hope this helps
Rowboyto Thank you sm this helped a lot. Now ik that I can’t be pushing 2000w Bc I’m not spending 400$ on two new batteries but I’ll find something else.
@@ParkerTheBasshead hey man I know that you say it's 30 mm I'm not questioning that part I am questioning rather if it is 30 mm and one direction or is that in both directions??? Some subwoofers can ReachOut 30 mm but they do not go in the opposite direction 30mm and then again some do that was the question is that in both directions or only one direction????
@@ParkerTheBasshead hey if it's only in one direction that's not as good as other subwoofers that will go 30 mm and go 30 mm in both directions that means it will reach out 30 mm and also return to pump air out of your ported box 30 mm so a big part of 30 mm out in one direction is great but it may not return that same 30mm
Hey bro u said u wanna upgrade ur amp? I would try the power accoustic bamf 5000 series. The one with 5- 40 amp fuse. It makes at least 2000rms and it doesn't need as much power because it's a digital and I believe. They're cheap.
@@juliomendoza2013 A v12 1000? He needs something a bit bigger. I've had those 1000s and they are good for a 1000-1200 rms sub. It wouldn't have enough power for that destroyer sub.
I've been asked quite a few times about the comparison of this model against the Audiopipe BD412, it may offer a nice video for you if you choose to do so.
You need a better box. Using the same one for all subwoofers is useless. But I will give it to you, that box seems like it will do okay with any subwoofer. But it won't make any of them sound as good as they can sound.
For the channel it makes more sense to have a single sub system since I have to pay for everything I get. But if it wasn’t for that I would totally get two subs.
Newer subs travel twice as far as they did ten years ago add better enclosure design and cheap power one sub can put in work. Granted there's no replacement for displacement and two would be way better .
@@2013HotNewMusic oh come on now, we need to be okay with mistakes like this. It's the big ones that need to be made fun of...😄😃🤣😂😃 Like crashing your car on a empty road cus your on the phone, yeah rip them a new one. Pears - pairs , I think I'll be ok in my life with that one😉

Give that thing some more power, better box spec and tune and i think it’ll be loud AF! looks like it’s doing good tho right now, just think it’s got a lot more potential
Btw bro I’m not hating AT ALL. Just what I felt like was good advice. You look like you genuinely love bass bro, keep on keeping on. I watch your videos whenever I get the time man. Bass on!
Appreciate you man! Got a new amp and ran all new wire. Video will be uploaded as soon as I have time to edit it. I may build a box this summer if I have time
Cut the inside port wall out of it and screw a board over the port opening to make it a sealed box. Than get a 4 or 6 inch diameter aeroport or pvc pipe and cut it to length to make it 31hz, it will sound better.
@Parker Dacchille how accurate is ohms law equation for tuning amplifiers? Ohms law is power times ohms and square root that equals voltage output at speaker terminals is close to what that amp should put out for that subwoofer. Ok so I have a Rockville rxd-m3 amp which is true rms at 1000 watts at 1 ohm so I took ohms law and got 31.62 volts at speaker terminals for 1000 watts power output to subwoofer and I'm just wondering how accurate that law is I used a 40 hz test tone
The skar rp2000 would be a good option! Especially for 200$ I think it is
Rp china, budget amps suck. And you will realize that once you own a good Korean amp like my deaf bonce 4k..
I actually had a rp2k for 2 months and returned it for a skv2.2500, now I have deaf bonce 4k and realize skar is budget friendly but not as good quality at all.. there skv2 line is a Korean board but still built in China
@@tankdog03ify never tried dead bounce so i can't really say much lol but I own the skar rp800 as well as the 1500 and there nothing but hard working amps!
Just purchased a RP-2000 from a buddy yesterday! Should be hooked up tomorrow
Absolutely agree skar rp amps are crap almost bought one myself and had owners of audio shops tell me nothing but bad..its not clean power it's just power..I would look into upgrading your electrical system first...need power to make power..
Wolfram has their ag-12 on preorder for $189 and free shipping
Hook up on one for a future testing
I really want to try one out! Will try to do that ones they are actually out
I want the ag-12s but I'm too impatient. Can't wait 1/4 year for it to get here.
I like the high wide surrounding.
