TO ADDRESS EVERYONE'S COMMENTS: I put the sub in a new box. Watch that video here: ruclips.net/video/GvLCh51OERI/видео.html I know the box that I had was not ideal. I made it for free out of wood I already had at home and I made it to fit behind my back seat when I still had it. You can watch that video here: ruclips.net/video/gYaxoIoFk1U/видео.html THE AMP IS UNDERNEATH THE PLATFORM THAT THE SUB SITS ON
I am pretty sure my head exploded when I seen that poly-fil box and a 1 inch toilet paper roll port.. A better box is desperately needed, Skar products are very good if they are in the right enclosures. The Skar amps are beasts!
I was born in the 70’s and was there in the 80’s when boom was introduced. When EVERYBODY was running 6”x9”s in school I moved to a small country town with my Honda CRX with the Punch 45 and RF 15” sub and blew everyone’s mind in this this small town NOBODY had subs yet still using radio shack booster/equalizers and 6”x9”s so my small system was the “Talk”. I upgrade selling my punch 45 and 15” to another student so then there were two systems. I got the Punch 150 and RF 18” in the CRX and REALLY blew minds and other guys away. You gotta remember this was the 80’s so it was the start of what we know now as car audio or “Boom” used as term back then. I went thru so many systems switching to Kicker 15” Subs and Hifonics amps Cyclops (100x1) was a beast of a system compared to RF stuff I started with. Then came the “ORION” Red 225 HCCA ( the 50 watt Game Changer) on a pair of Kicker 15” I thought would blow the hatch off the CRX! I now drive a new Civic Turbo and have it loaded with Skar RP 800 amp and Skar (1) DDX 10” Dv2 in factory ported enclosure that is incredible for one small sub! The 80’s were the “Best of Times” and just so cool I was blessed enough to live to see it all unfold!#CarAudio❤️#🔊
@@bondalero0074Thanks for the reply, had 2 RF hx2’s a long time ago and loved the deep rich bass I got from them and they sounded great on any type of music, wish I still had them.
@@bondalero0074 Your opinion is highly considered because you know the sound quality and efficiency of those old school subwoofers and I’m fortunate to have experienced the good old days of car audio. So how does the DDX sound on rock/heavy metal, particularly the double bass of the kick drum, does it have good transient response or does it get fatigued. If it’s close to those RFP Hx2’s or the kicker you’ve owned in sound quality then I’m definitely going with the DDX, just wish they made them like they use to and you knew what you were getting right out of the box. Now they have so many brands it’s difficult to choose unless you hear them personally and I do not have that privilege. Thanks again bro for the response.
Replaced a pair of 10+ year old roadmaster 10" 3 way bass box...box was too small...10s hit hard and low..i bet a box built for these would slam harder
Yes as everyone says please change the box the offer one for a decent price but its really good or get a bigger box of the same caliber it needs to be between 1 cubic foot to 1.5 it will be crazy
Each coil measures 2 ohms. You wired the coils in series which doubles the impedance so you were running this sub at 4 ohms. They hit harder at lower impedance.
Is a 4 ohm sub if you do red to black terminals you make it 8ohm It can protect your amp to make it sound better do red to red black to black it make it from 4 ohm to 2 ohm
I would have waited til I got a bigger box but sounds good so far..those subs need 1.5 to 2.5 cubes of air to move the cone ..to produce low bass notes…
I have the SDR 2 12s wired to 2 ohms and I beat the shit out of them with a 2000 watt Skar amp that should be putting out around 1600 watts RMS. The subs are rated for 600 RMS each and they are still taking every bit of it.
I got my brother the 12 inch IX and she sounds good. Kinda wanna get a 10 inch tho😬 but try making a new box for that sub man then it will really pound....what amp is it on to?
you guys need to learn how subwoofer loading works, having it fire up like that is absolutely horrible for any kind of performance. You need to fire it backwards next to a corner in order for it to produce any kind of proper bass.
That speaker has so much more potential if you had it and a better ported box and wire down to 1 ohm it would really bring it to life but sometimes you got to do what you got to do. Long as you're happy that's all that matters🔊😁
Thanks that box was made to fit behind my back seat when I still had it so it had to be tiny. Also it was made for free with stuff I already had in my garage. I got a new box for it ruclips.net/video/GvLCh51OERI/видео.html
Man you wired it in series to 4ohm, if you wire it in parallel to 1ohm it would hit alot harder. You go positive to positive and negative to negative on the voice coils. And then take a positive and negative and wire to the amp, doesn't matter which one. Not sure if you knew that or not but It'll make that sub hit alot harder on the amp you have it on.
@@seancanoy like I said I was just pointing that out didn't kow if you knew or not. Glad you got her banging again👌 just got two skar ix12s hooked up in my truck
If your amp can handle 1 ohm then I suggest you re wire the sub to that instead of 4 ohm. Will be a lot louder. Or should have gotten a dual 4 ohm sub and wires to 2 ohm if the amp can only handle that low.
This video was hard to watch.. Why are you doing a subwoofer test video with a tiny cheap looking box? Give that subwoofer some breathing room, and a nice port tuned to 35-40hz and you'll be even more pleased, and then you can truly conclude whether or not it's a good Amazon choice product.
I am gonna get 4 (VD-8 D4 8 inch) Skar Audio subwoofers for my boom system With 4 original 8 inch enclosures made by skar and the total cost of the 4 eight inch subwoofers and the 4 skar boxes in all its $526.92
If you're looking for a 10, check out Skar's EVL series. The 10" is rated 1000 rms watts for $200. I'm a tuned enclosure they hit hard! Skar Audio lists not only specification of the sub, but recommended box info too. Their amps are legit too.
@@kone.linngus3651 yeah I would live the evl is just a little out of my price range, and im the sdr's have nice package deals where they throw in the am land wiring. Just debating which one, dual 10s, one 12' or of the hit as hard as everyone says I would get one 10, and than I could always add another 10 down the road. What do you think?
Box isn't big enough. Need a bigger sealed or even a ported. My son runs the 8inch version of this sub in his Ext Cab Ford Ranger and it sounds great. What amp are you using?
Actually, I was wrong. A 4ohm setup will use more power and will produce a less loud but higher quality bass sound. On the other hand, a 2ohm setup will use less power and produce a louder but less clean sound. I think I’ll do a video on this. Hope it helps!
2ohm pulls more power from your amp and produces louder, less clear bass. 4ohm pulls less power from your amp and produces less loud, better sounding bass
@seancanoy yes sir, I did see the new box video and I still say, get the skar slot port box with the carpeting.. not the coated one and you will be very happy with what you have. I think they are like $110
The installation material needs to be excluded from the subwoofer box. You will sufficate the Skar, cause it to overheat, and drastically shorten the life of the Skar. And the most important thing....is to get a bigger box. It's obvious your trying to conserve space and I feel you on that, but Skars were made to "Boom"! Like the vidoe, too!
@@seancanoy thanks I’m trying to hook mine up right now and I’m also using 16 gauge I’m just trying to figure out why it cuts out after a while I’m not sure if I need to make a longer amount of cable for it right now since I’m just testing it the length of the amp to the sub isn’t even longer than a foot
@@hairomata6805 I would use a little more wire than you need just in case you want to move it around in the future. The cutting out issue could be from a loose connection?
i would have got the DDX series they have a big ass motor and the copper coil is little bigger then a standard 2.5" coils. buy them used but they are worth the money. i got an evl-12 D2, ZVX 8" D2 and a DDX 10 D2 I got the DDX i purchased with coil rub. i heated up the frame under the surround then reset the coil with in 10 mins of opening the shipping box. after i took it in my house i tripped over my cat and broke the moter in 1/2 i was so pissed. i have a drop in cone if anyone needs it
That polyfill probably killed that sub... but anyhow pull that shit out and tell me what you think about the Skar? There's no audio shops here small town and I've been out of the know for a few years. Trying to find a cheap solid banger for the price to throw in my little shitbox Ranger so I can tolerate driving a ranger. Clean truck but it needs to be lowered with some bass, one owner truck 😂
Good sub, I’m really surprised with the sound it puts out for the price. I got a new box since this video and now it sounds even better. Definitely recommend ruclips.net/video/H4Il7rHMd7Y/видео.html
One janky box....to small for a port besides That the tiny port must have chuffed terribly. If skar watched this video they probably was like oh no great our sub in a bird house with a hacked up shit paper tube for a port. I tossed an ix10 I had kicking around in a 1.25cf box with two 2" ports and it chuffed awful as soon as the cone started to move some so that must have sounded like a vacuum cleaner. I was board the other day For fun I dug it out and built an mdf box to exact skar recommendations 1.25cf, 13.5 in2 port area and tuned to 36htz and I performs beautifully (ended up 35.4htz but close enough) I carefully ran it on my cab45 wired to 2ohm and it would still buzz my rear view some in a grand caravan no less. I didn't feel like modeling it in Winisd so i didn't bother deviating from skars box specs because yeah more enclosure volume and port area may increase lows and output in certain frequencies but power handling over excursion would likely come into play. Skar knows what will deliver the best overall performance, it doesn't take much to smoke 2" coil in a 200w sub....so need to pay attention to box design for max reliability. It did ok in a .75cf sealed box also when it was the baby system in my old truck. But that box holy smokes what a fail.... The old sub probably killed itself on purpose just to get out of that mess.
@@seancanoy lol I bet.. I've been looking at some vids about that subwoofer and your vid popped up lol I'm thinking about getting one. One of these days 😂😂
I’m looking at adding a subwoofer and not sure how to pick one since my amp is 2 channel 700 watts RMS per channel , I was wanting to know what power rating in a subwoofer to look for in a dual coil that will handle 700 watts rms and if I parallel it that’s 350 watts rms for each coil? My amp is 2ohm optimized so seeking a 4ohm dual coil subwoofer. Is that what I am needing to seek and do and it will give me the full 700 watts RMS to the subwoofer once is it paralleling it from 4ohm to 2ohm?

