The Faceless Man82 I was thinking of buying the dual 15” evl box and powering it with American bass 120.1. I have a 15” xFl in a qbomb porter box but I want two subs.
I have audio coverage with my insurance company. Steal it and I'll upgrade. 😆 Plus people will hear you riding around , then still wanna steal it, so either way
@@godzilla7391 my best friend had audio coverage as well LOL. They only covered the audio equipment that was attached to the dash of the vehicle anything else they did not cover! So basically they covered his head unit and his dash speakers everything else he lost😡 I would double check my insurance coverage if I was you. I'd hate for you to be paying for something they won't even cover.
I'm running 4 evl 12 's in a ported box. and I can tell you from experience they need a few months of hard playing to break in. But they sound great straight out of the box. Give the speaker some time to break in and your low-frequency SPL will go up a bit.
I have evl 15 and it definitely needs workin time to sound as good as it can. It blew me away how much better it sounded and how much more flex I have after 20 hrs of accumulated play.
did it stink at all during the break in? i got the single 12" evl bundle that skar sells and just hooked it up over the weekend and this thing stinks. its on the amp that came in the bundle the rp1500d. I wouldn't think that amp would be frying the voice coil or anything.
@@Wildcatky_502 EVL's take a long time to break in. You wanna increase the power slowly too. 24 hours of play time is the most common recommendation for break in on them that I've seen.
FS has nothing to do with how low a sub will play, thats just its free air resonance. Everything has a resonant frequency and it will completely change depending on enclosure/tuning and loading of the sub...
The idea of a large dust cap is more surface area for the sub that is why u see some super deep subs in some applications but it has been proven it only uses the surface of the cone basically flat
A dust cap, also aids in cooling. Utilizing a larger diameter cap, also helps with moving more air, in and out of the gap, and through the pole and back plate venting. The cap does more then keeping debris out of the gap, it creates positive and negative air flow... essentially a pump.
I have 2 of these in a box tuned at 32 hz. Running on a Skar RP2000D at 2500rms. I've ran them for hours with no problem hitting 146dbs. SKAR all the way! PS. Box design and volume is critical to your output as well as gains and wiring etc. This guy may wanna double check his setup
I own 2 Fi Audio Xv3 subs being ran on a Sundown SAE 2k and they are beasts!! I beat the hell out of them and they never ever smell. Best I've done on the meter is a 146.4. Which isn't bad from the trunk of a 2011 Honda Accord on a 2k wired @1ohm probably only putting out around 1200 watts give or take after rise. I originally had two Sundown SAs but they would get hot and start stinking. The Fi Xv3s don't even get warm and don't smell at all even at full tilt
@@Maloney-ho6fb I have an XS battery under the hood and a second Northstar battery in the trunk. They are both old as dirt though (6-7 years old) which is why they won’t hold a decent charge and my voltage won’t stay up even though I have a 300 amp alt
I was going to get a sundown but I saw this video and went straight to order this sub heard nothing but good reviews! I’m trying to get back on car audio my first system was 2 12 mtx 7500 then after that I got 2 12 l7 then jl audio 12s. So I’m so happy I got these and what i paid

Good vid! And with just 1 12 inch sub you can only shake so much stuff in your car and once a rear view mirror falls of it will keep falling off, I use gorilla glue epoxy to keep my mirror on but when I upgrade my system I can tell if I got more bass If the mirror falls off:) rock on braH!
Bought an EVL 15 . Definitely getting a ZVX . EVL has potential but would definitely need a custom box. Might as well buy the ZVX if you get a box. 2 EVLs = 1 ZVX .
Bro i want one so bad someone was selling one near me for 200 but I couldn’t get to it in time:/ but yeah they do way over rated the more power you feed it the more it puts out crazy!