Listen Parker I'm about to run 8-Rockville 12d1s powered by 8-Taramp MD 8000.1s in my 1984 Oldsmobile delta88 real soon. ut I've been seeing a lot
of bashing on those subs on social media.
Did You have any Heat issues with this sub when playing it after 15mins at a time? Been thinking about buying this sub. I cant decide between These 3 Subs.
1) This Rockville Destroyer
2) Skar Vfx
3) SQ HDX3
I have a NVX 5400watt/2700watt rms Amp. So ima be buying 2 12s. What do you think is better between those 3 Subs? I want something that wont have heat issues & need them to be Reliable as possible. I Want YOUR Opinion bro. Plz be honest an just tell me what You'd go with.
In your honest opinion would you purchase 4 to replace 4 existing Rockville Subs. 12 cube enclosure with 10in Aero port turned at 38. Or use the money for a different sub at a close caliber
I’d probably get the American Bass HDs. You can find them close to the same price and they are proven to be good subs where as this Rockville has barely been tested by anyone
@@ParkerTheBasshead 10-4 my friend. I trust your opinion. I was kind of leaning the same direction on that sub being so new and to what we're going to put them through , guess I just needed to hear it said out loud
Aj Sportsman yeah man! Let me know what you end up getting
id run these 4 since its that new and make videos about it but id tune the port at 32-34
Just curious to how this Destroyer has held up over past months. Really considering putting 1 on a Taramps Smart 3 amp. All input is helpful
I have that setup with a 15inch destroyer at 2ohms with a 3000 taramp .
I have it hooked up at 4ohms and the bass is still load yet extremely clear ....of course ... get the right box .
I have my box at 34 ... and the speaker I believe is 33
Would you please do a video on comparing your dB meter with the phone app called "Decibel X" to see how accurate it is compared to your actual SPL meter. I bet viewers would like to know because we don't want to buy an SPL meter just to test our one system ($199-$500)
Hey Brandon, have you ever considered the Epicenter by Audio Control? They have an in dash unit that displays voltage or SPL. I've read different reports, some say the meter isn't very accurate, others say it's very accurate. Plus, the epicenter generates some awesome tones. If u like bass.
Wow the destroyer seems to be next to get killed on RUclips by people I'm hoping you can do another video as well on it someday just to see your views on it as time goes by.
Haha yeah I saw EXOs video. Hope he makes one.
Mine has done really well but I’ve only had it on a 2k amp so after box rise it isn’t seeing 2k. And for $260 there are definitely other subs I could have gotten that would probably be better
@@ParkerTheBasshead Yeah he can burn it haa but yeah that's still good in my book that it's handling your 2k.
nice to see a person bump their system without stupid complaining neighbors
I see you broke it in. Nice.
Im thinking about getting one of these, how is it holding up right now? Any issues? Thank you
what about the wolfram c2400 amp. it has a clip light too or the brutal sounds bs2.1
Good channel.... keep it up
Appreciate it! New videos coming soon
Size of wire doesn't mean a whole lot if you don't have the "big 3 or big 4 done"
Ofc 4Gauge is plenty for a ap1500
Just means your box is wack to have that much movement on MAYBE 1000 1200W
Takes electrical to make power
So how did this compare to the other budget subs u tested? I'm talking as far as sq and spl.
Get a wolfram c 2400. To run this sub
Found a good deal on a RP-2000 but once the Wolframs are actually available I might pick one up
Another good cheap amp is the Rockville db16 dynoes out at over 2k @2 ohms, the phenoms are stable to 1ohm. I grabbed a ppi ice7000.1 cause it's .5 ohm stable and dynoes out at 3800 rms. I will be starting my new build very soon, can't wait. No one has reviewed the American bass shallow subs yet so I will ( 2 es1244's on about 2800rms) , hope it slams cause there isn't room in my new truck for my xfl
Or get a. Orion 2500.1dz put it to the test . to see of it really handles power
Do you happen to have 2 sundown sa-12’s?
@@ParkerTheBasshead or just get dual Rockville destroyers on dual RP-2000's and really kill it also upgrade the alt & battery
That thing slams!
Is there any chance you could review the mofo 12 or 15 ?
That would be cool to see.
@@PeterFeltersnatch852 I agree there junk, but you probably blew them because u was clipping them
@@tankdog03ify definitely right. Hifonics are known for supplying dirty power.
