If y’all get a reply comment saying you won something it is a SCAM! I do my giveaways over on the Facebook page ONLY! I really appreciate y’all! So close to 65k 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
This series reminds me of the 90's. Im 45 and this is the stuff we did in the 90's!!!! Great Job Parker!! Reminds me of being a teenager again. I'm teaching my boys and they have been loving it.
Those ports are too close to the back wall. You generally want the width of the port worth of distance between a port and a wall. But still turned out awesome!
It's interesting actually because you can slightly decrease the ports tuning by making it seem longer, by pushing the end of the port close to a wall. You want the port area to be equal to the "folded rectangular area" of... Well, imagine you have a rectangle, and that rectangles length is equal to the port circumference, and the rectangles width is equal to the distance from the port to the wall. That rectangle needs to have the same area as the port area. This will extend the ports effective length by a few inches or so. Free low tuning!
It's a good thing that you are bringing to light that you can go cheap and achieve great results. For example I have been running two dual brand 12's in a bandpass box on a jvc 600 watt amp for about 13 years now and it still hits around 130db. Keep doing what your doing!
Literally dude your videos get better and better each day. It’s awesome to be apart of your journey and see how far things have gone for you! Keep it up dude!❤️
this is awsome. im fixing to build me a box for a rockford fosgate p3 12 for inside my house. i got some polk audio 6x9 i got on sale at walmart. i got 4 of them and i plane to use the 4 6x9 polks and the single rockford fosgate p3 and whatever other speakers and amplifiers i can find to put in it. its basically gonna be a budget car audio/ home audio build for inside the house.
why is it even ported? i have never understood why sealed boxes are so overlooked. forget the port and put a divider in the box to split them into paired chambers. will sound and perform way better.
Yea this budget stuff is way more interesting to people I think, who cares or wants to hear about some niche/esoteric subwoofer that no one can afford? it's way more interested to see random cheap subs that can outperform or do something different. I haven't looked but I'm curious if you've tested the Sony Xplode subs? I read quite a few of your commenters talking about how loud they got and they're dirt cheap. I've got a humble kicker Q class L7 10 inch, but I'm always looking at other subs to see what else is out there. Also I subbed cause I like the way you test subs, very real world.
I used to have a 94 exploder with a kicker l5 12 in a ported box running on a jbl amp pushing 750rms and did 140 in a sound comp. Cheaper then this set up and better quality parts
I just Bought 2 15inch NVX. They are same price as the gothics but much better in my opinion. They take 750 rms. I was gonna go with the gothics but decided to go the 15 inch route
Nice video I had 2 Jensen's 12 from Walmart with the 1200 watt Jensen XDA91RB ya I was trying to bug the neighbors with throwing a third 1 in!!! keep doing what you do.. love the videos just waken up on my birthday today thanks Parker l learned alot from you 👍👍🔈🔉🔊 turn up the bass for me 😜
The rms on those subs is 1200 watts (2400 collectively) The rms on those amps is 650 @ 1ohm (collectively 1300 watts rms). Those subs are severely underpowered! I have two of those Gothic 12" subs in a 6.5 cube, strongly reinforced, box running off an Audio pipe 2500 watt amp (rms 1800) ! The bass is phenomenal! But also the musicality is AMAZING!!! I've been crank'n them subs up for 4 years and their longevity is notable as well!
I've been following your channel for almost two years now. I just want to say thank you for all your hard work and dedication in your videos. I've learned a lot and this series has been great. I'm excited to see where you go from here. Keep up the great work and bass on bro!!!
I know you're young so it's hard to think about it right now but if you don't start protecting your hearing you're going to regret it when you're older. Trust me I do. Loud ringing tinnitus 24/7 is not fun.
Just seeing how you had the areo ports as I’m watching the distance between the back wall to the port isn’t quite ideal you should probably have another inch or two for better air flow just so you don’t get chuffing
Honestly, I love these types of videos. It really shows that cheap solutions aren't bad and it shows that they may actually be worth it. Great video sir. 😁 You should definitely do more videos like this :) Have a good day!
The diameter of the port determines how close it can be to the rear wall. Try cutting out some spacers so you can move the ports outwards away from the rear wall you’ll definitely see some gains.
This was a stupid test, way to much port area for 1. I HAVE 2 Gothics on 1400w and does a 50 no problems, the glue does stink on these for awhile, but these subs for a pair 1 6 inch port is perfect.
Back in the late 90's early 2k when i was building car-audio, a friend of mine made a bet with some dude that he could take some shit woofers and outplay his costly system. So we bought 4x10" MDS woofers for 20$ each , i then built a ported box tailored for his Volvo 240GLT with the ports up into the cabin and woofers facing forward, coupled into 2x2 Ohm , powered by an Orion 250HCCA And to this day, my friend says he has never heard such cheap woofers play that loud and hard.