Sean Patrick you’ve got a super like personalized setup that’s so raw every thing is a different brand and just the way you want it I think that’s fucking raw man! And it’s crazy how much more power that amp can do you might be looking at 3500 w the right voltage !!! I’m running 2 15s in my 14 Sentra lmaooo such a family car I know. But I have a skar EVL in a ported box in my trunk on a sonido 2k and a reconed Memphis mojo on kicker Kx 2400.1. That’s in my back seat in a ported box too. Some soundstream tweeters and kicker 6.5s in the front w skar 6.9s in the rear deck alpine power pack behind the head unit for my mids and highs. I love my setup so much I’ll make a vid soon!
For less money you could do a skar 2000 that does solid 2,400 rms even at 13 volts actually it was doing almost 2400 at 12.6 volts but you will need at least a decent car audio battery in trunk dedicated to sub amp and can Also run a 4 channel amp but put in a relay on power wire coming from stock batt so it can feed power to second battery but can't get power from trunk batt butt the skar 2000 is 229 does well over rated power stable down to 1ohm down side it only is 1 ohm stable n dampening factor is only 200. Better option the PPI black ice 7000D it's stable at .5 ohms and u definitely will need at least a good secondary batt run at least 1 run of ofc ought guage I recommend 2 runs and do not use any of that cca garbage I've seen a 20% difference in out put from same length of cca compared to real ofc pure copper I recommend certified basshead for the SAME OFC COPPER ought guage from a local shop they charged almost 7$ per ft for kicker ofc @ down4sound I paid about 3.50 a ft for pure ofc ought guage then I recommend 2power.ans 2 ought guage for the PPI u will need a 2 to 1 adapt kit tool Maker makes them cause the PPI will draw about 400 amps full tilt at .5 ohms IT DYNOED.at a tad over 3,700 set @ to clipping and Dynamic test showed it's capable of 4+k rms and you can get them new for 249-269 also dampening factor is 500. Plus they are strappable so 2@1 ohm you get about 8krms for about 500 bucks where else can u get that quality for that price a DC 7500 is over 2k$ js
James Lewis personally I dislike rp series skar amps unless it’s the 3 or 4K the skv2 is where it’s at for skar but that ppi that thing is a beast I can vouch for that I saw one one offer up had a clip light nice rcas just an elite amp overall... however I think the true budget king rn is wolfram Amps

I have the skar 15" 1500rms 3000 peak and hits 28hz and hits all the highs but it was hard finding the right box for it to hit all them sounds, best sub I've ever owned by far you can send power through these and not hurt them
So once you got the right box you were able to get highs and lows??? As of now it seems I have only lows lol. But I have a box from Concept Enclosures on the way. 2.3 cubic ft. 4 X 12 Aeroport.

trunkbangking (if I’m not mistaken) better soft parts mean more power handling. A smaller motor may not matter a whole lot when better soft parts are in play
I’ve got two ZVX 18s currently running on around 700 watts. Breaking a 140 easily, but haven’t metered them yet. The motor is *massive af* and very good soft parts.
Motor size doesn't mean anything, actually. It's the efficiency, and how well the motor is designed, and so forth. The carbon in the steel, the ferrite quality, the effective motor force(BL)..the cooling capabilities and so on.
I've had these, with RP series amp to power it, blew both up once, them melted second one with SKv2 amp. Super friendly budget sub, just not for banging like sundown subs can handle
Definitely was doing something very very wrong 🤣🤣🤣 I have the evl 15 and 18 both in custom boxes I’ve had the 15 for years now on a smart 3k and it’s handled it no problem the sa v2 I tried bottomed out on the same power 🤷♂️
And they overheat in about 25 or 30 minutes. I had an XTR 2500 that would do 3.5K on voltage over 14 but they don't have any surface area for cooling. I upgraded to an SKv2 3500.1 which does the same power at the same voltage for twice the money. But it's also twice the size and three times the weight. It doesn't shut down EVER.
@@robertdavidson548 but I've had my zvx's for around 6 months and they never over heat. Stop being paranoid. The subs are gonna heat up. Don't touch them non stop. Those coils are made to handle the heat
I have two evl 15s and I play like the mid 20 Hertz daily mines dont smell and haven't had any problems with them and Im running them on a taramps md 8000.1 in a coustom tuned box no clipping and I beat the hell out of them daily 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
Well at least you got the video of you voiding your warranty. That is why proper break in is important. Not what some "not the people who are engineers " says on youtube.
