    I had bought the comp r 12’s set from Best Buy. They hit pretty good but after watching videos like this I pulled the trigger and ordered two SVR 12’s and holy crap what a difference. I took the kickers back.
  • @bassface1984
    Thanks for showing these two subs.I have 2 15 SVR on RP1500 and it does exactly what I desire.The sound quality is the most important fact to me and the svr is awesome at sq the lows are superb. Really dig your channel and the test you conduct. Definitely helps the consumer.
  • @mattmcgee8046
    Thanks for the video I have been on the fence about the svr's but ur videos help me make the decision to order them thanks
  • @Banshee421x
    But what is the sq difference between the 2?
  • Man I really love your channel brother! I'm gonna do a sealed box with 2 svr 12's in it... this video helped me pull the trigger on them....I love American bass but I put one sdr 15 in about 2cf sealed in my son's car & was amazed at how great a sub that cheap sounded & how hard hitting it was.. figured if I went up to the svr 12s in my own car I'd be happy.... but you're videos are my go to for these decisions... thank you soo much for all you do for us bassheads!!!
  • @Ronco160
    Should've done an RMS power handling test. see which handles their rms for the longest.
  • Maybe cut a couple pieces for a baffle, that you can slide into the port to isolate chambers and return the port to its original tuning?
  • Would like to have seen a comparison with seperate boxes exactly alike measured maybe at a foot away. I really feel like the differences between the two subs stiffness can affect the output of each sub when placed together in the same box sharing air space!!! The stiffer sub is going to provide more back pressure

    I gotta go with Skar. My Jeep is a soft top and sticking $200 - $300 speakers is not a smart move. This is vid is a big help, thx for this! Its nice to know I dont have to settle for crap when it comes to paying less.
  • @david029014
    did you break in those subs before test? I hear the sundowns surrounding is pretty tight they need some break in do get loud.
  • @DesigNate21
    I liked this video, I am just like what your talking about where I am budget builder. I like the 200 and below subs. Maybe these subs don't have the flare of the 1500 rms ones do and all that these days? Keep them great vids coming!
  • idk if you just didn't put in the right info for the chart of the subs, just because you haven't updated it or just have it wrong. but its kinda ocd when i see some wrong info on it. but still dope video. quick question. i actually got the ELV 12 like a week ago but im not sure if i shoulda just got 2 svr 12s or have what i have now. (the EVL).
  • @msh6865
    The Sundown E series is closer to what might be considered "entry level". They really need at least 10 hours of break-in as well. Got mine from the Sundown yard sale for a great deal. They do dig deep.
  • I have that SVR 12 in the single speaker version of that box hooked up to a Rockville RVA-M3 @1 ohm in my Ranger and it pounds. The Rockville has preformed like a champ so far. I couldn't find much info that particular model at the time but it fit my budget so I gave it a shot and it has worked out well. I had the Skar SDR 12 before that and it was decent but if you have the money the extra $40 for the SVR is worth it. Higher sensitivity, handles the higher bass better, smoother overall sound, just seems to have more 'punch'
  • @ericsmith3317
    I'm running 2 E v4 15s in a 6.5³' enclosure tuned 30hz on a skar skv2 3500.1 in my daily and I love it! Metered 150.3 ! I'd say thats damn good for 2 super budget subs
  • @13brotarybug
    Whats your opinion on the massive audio hippo series? I have some 6.5s that are impressive in my opinion, looking at getting the hippo84xlr. 1800 watts "CEA" rated of course, but still very interesting. I dont see many people testing these subs thoroughly yet. Not even Exo lol.

    During the SPL sound testing if you listen at 2x speed you can hear Doc Rivers step in and help with narration!