Take the polyfil out of the ported box
That box was a joke.. here's the new box: ruclips.net/video/GvLCh51OERI/видео.html
Box isn't big enough. Need a bigger sealed or even a ported. My son runs the 8inch version of this sub in his Ext Cab Ford Ranger and it sounds great. What amp are you using?
Yeah it’s in a new box now
Best to run this sub on 4,2 or 1 ohm? I'm using a cheapie 1100watt boss a/b class monoblock amp rather 2 or 4ohm. Any advice? 🙏
4ohm is most common and won’t use as much power from your amp. I run 4ohm and it sounds really good.
Actually, I was wrong. A 4ohm setup will use more power and will produce a less loud but higher quality bass sound. On the other hand, a 2ohm setup will use less power and produce a louder but less clean sound. I think I’ll do a video on this. Hope it helps!
How many ohms are you using?
I wired it for 4 ohms
Does it sounds better running it on 4ohm rather 2ohms?
What’s the point of the fluff in the box?
The poly fil slows down the sound waves in the box making it sound like the box is bigger. Basically makes the bass a bit deeper
What’s the difference between 2 ohm and 4 ohm
2ohm pulls more power from your amp and produces louder, less clear bass. 4ohm pulls less power from your amp and produces less loud, better sounding bass
Wait till it breaks in I got 2 shallows with a 1200 watt and a custom box with the right specs and im clocking out at 128-132db