Hey Parker, I love the videos. I am having a tough time deciding between the Skar EVL 12 and the Deaf Bonce SA272. I know you have reviewed both, but can you tell me which one you like better and why? The Skar has more xmax and a bigger VC, but the DB is similar, but rated higher rms. I need 3 12s so is the DB worth the extra $70 per sub? Thats an additional $210 for me since I need 3. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
I would definitely run with scar from watching Parker‘s videos he doesn’t flat out say it but I don’t think he is a fan at all of scar audio that is just my opinion though I am a huge fan of scar but still love Parker‘s videos even though I don’t think he is a fan of scar at all not just that and all you’re saving over $210 you could buy an extra skirt sub for that price LOL my bed mat scar sub for that price
Another great video keep it up I'm rooting for the American Bass sub but there all pretty good IMO Stay focused and good luck in school homie .When of it you get a chance can you rate some subs that are really efficient with lower RMS ?
I have a Evl 12 d2 and wired to 1 ohm on my rp 1500.1. I need to get a bigger amp. I have not clamped it and not sure exactly how many watts the amp is pushing out. I have not metered it, but I am impressed with skar. I want to get the rp 3500 and get two evl d4. Now, unfortunately my box at the moment is a Qbomb ported. I think I would get better performance on a custom box but don’t have the tools or know how to make one.
@@swiftxb nope and fuckers are always going to smell don't worry about it though it's a little annoying but they will never let you down unless you really really over power on
My evl 12 is dying after 2 years to date suround cracking bad from the texas heat in the trunk of a black car... been beating the crap out of it for 2 years str8 on a skar rp1500...crazy bang for 1 sub though

I have the zvx 12 on a 3000 watt old school crunch ground pounder pro. The amp is a monster. Will do almost 5k at 17 volts but I'm only running 12-14 volts. Would the 15 inch evl sound better that the 12 inch zvx? Since there is more cone area? This zvx is crazy loud. Can balance napkins in my window.
Depends on what you’re looking for. I’d say for the price they are better than Sundown but if you looking for really extreme comp subs then sundowns higher end stuff is insane
@@omarrolle7950 You'll have to keep in mind that there are a lot of different factors when it come to "loudness." Different vehicles, different size/type of boxes, power, freq, etc. The best way to find out is test, test, test. I went through Kicker and Sundown throughout different setup over the years and both of them are great. Both do have pros and cons. Soon I'm going to try Skar for the first time and I'm excited to try something different. But yeah, as I've stated before, it's all depend on factors.

Trust me stick with jl audio it gets a lot of bad rap but from me so far best daily setup I've ever heard were 2 13.5 w7 on a hifonics 2400. I wish Parker could get a single 12 w7 like used or a loaner to see how he likes it but that sub is way too expensive for me.
I love whatever mic you are using, it has very minimal clipping and distortion from the bass unlike everyone else.
I was kinda mad about personal shit!!! But then I seen how happy you were with your system and it made my day, thank you.

trunkbangking (if I’m not mistaken) better soft parts mean more power handling. A smaller motor may not matter a whole lot when better soft parts are in play
I’ve got two ZVX 18s currently running on around 700 watts. Breaking a 140 easily, but haven’t metered them yet. The motor is *massive af* and very good soft parts.
Motor size doesn't mean anything, actually. It's the efficiency, and how well the motor is designed, and so forth. The carbon in the steel, the ferrite quality, the effective motor force(BL)..the cooling capabilities and so on.
Do ct sounds meso series next and then do some of their amps.
Manners man. Say please haha
Whats the box dimensions?
I've had these, with RP series amp to power it, blew both up once, them melted second one with SKv2 amp. Super friendly budget sub, just not for banging like sundown subs can handle
Definitely was doing something very very wrong 🤣🤣🤣 I have the evl 15 and 18 both in custom boxes I’ve had the 15 for years now on a smart 3k and it’s handled it no problem the sa v2 I tried bottomed out on the same power 🤷♂️
The Scar EVL is actually an SQ subwoofer. Still hits really hard though.
