@Kile Wahl I don't see how what I run is relevant. If you must know I run Stereo Integrity components and Subs with AudioControl Amplifiers and DSP. What I was saying is that no 8" is worth $500. One 12" @ $300 will destroy a pair of those @$1000 all day long not only in SQ but SPL as well. Most people run 8s due to lack of space. In my opinion instead of running 2 or 4 eights you're better off going with a good quality 10 or 12 and it save you money.
I have a pair of the DD 2508’s supercharged. By far the best 8’s I’ve ran to date. I wish they still made the mini Z’s. Now I’m waiting on the Sundown Audio Z8’s and NS8’s to release
I for one am not joining the battle. When an 8 is closer to a 9.2" than it is to being an actual 8", the entire category should be rewritten. Imagine a boxing match, they all have to weigh in at a specific weight to be in the same class. Whereas woofers, seems like anything goes these days. Just call the sub an 8.75 or 9". However, this particular comparison makes sense as they are both oversized. Meanwhile, I'll just try to stay true to the class, offering a true 8 that can fit anywhere.
I love the DD 2508 and the JL 8” w7, as fas as a combination of SPL, SQ and efficiency of power which sub would you recommend? SUB’d and like’d the video 👍
The 2508 is a TRUE 8 inch subwoofer. Makes perfect sense to me to make the cutout the size of its advertisement. Other manufacturers should take notice and jump on the bandwagon. Afterall, it's not like they aren't sharing other properties with multiple manufacturers. Pee, poop or get off the pot! 🤣
my son had 2 dd 1508s supercharged on a m2 and stomp that db drive, 2 2508s supercharged will take a m4000 all day long, motor size means nothing to me its all on motor design dd 95000 looks like a little girl next to a sundown x but whose gonna get louder the 9500
Hey bro off topic but please show us your bench test power setup. You did a free air demo on a 10 L7 q class. Was that powered by a vehicle off camera or home powered setup
I'm assuming that dd audio has a patent or patents that doesn't allow other sub companies to build true to size... all about the money Dd 8 inch sub should be compared to a regular 10 ,cuz them regular 8 inch subs look like 6 inch subs 🤔
Gately Audio Relentless 8" V2 Subwoofer is the only 8" worth considering. 1200rms, only needs 0.75cf and $500. It will blow away both of these 8's and the current Sundown 8's being developed.
I keep it a thousand I could never be a hundred! I can't afford these damn 8's but I wish I had 2 in my 87 300zx. *You said it, "if cone area doesn't matter why buy 8" for $500 over a 12 or 15 for $500"?
Hey man help me out which one is better honest opinion the DB g7 or DD 2580g ??? Or the sundown x8 V.4 1k watt ?? Although the 2580g max watt is 3600w?? I’m tryna order a pair asap!!!!
This gonna be a close one, the DD has efficient cooling but takes less power as compared to the G7 but the G7 can take more power but the cooling isn't as efficient as the DD, to me its a battle of who can play louder longer. Hate to stray from the topic but have you ever checked the deaf bonce apocalypse 8?
Battle? 800 watt rms vs 1250 rms and you think it's a battle? The only way DD wins is if they sandbag all their RMS wattage ratings for some oddball purpose. He says the DD can take 1,000 all day long, but something tells me that's not a good idea, especially not 1250 or they would not have rated it 800rms. The G7 is actually rated for 1250 rms. More power will always win out with same size decent brand subs
You will be surprised how much power the DD can actually take. Don’t depend on manufactures RMS ratings. Skar for example lies on their rating. I do believe the DB will take 1250 and maybe a little more but the DD will to. Each of mine are on a M2000 at 1 ohm for a daily sir
@@M.B.Enclosures Don’t depend on manufactures RMS ratings? That's a pretty bold statement. How else are people supposed to know what a sub can handle on a regular basis without blowing it to find out? If DD is truly underrating their subs that much, they are being complete A'holes and just another reason to never buy their products. I'm sure most subs can handle more power, but that doesn't mean it should be done if a person intends on keeping the sub for as long as possible. If they don't care about longevity I guess anything can be done to the sub.
Nice not sure if those are worth the money because I got an 18" Resilient Sounds Platinum for $488 shipped. It can handle over 4k rms watts all day. They also come in 10" models if you want to review it next MBE.
@@M.B.Enclosures you are killing it with your comments. You are %100 correct taking these kids to school. I have been in car audio for over 30 years and you are right on point
You go chase them big burp monsters,I'd take the DD any day over anything db drive makes..DD brings that nasty bottom end and musicality..and I'm a sundown man..
Love to see your top 10 of sq/ light sq"l" subs. What DD has, DB, jbl, stereo integrity, kicker ect... doing more of an sq but still want a little volume. Leaning towards the jbl 12" or stereo integrity 12/15". Always like the Guru's input if time allows.
Yes. I'm not worried if the tweeters are X brand, mids are Y brand, etc.. I actually like a mix. Besides until someone is cutting me a check to go exclusively one brand... nope. But the fashion stickers for my windows that say "steal me"... I'll miss that lol. Thanks for the replies from all. 👍
Thanks to your review I am at the shop getting 2 db g7 8’s installed in my Lincoln Corsair with a db g7 2500.1 amp.
@@DeeJayMoneyMike get setup
This is how all reviews should be! Straight to the nitty gritty!
No way in hell I'd ever pay anywhere near $500 for a damn 8" sub. I don't care if the cone is made out of Panda. It's just not worth it.
FACTS NOT FICTION 👍🏾💯
You have obviously never had a cone made out of Panda.
Worth every penny.
What you got instead.