I am not a fan of Power Acoustik but I do plan to get a MOFO and a BAMF to review and compare them
Parker Dacchille ok, thanks
Seal the box and face it towards your front winshield n you'll get that mirror comin off bud
sealed enclosures are not as loud as ported subs???
Maybe with some shitty kicker comps
What's up Parker? Cool video! What did you do with your K9 d4 10"?
I have it in my Subaru. Probably not looking to sell it unless you’re in the area. Shipping on it is quite expensive haha
@@ParkerTheBasshead yeah, this is your bud in Gibsonville, I have the d6 10 in dual 2 ohm in a q bomb vented box. Running it on a small 450 watt amp and I feel like it can do more with a better amp cause I'm running it on 4 ohms bridged. Should I have gotten the 4 ohm dvc so I can run at 1 ohm mono? Don't know if I have the crossover set at the right frequency either. Not real sure about the adjustments on it to get the lowest bass response. Love the sub though but am really contemplating on the d9 or the destroyer.
Mike Cuev oh ok cool I remember now. And a DVC 4 ohm can be wired down to 2 ohms and a DVC 2 ohm can be wired down to 1 ohm. Some amps aren’t stable at 1 ohm however. And when a 2 channel is bridged it often isn’t only stable at 4 ohms and not 2 ohms.
If you wanted to make the drive I’d sell you the Rockville. Follow me on Instagram @parkerdacch and shoot me a message. Easier to talk there than on here
Ya I got the 15 inch and dam it slaps
I bet the 15 is insane!
What have you got pushing that thing?
4000watt Rockville amp right now but about to buy the 6000 watt amp in a couple weeks
@@kevinpiche9437 Awesome. how's that Rockville amp treating you?
How long did this Rockville destroyer last you?
It could be just me but the American Bass sounded a little cleaner
This one rattles the car a little more and so the camera picks that up more than you would in person. That being said the American Bass is incredible and I bet the HD would out due this Rockville
My question to you buddy are these subs good for a half chambered sealed box?
Sounds fine til it goes up in smoke like all of their other products.
Fantastic. One day I will have Earth shattering bass. One day. 600 for an alt though 🥺
I just subscribe to this page and I have never liked or subscribed to any page before. But yo Parker my man I like what you doing keep it up, and could you recommend any subwoofer up to $350 that will handle a Wolfram 4500 or anybody out there
Well i am flattered! It will be hard to find something that can continuously handle the 4500 for $350. However, so long as you don’t go full tilt 24/7 you should be able to find some decent subs. Look up Fi Audio. Also EM Audio. I think they make a 3k sub around that price
@@ParkerTheBasshead I'm only going to be running 4 ohms so about 1300 RMS watts is all I'll be doing do you think 4 Rockville destroyers will work or are the Audiopipe or American bass more highly recommended right now I'm running 4 Champion series Pro and they don't come close!!!! I'm just looking for a good clean solid bass and when I bought that app I got more than I was bargaining for now I need subs that a handle it
Michael Johnson are you running one sub on the 4500 or multiples?
@@ParkerTheBasshead 4 Pioneer Champion series pros at 4 Ohms
@@ParkerTheBasshead that's what's hooked up right now and I'm looking to upgrade. Hey man you reply faster than the guy from Wolfram audio I think that's upstanding a quality I don't know how you do it
The Rockville phenom 1500.1 does rated @1ohm. I have it on my 15s
Parker, do you think this sub can truly handle 2000 rms?
I just came across these subs on Amazon like an hour ago. I've since then been looking into em and I gotta say, they definitely seem like some monsters for the price tag. I was an Audiopipe guy forever BD3's then a single BD4 and that mf hit hard... This sub is only $80 more than a single BD4 15 and will handle 600 more watts. I also like how fat that lip is. These mfs are extra beefy 💪🏻💪🏻.. I'm definitely lookin forward to gettin one of these houndin in the trunk of my Lucerne this Spring/Summer. Gonna put it an on a Taramps 3000 2 ohm. Should definitely be gettin rowdy.
Did u get one? If so how does it sound?
@@trickedoutequinox3265 Nawh I ended up going with more of a budget sub.
@@bmcdamayne which one?