Hey PARKER u should invert them subs & hook them up to a TRUE 2k or 3k like the smart 3k taramp u have wire them to 1ohm but DO NOT reverse the main line wire from box to amp basically wire them up like they would b if they not inverted meaning normal wire up & take off about 4" of the areo ports and plus roll down both door windows & bet u will love this sound that this will push out then and u may smell alil coil burn & might b able to hit mid 140's db @ roughly range of 35-40 hz???.... I have 3 of them woofers they r inverted built my own box with slot port tuned @ 27hz subs wired to a AUDIOPIPE APMI 2K wired @ 2.67ohm load & it metered @ 142.68db @ 28hz upgraded electrical & 2nd battery 1/0ga wire & i had my bass crew and they were all surprised by my build i only have about 800$ into my setup and i have this in a 97 f150 ext cab with lower seat removed and i have had this setup for 8yrs & they still bumping but ik they say 1200rms but they wont do it i think they r only 750rms...
I had 2 these crappy gothic series wanted to mess around with cheap stuff i had a cab audio 1600.1 put it all in a 04 neon sounded like one would think 90$ per sub 250 amp but still worth the price.
I have 1 12 in a platinum f-150. In a properly built box. 3.15 ported. Port displacement is 1.2. So the box is big. Around 5 cubic feet. Tuned to 30. 144@31hz, 140@25hz clamping 1930 watts. Knowing how to build a box is only way to get results. Manufacturers specs are always wrong. Unless you like 40-50hz. I do not.
I have 2 of those with a 1200 Jensen and an other 12 I’m not sure of but I tuned my amp perfectly and all of them together would shake cars from 6+ parking spaces away and I would be watching the truck and there would be paint from the roof flying off but my truck was older it was a 1995 f150 but the subs would shake the steering wheel when i would drive down the road 😂
Have your sins been forgiven today and forever? Think about this. The God of the bible, the One True God made us to worship him, obey him, and enjoy him forever. We break His laws daily by not putting Him first, not thanking Him like we should, we lie, we lust, we have sex before marriage, we dishonor our parents, we covet things other people have, we take God's name and use it in vain, we use it in a low manner, sometimes as a cuss word, (God is holy and even His name is holy), we don't love like we should, etc. In doing so we're saying He's not a good provider, He's a liar, He's untrustworthy, He's not worthy of praise. All these things and more are counted against us. The bible says God is the just judge of the world and one day He will settle the score for all the wrong we've done. God is holy meaning He is righteous (morally perfect in thought, word, and deed) It also means He is set apart and higher than us. God being good, must punish all sin or wrong doing in the world. This means that if you sin one time God will cast you in hell for eternity. Because He is good and He doesn't turn a blind eye to sin. But there is good news. 2000 years ago Jesus the Son of God came into this world and lived a perfect life ( He never sinned once) and He died on the cross taking the wrath that we deserve and paid the penalty for the sins we committed. The bible says that if you will repent (confess and forsake your sins) and trust in what Christ did on the cross (He took the wrath of God that was meant for you and I) then all your sins will be forgiven and when you die you will be in heaven with God and all who believe for eternity. Jesus died and on the third day He rose from the grave. Get right with God today don't wait. Once you die after that comes the judgement. Hebrews 9:27 It's the most important thing you can do. You must be born again John 3:7 If you repent and trust in what Christ did on the cross it shows that you've been born again or born spiritually. Right now you're dead in your sins and you can't see the beauty of Jesus Christ but after you trust in Christ all the things you hate about God like obeying him, serving Him, loving Him and others, reading the bible, praying and going to church you will love to do those things because God changes your heart. That's how you know you have been born again and forgiven. Please think long about this and ask me any questions you have as this is the most important thing you can ever think of in your life. An eternity in hell (darkness and a lake of fire the bible describes it, with weeping and gnashing of teeth) or an eternity out of that place and into the loving arms of God who is infinitely glorious, has infinite knowledge and has infinite power to do all that He pleases. You decide. Have a great day!
My test box before building my center console was 3 cubes, 28hz, single 12in gothic facing to the rear and port up. Had 4 inches of clearance between sub and cab wall.... was hitting just over 136db alone. You box should have been minimal 10 cubes n 30hz for specs correct? The enclosure really makes a difference with these subs.
I know you guy's do car systems and you are amazing. I'm guessing you are also great at house audio. Well, I love music, it's my freedom. I have a portable speaker, Xtra large block rocker. What started happening is the sound would go high then low, repeating over and over. What is causing this to happen? I use a RCA to aux cord connection. Please help me with a solution. Please.