I purchased the G3.4 15s about three months ago and loving them. The G7s are new and was eyeing the 12s for another project.
Im sticking with the DD 2508 its proven itself time and time again

I’m definitely looking forward to my (2) Rampage 8’s on a 2500.1 (V1) amp in my truck.
Great comparison 😉👍🏼
QClass 8 we need. Put one out Kicker.
A 500 dollar 8 inch sub is cool and all but 500 towards a nice 12 or 15 is a much better value.
Love some good competion, but think the 2508 still gonna be 👑 🔊💨💨💨
Awesome video. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Are you gonna do a comparison between the G7 and the Nemesis 8 🤔
Maybe

Fake carbon fiber paper cap and all.
Man that dd looks like a 10
thats because its not an 8 lol . but its proply what an 8 should be with an 8inch cutout.

What’s the price tag on the DD SC8?
When you gonna put them in the truck Boss?

Badass subs both American engineered I believe and I like the proprietary baskets that’s why they cost so much.
Garbage
What to get, dd2058(non supercharged)800wrms..or kicker l7 8" 600w rms
db drive all the way
Nice
What 12 or 15 would you recommend from DD
Any
You go chase them big burp monsters,I'd take the DD any day over anything db drive makes..DD brings that nasty bottom end and musicality..and I'm a sundown man..
How would they compare to jlw7...
That is a SQ sub really.. power limited. 8w7 not in this league.
@@M.B.Enclosures I own these subwoofer with all amplifier from jl as wells..,. I had always wonder if there's anot subwoofer with deeper bass. Thanks

Would love to see dude try out 8" woofers from #zeroflex
💯
@mbe so what's the best 8" dd audio 2508sc, dbg7, or x8v4?
Mbe doesn’t like the Sundowns… Even if he did the 2508SC are the best in the industry IMO when it comes to 8’s.

What is the woofer surround material for each?
Foam…but the DD incorporates ribs for linearity

Can you speak up a little louder on the next video turn the mic up so people can hear you
You got a bad phone.
Everybody copying everybody’s designs and then add something to make it different.
Neither of these is a copy of anyone
Both them subs look like 10s! 😅
They do
More super 8s . The 10” sub might be an endangered species.
😂
Comparing an 8 to a 9 inch sub is comical lol
Will you say that when Sundown Z8 comes to market.
All that technology to not make it a true 8”. 🤔