Nah. You’ll need a bigger amp. IX series don’t need alot of power to push them even a 300 watt amp can kick them good enough

Why wire 4 ohm?
It produces a cleaner sound but not as loud. Draws more power from your amp. It’s really personal preference I’m just used to 4ohm🤙

@@seancanoy lol I bet.. I've been looking at some vids about that subwoofer and your vid popped up lol I'm thinking about getting one. One of these days 😂😂
Definitely recommend. I got a cheap box since this video and it sounds amazing.

Ok good deal
We can spend 10k on parts and flip out when we get a 1 cent sticker for free
It’s the little things that count😂🙌
Awesome mask ? Your by yourself!
This video was 3 years ago 😂
Is that fuckin polyfil in a ported box???
Does that grind ur gears
$58?
It’s around 40-50
i’m sorry man you wearing a mask outside in the start by yourself was just to funny.
That was the rule on campus
your cool bro
This is sarcasm
I'm no rocket scientist but I think your box is a little small
You are absolutely right. I got a new one since this video!
Should’ve broken it in first
Maybe I’ll do an update
I HEAR PORT NOISE THERE :/ BUILD A BIGGER BOX GUYS
If you watched the vids you’d know I built it to go behind my back seat when it was still in so it had to be small.

These subs need to be broke in before you throw dumb power to it
Lmao is it worth it..yes one of the top brands are worth it..
Good thing you watched the video
Why do you have so much cotton dude you’ll burn something up that’s stupid it happend to my friend
It’s not cotton dude it’s poly-fil
You need a amp
I have an amp
Why do you have a mask on outside by yourself?
🤦🤦I don’t get why people care so much. It was a requirement on campus
Change the box
Check out part 2!!
That box needs to go.
It’s gone ruclips.net/video/GvLCh51OERI/видео.html
You get what you pay for 🤷🏿
Worth the money if you’re looking for a little extra bump
Walmart audio boss skar
Will you shave your head for 1000 subscribers??
Do you really want me to?
@@seancanoy THAT WOULD BE EPICCCC
Haha well we have to reach 1,000 first!
@@seancanoy will you make an announcement??
Maybe when I get a little closer!
You need a new partner that guy seemed really unenthusiastic about what you were doing
Yeah my roommates don’t support me
old vid hope you don't run that crap in your boxes anymore take all that insulation out
haha I don’t have the subs anymore but never understood the problem people have with poly-fil 😂
I stopped watching when I saw your mask 😂 can’t support
That’s pathetic I’m glad you stopped watching
Why are you wearing a mask by yourself outside??? 🤷♂️🤦♂️🤣🤡🌎
The video is from March 2021 it was the rule on campus
That polyfill is not a good choice I'd remove that shit I've seen it destroy a lot of subs.
I’ve been using it for years no problems
@@seancanoy it also takes up box space making it smaller which is not good either. It's just bad either way you look at it.
It doesn’t really take up space as much as it fills empty space. It’s just to make a cleaner sound
@@BenaresDarkness actually bud, polyfill mimics a larger encloser and therefore produces deeper sounding bass.
@@cheddarballs864 Well you go ahead and destroy your sub with that shit but don't come back crying to me bud
I’m looking at adding a subwoofer and not sure how to pick one since my amp is 2 channel 700 watts RMS per channel , I was wanting to know what power rating in a subwoofer to look for in a dual coil that will handle 700 watts rms and if I parallel it that’s 350 watts rms for each coil? My amp is 2ohm optimized so seeking a 4ohm dual coil subwoofer. Is that what I am needing to seek and do and it will give me the full 700 watts RMS to the subwoofer once is it paralleling it from 4ohm to 2ohm?