I got a couple Harmony Audio HA-C124’s
@@bmcdamayne are those the carbon ones that can handle 1400 RMS..I'm looking at those too they look CLEAN! $200 bucks on Amazon for 15"
0 AWG is a good choice. Unfortunately oxygen shielded wire is more expensive but takes a beating. For $50.. I'm upgrading my "Big 3" to 0 AWG.
A single 8 AWG heats up on bass drops on a system like what we have.
OFC bud OFC and 8 gauge what you trying to burn your car down or what?? Never ever less than 4 gauge 8 gauge for your subs!! PPL BE CAREFUL WHEN YOUR DEALING WITH 12, 14 V SYSTEMS DO RESEARCH CAN NOT JUST USE WHATS LAYING AROUND!! I DID IT BACK IN THE DAY 20 YRS AGO AND GUARANTEED TO FRY YOUR WIRES!!! 4 GAUDGE MINIMUM ALSO CCA IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD COMPARED TO OFC BETTER TO HAVE 0 GAUGE CCA CHEAP THAN 8 OR EVEN 4 GAUGE OFC.... THICKER THE BETTER TO LITTLE YOU WILL BE BURNING SHIT UP
@@PeterFeltersnatch852 I would run 4ga ofc over 1/0 cca everyday of the week.. cca is garbage, and only fools buy it by mistake..
@@PeterFeltersnatch852 I know how David Bird's waiter felt when he made a simple mistake on his tab.
I was referring to oxygen shielded copper wire. I apologize for saying osc because I did work with telecommunications equipment in the past and I've worked with various types and gauges of wire.
@@PeterFeltersnatch852 just watch my latest videos.
@@tankdog03ify good for you buddy..... no one ASKED YOU for your OPINION...... Nope no one asked you
What is the square footage of the box your using?
I'm gonna rock the Rockville subs until I can't get them anymore
Wow that subwoofer gotten so loud that your Mic’s compression kicked in and muted the audio
Dude you bought sky high cca, you absolutely should have gotten ofc, especially since you are using it as RUclips content.. that wire is a mistske, go RUclips cca vs ofc and you'll understand.. cca is for budget, but I promise you won't get near as good of voltage as u would with ofc pure copper.. cca is aluminum wire tinned with copper.. so basically that cca is equal to using 4ga ofc wire, actually I'd rather run 4ga ofc than that junk cca, but u will learn. I understand your a beginner, but when people leave u comments that says to buy ofc u should listen
I notice you're in the comment section a bunch critiquing/ bashing guys set ups while always saying what u have for your system (which tends to change weekly...)
I checked your channel couldn't find any uploads from you tho. Give me a link to your setup (ig. RUclips, Facebook, etc), I'd love to see what a PRO like you has to offer.
@@2013HotNewMusic Well Said Davis, you can tell by the video Parker is going to be doing a lot more work on this build.
Yes doing this build in steps. Maybe the voltage won’t be quite as good but the cca 0 gauge will be safer than what I have now and definitely good enough for my needs at the moment. The point of this build isn’t to make a 150db+ competition system but to be a fun project and put smiles on people faces.
Appreciate your support
i would of gone with welding cable compare to cca. steve meade did a video weeks ago regarding this and on his video the amp lost 300w using cca compare to ofc. he asked a valid question, would you throw 300w away, you lost 300w with 15ft of cca wire.
building steps is ok but build it the right way so the people who are new to the game arent confused by something so simple. whats next youre gonna put a duralast battery in the back because agm is too expensive then have it blow up inside the car. c'mon bro you got subscribers following your footstep dont do them dirty like that
@@rowboyto156 I know i saw that video and I made that mistake now i gotta rewire everything in my car. Didnt know there was a diffrence i thought wire was all the same. gonna cost some money to redo my big 3 and run the power to my amps.
I think it would be cool if you had a meter so we can see how loud they get. I liked and subbed to help along the way.
I plan to get one. Just a little expensive at the moment.
@@ParkerTheBasshead bro, gp car audio sells one at $224
website: gpcaraudio.com/spl-lab-mini-bass-meter/
Whew, that 30 mm of Xmax is getting up there close to Sundown. That Rockville has to be getting lowwwww.
whats the song that played in the beginning?
SIIIIICK!!!
Hey man I know you said you were thinking about upgrading to the scar mm or the sound cube!!! Why not try out the Wolfram audio C2400 .1?????? From all the reviews it seems like a killer amplifier!!! Nothing but good things I'm hearing about Wolfram audio!!!!
