Badass! That is the craziest American Bass sub I've ever seen. I'm really feeling the yellow basket for somec reason too. Just awesome... not that i could lift it, but i love it.
Im glad you enjoyed watching 😊 I also like the yellow basket. It's a nice touch. And yes I am dreading loading this into box and all of it into trunk of car. Box is around 75lbs and it's 112lbs. So roughly 187lbs give or take some 😬
Strictly n spl sub for sure. I bet it can take a good bit of abuse. I like fosgate, dd, old kicker n jl but those American bass are true to spec sometimes underrated!
*Bro just did a full 10 minute workout just for us .... we appreciate you! lol I wonder if my box can handle that sub line (in 15s). I'm currently running 4 cuft per sub in a ported box*
Boy was I ticked off I bought a american bass xr 12 d2 off ebay from a reputable seller and it came box had been opened sticker was removed and spec sheet.....but plastic around sub had never been removed nor did it look to have ever been outta the box ...someone just removed the sticker and spec sheet....sub plays well its nothing of the kings caliber but is a very nice sub ....sounds amazing ...but man was I ticked off about my sticker ....
Pheww what a monster... Ain cheap but whatever it's pretty stout. Basket kinda looks like a JL W7. Need some serious power to move that suspension a 6500w amp would not move it much you need actual 6500watts so a 12k would make it jump.
@@74midwestbass74 just get them from Dan Horner AKA Directronix. I learned my lesson with American base.

@212 Tan yeah they bump but man probably not even close to these American bass I'm so jealous I've been wanting the xmaxx 12s for awhile now just can't afford em lol
I'm local to Bob and American bass, yet can't stand it. Bob hasent change a bit lol. He messed up and put way to many spiders on this sub. Yet creating a spl sub. If he would of changed it up. Dropping the fs now you're on to somthing.
You would be surprised, it's like school bus yellow with gold flake in it. I tried to match the port to the sub today.... Needless to say port is purple 🤣
I would like to get my hands on the new American Bass GF 11D amps. Though American Bass has a new lineup of godfather amps. 200.4, 500.4, 1500, 3500, 5k, 7k, 11k, 15k. I may have missed 1 or 2 but check them out. Some are still not posted online yet if you need 1 call Bob at American Bass directly to order! 440-248-5858
Ya you are not joking. They failed in that department. To be fair though, the motor is almost the exact same diameter as basket. I don't know if it would fit in hole with boot. Basket is 288mm, motor is 280mm
Why do SPL guys love this trash.... American Bass but made in China...says alot.... I rather run my SQL15 then american bass...i rather run arc audio then skar or sundown...
Not sure what you're getting at but I have American Bass Xmax 12 D2s in my truck currently. They are wired to 0.5 ohm on VFL Comp 8K amp. I have no problem with doing 150s and it sounds great doing it 🤔
Can you name any All-American brands that you run or have 100% setups of?? Oh and to be TECHNICAL... It's called American Bass, it's made in China, the owner Bob Ahuja is Arabic, and nobody gives a fuck 🤔🤣👑🙌

@@212Tan back many years ago when I got back into car audio... The first brand i ran was Skar Audio and thought it was dope ...i bought a single VVX15 and a RP1500 and it slammed but i eventually upgraded to AB XFL 15 and a AB Amplifier that pushed 2k...but i started to realize how much all these companies are just cookie cutters and they all buy from the same few Chinese dealers ...AB made an amplifier that was identical to Skar Audio .. budget gem budget bust did a video on them....many of the subs i had wanted were all copies of another design...i come from the 90s were Fosgate was king and there was no such thing as cookie cutters and whatever the rating said on the box was under rated...so, i told myself if i got back into car audio i want nothing but quality which is why i run all Tru Technology Amplifiers but i am switching over to stereo ingrity amps and speakers..i learned how to tune and bought a DSP abd umik2 mic ..i have ran everything from zapco, sinfoni, abyss, morel, rebec, mosconi,steg abd even McIntosh..all high end