Can you explain?
You shouldve got the zvx's bro. There motor is literally over 2 times as big
I'm sure he would have if he wasn't trying all the top rated 200$ range subs
And they overheat in about 25 or 30 minutes. I had an XTR 2500 that would do 3.5K
on voltage over 14 but they don't have any surface area for cooling. I upgraded to an
SKv2 3500.1 which does the same power at the same voltage for twice the money.
But it's also twice the size and three times the weight. It doesn't shut down EVER.
@@robertdavidson548 I have a skv2 as well and it's an incredible amp. Sounds super bad ass
@@robertdavidson548 but I've had my zvx's for around 6 months and they never over heat. Stop being paranoid. The subs are gonna heat up. Don't touch them non stop. Those coils are made to handle the heat
lol. I posted this comment in the wrong thread. I'm so ree
The evl line is built for the rp amp line in my opinion
I have two evl 15s and I play like the mid 20 Hertz daily mines dont smell and haven't had any problems with them and Im running them on a taramps md 8000.1 in a coustom tuned box no clipping and I beat the hell out of them daily 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
BassAddict 91 u give em the whole 8k??
BassAddict 91 that’s awesome if you give them the 8k
I own an evl 18 on an rp 2k. If your running stock alt run a 3rd battery and that amp and sub will really come to life...
Oh and don't forget run it at 1 ohm with gains set prop that sub easily handles 2k musicaly all day when set right
Same....amazing sub dude....and the evl is considered mid-level 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Well at least you got the video of you voiding your warranty. That is why proper break in is important. Not what some "not the people who are engineers " says on youtube.
Watch EMFs video on brake in. He probably knows more than anyone when it comes to Subwoofers
Whats better that american bass or the skar evl?.??
I made a video comparing them. Check it out on my channel
Resilient sounds gold series
Hey Parker, I love the videos. I am having a tough time deciding between the Skar EVL 12 and the Deaf Bonce SA272. I know you have reviewed both, but can you tell me which one you like better and why? The Skar has more xmax and a bigger VC, but the DB is similar, but rated higher rms. I need 3 12s so is the DB worth the extra $70 per sub? Thats an additional $210 for me since I need 3. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
I would definitely run with scar from watching Parker‘s videos he doesn’t flat out say it but I don’t think he is a fan at all of scar audio that is just my opinion though I am a huge fan of scar but still love Parker‘s videos even though I don’t think he is a fan of scar at all not just that and all you’re saving over $210 you could buy an extra skirt sub for that price LOL my bed mat scar sub for that price
I agree
The evl is a great sub all the way around. Have you ever think about running custom made subwoofer or hybrids?
Another great video keep it up I'm rooting for the American Bass sub but there all pretty good IMO Stay focused and good luck in school homie .When of it you get a chance can you rate some subs that are really efficient with lower RMS ?
Parker Dacchille Bro Review the Sundown SA-12 Rev3
Dude that shit sounds good as fuck. And you moved up a notch in my book and that's notch one because you banging that screw.
Check out a emf lowballer or a yolo.a ermagerd might be too much but they are awesome or ofcourse dd audio 99 or z series
I have a Evl 12 d2 and wired to 1 ohm on my rp 1500.1. I need to get a bigger amp. I have not clamped it and not sure exactly how many watts the amp is pushing out. I have not metered it, but I am impressed with skar. I want to get the rp 3500 and get two evl d4. Now, unfortunately my box at the moment is a Qbomb ported. I think I would get better performance on a custom box but don’t have the tools or know how to make one.