I would get it buts it’s on back order. May get one once it’s actually available.
I got a Wolfram 4500 and the thing is quite underrated IT'S A BEAST I'm on this page trying to review some subs I can afford that will handle the power
Would this sub require an aftermarket battery or can I just use my stick battery I don’t want my headlights dimming.
if you want to push 2000 watts you will need to run another battery preferably an AGM battery because of the current draws. you will have to get 2 AGM batteries, one for the engine and one for the system, 0 gauge wires, and big 3.
if you run stock the car can shut off while driving or idle, you can blow your alternator from too much draw or you could blow your amp because youre starving it or blow the sub because the amp sent a clipped signal when it was starve for power. hope this helps
Rowboyto Thank you sm this helped a lot. Now ik that I can’t be pushing 2000w Bc I’m not spending 400$ on two new batteries but I’ll find something else.
Debating if I should get these or the scar Vxf need help
Wolfram c2400.1 has a clipping light also.
I’ll look into it!
Just sucks you have to wait 1/4 year to get anything from wolfram.
Q&A time just how much do you know about this subwoofer is the x-max just one way 30 mm???????
Yes xmax is 30mm according to Rockville
@@ParkerTheBasshead hey man I know that you say it's 30 mm I'm not questioning that part I am questioning rather if it is 30 mm and one direction or is that in both directions??? Some subwoofers can ReachOut 30 mm but they do not go in the opposite direction 30mm and then again some do that was the question is that in both directions or only one direction????
@@ParkerTheBasshead hey if it's only in one direction that's not as good as other subwoofers that will go 30 mm and go 30 mm in both directions that means it will reach out 30 mm and also return to pump air out of your ported box 30 mm so a big part of 30 mm out in one direction is great but it may not return that same 30mm
JD DD shoot! I misunderstood you first comment. It will go 30mm in and 30mm out so total xmax would be 60
Is that the box that comes with the destroyer?
Hey bro u said u wanna upgrade ur amp? I would try the power accoustic bamf 5000 series. The one with 5- 40 amp fuse. It makes at least 2000rms and it doesn't need as much power because it's a digital and I believe. They're cheap.
Thanks will look into it!
Or just get a v12 apline
@@juliomendoza2013
A v12 1000? He needs something a bit bigger. I've had those 1000s and they are good for a 1000-1200 rms sub. It wouldn't have enough power for that destroyer sub.
Dope...
Use the rockville rxd m5 competition amp with this sub. Im getting them soon.
Great vid man you gonna do an update with the rp 2k on her?
Sure will!!
Sounds great on my Sony headphones lol
Did you watch that video link i sent for the 2 vxf 12s?
Hey Parker so what's your final opinion on the destroyer
Jeremy Smith I honestly really liked it for the price. Might get several for my build so I can really test them out
Can the Rockville destroyer subwoofer break a window
Haha I doubt it
If you throw it
I've been asked quite a few times about the comparison of this model against the Audiopipe BD412, it may offer a nice video for you if you choose to do so.
You need a better box. Using the same one for all subwoofers is useless. But I will give it to you, that box seems like it will do okay with any subwoofer. But it won't make any of them sound as good as they can sound.
I'm thinking about building a wall with 4 of these in my truck.
Do the EVL skar 12 or the Eatherquake dbi series it has 88 30mm of peak to peak linear excursion thats damn near 4" of p-p xmax
I’ll look into them!
How about some SPL numbers before and after? It just sitting here making noise is one thing but give us an apples to apples comparison.
I plan to buy a meter at some point but decent ones aren’t cheap. Send me a meter and I’ll definitely use it lol
@@ParkerTheBasshead I bought the SPL Lab unit and so far its been pretty good to me. Very close to Termlab readings.
slojoegt Stang ok cool I’ve looked at that unit. I’ll try to pick something up before too long
@@ParkerTheBasshead Can t wait to see the results.
Looks like it hits pretty good what happened to running speakers and pears LOL I'm not being a troll just curious good job low great video brother
For the channel it makes more sense to have a single sub system since I have to pay for everything I get. But if it wasn’t for that I would totally get two subs.
Newer subs travel twice as far as they did ten years ago add better enclosure design and cheap power one sub can put in work. Granted there's no replacement for displacement and two would be way better .