@@212Tanyeah man... a buddy and some beer may be needed when the time comes lol. That's crazy
I remember when I bought my MTX 9500 back in the day 20 yrs ago it was mounted to 3/4” MDF . And that was a 80 lb sub .
Box will be double walled 0.75 inch plywood (1.5 inch thickness) and baffle will be quad so 3 inch thick
the old 9500s were beastly back then! Those and the Soundstream
@@SteveDab317 you can still get a Soundstream Team X5 series that's 3500 RMS
Yep the 9500s came packaged really well. Loved those subs back in the day. Wish MTX still made cool stuff for the US market.
Strictly n spl sub for sure. I bet it can take a good bit of abuse. I like fosgate, dd, old kicker n jl but those American bass are true to spec sometimes underrated!
Thank you for the amazing detail video.
wow!
This looks very similar to the Deaf Bonce 4512 subwoofer. Both beasts for sure
What a beast
*Bro just did a full 10 minute workout just for us .... we appreciate you! lol
I wonder if my box can handle that sub line (in 15s). I'm currently running 4 cuft per sub in a ported box*
Should be ok, tune around 32-36
? 6500rms ? Dam that is a monster!!!! I love it
With the bigger coils I would go 15s and 18s. The spider on 12 is way to small. Not gonna flex much
I would've gotten the 15" just because $50 difference isn't much. But the spider is the same diameter. It's just wider at the top.
And I thought my Xv3's were massive lol. Beautiful man!👏
I like the way the surround is reinforced, but not ribbed like a condom. Super dope sub. For sure.
The American Bass name on surround looks sweet too!
@@212Tan yessir i noticed that towards the end, nice touch... they went all out on that bad boy. Really really cool!
Need to have that scale on a hard flat surface before weighing something
Well aware of how to weigh something homie. It weighs the same on the floor tho 😉
Large and in charge! I haven't seen these subs yet. Dang, that thang is ENORMOUS!
So what would be a better bet? American Bass king or something like a Sundown Audio NSv6
Probably the Sundown. I honestly don't know though. I've never owned a Sundown product
Boy was I ticked off I bought a american bass xr 12 d2 off ebay from a reputable seller and it came box had been opened sticker was removed and spec sheet.....but plastic around sub had never been removed nor did it look to have ever been outta the box ...someone just removed the sticker and spec sheet....sub plays well its nothing of the kings caliber but is a very nice sub ....sounds amazing ...but man was I ticked off about my sticker ....
I have tons bro. You can have one of mine 😉
In the right box and a 8k Amp for head room that sub will slap very hard... I want one real bad....
I'd put a sundown salt 12 k to this sub
My god that thing is absolutely huge
What’s the rms and do you have 2 , what amp are you using?
Nice
How were the vfl signature comp subs thinking about 2 15s ?
I love mine,
Whats the specs for a sealed box
🤷 *not recommend*

I'm over american bass... moved from Bob to Rob! This sub was packaged super poor, and I'll bet it'll sound descent.
What’s that a water bed you’re opening it on?🤣
Would almost match my autotech alt👌

Bumblebee tranformed into a subwoofer... 😂
The basket looks like NEP audio to me
American bass it’s one thing I hate they don’t come with enclosure specs !!! Hello
Where’s the beef? Right there
That's a lot for just one sub that's enough for a cheap setup
I agree. My girl car has (2) XD 10s for $130 and VFL Comp 2k for $181. Hell you can buy 2 Xmax 12 or VFL Comp Signature 12 for $1300 😂🤷

@@austinmartens7374 amp is 8k and box is almost 3 cubes net for just the 12. Going into the trunk of a Pontiac Grand Prix GTP
Second time this came on my home screen so now I feel forced to watch 😅
@@srensen4251 lol🤣
Your not getting an accurate weight by doing it on the bed,. The padding is taking on some of weight. Side note,. That thing looks like a beast !
6500 RMS and no I bought only 1. They $1300 each. I have VFL Comp 8k for amplifier
Bed might not have been the best spot to un-box a 85+ sub
...edit 112+lbs sub
Thanks for the comment
For that much money it would be nice if they add a motor boot .
Ya you are not joking. They failed in that department. To be fair though, the motor is almost the exact same diameter as basket. I don't know if it would fit in hole with boot. Basket is 288mm, motor is 280mm
Don't know hoe those boxes survived
Idk either, would have been nice to see these in a fancy wooden crate like the good ol days
Never seen someone struggle over 100lbs so bad in my life lmao, dude you need some exercise in your routine
Say you a hating ass B**tch without saying it 💯😂