Hell yea dude. That's awesome. I'm gonna get 2 of those in a aero ported enclosure. Once my 3 vvx 8v3s finally die anyways
yeah, 40 Hz is the sweet spot on that setup. I prefer sundown the lows are better on the sundowns for some reason.
man i love the evl i got with all my soul lol glad to see you got this sub
I got their two evl 12's package with ported box and Amp coming to replace my two jbl 10's
Meter all the subs in same box on same wattage on same burp test
That would favor whichever sub matches your single enclosure idea and wouldn't represent them fairly
Did it smell bad at all? My evl 18 stunk the whole time I owned it. Traded it off for a Wolfram silver. Best sub I've had yet
Yep my i evl-12 stank like 99% of the time never let me down but stank
Same my evl 12 constantly smells
Just got my 12" evl last week and it smells bad. I was guessing break in???
@@swiftxb nope and fuckers are always going to smell don't worry about it though it's a little annoying but they will never let you down unless you really really over power on
Smell goes away over time had same issues on vvx 15s an 8s
nice job on the video bro!! next up test a DB Drive subwoofer!
I got an evl 15 great sub happy you made this video
Should I do this sub in 10” or a kicker comp Q 10”
I wonder what the sound difference is between your enclosure and the one my EVL came with from Skar.
the one you have is made for the evl so it will sound better
dude, i really like the audio levels of this video, didnt adjust it one bit.
I have a buddy that has 6 of the evl 12's on 2 3500.1 strapped. Strapped the 3500 is 7600 watts rms in a series 6th order hits lows
Not after box rize
@slitherman7883 ah sh*t you just got it all figured out don't you lol smh
@@kdsboosted4954 no not really thats simple though
Nice job parker....good info...can we see the 18s...against each other..
My evl 12 is dying after 2 years to date suround cracking bad from the texas heat in the trunk of a black car... been beating the crap out of it for 2 years str8 on a skar rp1500...crazy bang for 1 sub though
You need to do an RMS test with the Skar EVL
Tropo xl 1000rms 115 bucks rn on the website
What web site?
That sell ended but ctsounds .com for the website
Now they are $159 and been out of stock since they came out.
not bad
looks similar to my Sunfire HRS 12 I have had in my home for many years. the basically 1cbft sealed box pounds with its 1000watt amp.
of course not as loud down very low but this thing will hit 20hz no problem
Just picked up 2 15 evl in a box cant wait to be slappin
i have the 12 inch svr they are pretty good to me... should i get the evl next guys ? any difference ?
It can take more power. Does look and sound like it would be better
Dang 5.7 k subscribers! Nice jon Park!
Thanks man!
What kind of camera do you use to record your videos. The bass sounds pretty good compared to other youtube bass videos
Just an old Nikon
Thanks for making this video men your awesome
If u want to see a truly. Impressive su and get a resilient sounds platinum 12
Damn right
yes. I moved from skar to one of these and it was worth every bit of it.
@@FatboyBass if u ever want to try something different try a fi btl neo I had two of them on ten K and they hit harder than five zvx 12's they were only two 15's Idk if just got my box perfect or if I didn't have my box quite right but the zvx did get down for the money Idk any better sub
I have one of these 12s in the factory ported enclosure and im about to order a 1300rms D4S amp. The Skar 1200.1 i had is no more...but honestly it didnt seem like enough before i ruined it 😂
Skar vd 12 is a nice sub also that's what I am running I have four of them going in a box Soon on a skar 2000 rp.1d amp
Do the skar vxf
Can u do the zvx next
I might! I’d really like to test one
I just bought a death penalty 12. It's my first ever big boy sub Haha. So I'm pumped and excited. Also very nervous when I get it in. Then again I gotta wait to get the other IA death penalty 12 to complete it hahs. Congratulations on everything your doing. Keep up your hard work
@@ParkerTheBasshead it will become your daily driver if you get one I promise. That's when you will fall in love. You think you have the fever now? U just wait lol
Zvx 8 is 900 rms its a beast for an 8 spl woofer
@@redbrown5695 hell yeah my two in my Lexus ES350 are tearing my car apart. I've got roof flex, door flex, and trunk flex. They have to be in a box custom made for them though with the exact right airspace to hit like they're supposed to. The box I had to begin with was too small and it was smothering them. it's amazing the difference it made when I had a custom box made for them
Really like the pricing of there products. But I'm truly a JL AUDIO / ROCKFORD FOSGATE fan but gonna buy a SKAR 15 just to check it out and if it get ripped off not out a-lot of cash for it...LOL
Good vid bro. Which is your favorite 12 inch sub no matter cost so far?
The American Bass
Another good video 👍
ive had both the xfl is only a spl sub the evl is all about sq and the evl does that well and they do there best at 37 hrtz
I would love to get the Skar DNR 15 and put it ok a skar sk 4K.
playin a sub under its rated frequency is a good way to rip the spider, happenned to me on my american bass XR12s
Do you still have this EVL Parker?
I'm just curious if you toasted it, or if it's on a Shelf.
I'm loving mine.
I sold it a while back. Never game me any issues
@@ParkerTheBasshead 😏👍 Cool. Thanks bud!
Better than sundown, skar doesn't have as much quality issues as sundown as far as I've seen
Nice video Parker, I love skar myself. I have 2 ddx12's on a rp2k in a 5cu ft box. Would like to see you try NEP subwoofers
I have the zvx 12 on a 3000 watt old school crunch ground pounder pro. The amp is a monster. Will do almost 5k at 17 volts but I'm only running 12-14 volts. Would the 15 inch evl sound better that the 12 inch zvx? Since there is more cone area? This zvx is crazy loud. Can balance napkins in my window.
Hey great video I always wondered about skar subs, they are affordable but wondered if they were worth it, so is it better than the sundown or what
Depends on what you’re looking for. I’d say for the price they are better than Sundown but if you looking for really extreme comp subs then sundowns higher end stuff is insane
Are These louder then Sundown audio SA?
@@omarrolle7950 You'll have to keep in mind that there are a lot of different factors when it come to "loudness." Different vehicles, different size/type of boxes, power, freq, etc. The best way to find out is test, test, test. I went through Kicker and Sundown throughout different setup over the years and both of them are great. Both do have pros and cons. Soon I'm going to try Skar for the first time and I'm excited to try something different. But yeah, as I've stated before, it's all depend on factors.
Hey man new to channel great stuff!! I got 2 type r 12 right now they're pretty good but was planning on 1 15 what you think is a great 15in for the price preferably under 600
For 600 there are a ton of great options! I’m not really up to speed on subs that expensive tho. If you like Skar I think the NDR is around that price
@@ParkerTheBasshead I was looking into the skar and sundown brands heard good things I'll keep looking thanks .
Try the sundown 12 sa it's also $200 or less
what’s that drake nonstop song ?? is it a remix cuz it slaps
How much power you putting on the EVL in this test?
I need to help instal my 12 inch evl man i got a 1500d monoblock skar audio amp help me how should i do amp options its in ported box skar audio also
How did that end up sounding bro? I bought that package and I'm wondering if I should cancel and get an RP 2000 Amp instead?
@@357Franknitty it bangs good 1500 bruh i dont even turn up the knob lol im afraid :D 1x 12 2500 wat runs 1500 amp sht sound bangs i turn up knob barely 35 40% if you bass head you might need too for me 1 enough shakes trunk back windows 😅
Can you do the American Bass XMAXXX 12”. For some reason you can only buy them at SSA store.
I might get one at some point. The price tag is still pretty high for me
When ever you’re ready, until then, keep up the good work.
That’s a nice watch, keep it away from that sub. It will slow it down and won’t keep time correctly until you get it degaussed.
I have a JL(THANK GOD) but iv been looking at scar. The hypes bern there but it seems like some negative feedback is surfacing...like ppl who spent a couple grand or so on a package to have a lot of it burn out just to get there warranty turned down by scar...or the replacement just never comes in...good luck dude
Trust me stick with jl audio it gets a lot of bad rap but from me so far best daily setup I've ever heard were 2 13.5 w7 on a hifonics 2400. I wish Parker could get a single 12 w7 like used or a loaner to see how he likes it but that sub is way too expensive for me.