I used to brace my subs upside down at the floor in the back Of my extended cab then ports towards seats. I didn't have my rear cab seats in, box was to big. They set about a foot from the floor
Yep just because you don't spend a crazy amount of money doesn't mean that your system can't beat hard, when I got my first setup I had four 15-in Orion Cobalt the black ones and a audiopipe 1500d the first one they came out with at 1 ohm on a kinetic 2400 and it was 147db and then I ended up building that setup same box into a wall and I was hitting 153db and I only spent around $600 with the head unit included because I got the box for free from my friend that had a car audio shop and I got the kinetic battery for next to nothing because I traded a couple pairs of Infinity and MTX door speakers that I've got out of a car the junkyard that were basically brand new but that guy definitely hooked me up, but it ended up getting me on to a car audio team because they seen the passion I have for car audio. It was so much fun, Awesome work bro ty Parker for showing people that you don't have to buy the expensive stuff to have fun. You rock bro.
Those amps are only rated at 2 ohms, but plenty of people run them at 1ohm just fine and they push around 900w at that impedance. I've tried it myself and didn't have any issues. The subs can handle 600-700w each, so it's not even like they were being pushed near their limit here. Many times people are petty criticizing things just because it's easily accessible to everyone. Walmart also sells Goodyear tires and even Iphones, on top of currently selling Kicker and having sold Rockford Fosgate in the past, yet it doesn't mean any of these things are trash. The audio community should be concerned more about how good something is, not where it was bought. When it comes to buying something on a budget but getting surprising quality, I feel like the two kings are Power Acoustik and NVX.
I have been using power acoustik gothic speakers and the power acoustik rzr 2500 watt amp in conjunction with the gothic subs for several years. Price of subs and amp you can't go wrong. Put the power acoustik speakers and subs Product against Product of the same $ I'd go with the power acoustik
Wow! That's so loud bro! Very nice set up i wish i could have a car amp like yours 😢 what song you played in 8mins to 9mins. Thanks bro watching and big fan of yours from Philippines! 🇵🇭
I think that the box is acting more as really leaky sealed box. Maybe you don't care and that's cool but i recommend getting someone to show you how to use winISD or BassBassPro. I know the videos aren't supposed to be scientific but using those programs would help you be more scientific. Technically you don't even need to buy subwoofers and test them because winISD will tell how you which one is louder over the frequency range and any size box. The ports are way to close to the back wall and then they're covered up the seats too. The air is really restricted. I'd be curious to see how much louder you could make it with small changes to the box and aiming the ports up so they can extend from the box and make room for airflow. I would assume port up and subs facing backwards would be the loudest but the subs should have some breathing room too before the back wall if possible. I graph subs on bassboxpro to compare for fun and to see what's up with some of the brands idk much about. Edit: to sound like less of a dick
Hey I really like your videos and would really like some help with my build and advice from you and also if have some requests of what I'd like to see you make a video about. First off I have a 06 dodge ram mega cab that I have been trying to get a custom box built for it to that will fit behind the rear seats and not under, I've found numerous boxes but they are all for a sealed enclosure which is not what I'm wanting. I want a ported/slot box that will be big enough to have the space to add two more subs if I want to later on but right now I only want it for two 12s, the thing is I have to have 7-3/4" mounting depth for the subs I have already which are the skar evl-12d4 and I have the skar rp2000.1 amp that is pushing them for now but getting another amp so the subs can be pushed by their own amp. I have removed all my inside Plastic trim and panels that are factory on every vehicle which I don't care if the back panel that is under the rear window stays removed that's what I had planned for but I would like to possibly be able to put the side trim panels back in if there is any way possible but if not as long as I can make the final design look like it was made at the factory that is great. I know I have a lot of demands and request but I know your audio skills are great so if anyone is able to help me out it's you. With the side panels installed it leaves me with just a little more the 52" from left to right for the box to fit. The thing that is giving me such a hard time is trying to get the internal air space available once the subs are installed and I know there is a method to calculate that by multiplying width by height by length and then divide that by some other number or something like that but the problem Im having is every search I do regarding this only give details for the shape of a square or rectangle box or a wedge shaped box and the box I am needing is neither of those but is similar to the wedge shaped box except that the back of the box on the wedge looks like this ] but mine needs to be like that but not straight up at about around 13 inches or so there needs to be a 90° angle that turns to the front of the box for about 1-1/2" and then a 90° angle turn back up to the top of this makes any sense, I don't know how to describe it with only words and if I could add pictures I'd show you exactly what I'm talking about. The reason the shape is needing to be that way is because at the rear of the cab of my truck below the rear window there is a added brace of sort to give the rear window more support and better structure to the back of the cab and it sticks out from the back of cab towards the front of the truck about 1 inch and that's why I need it to be that shape and with that shape I don't know how to calculate the dimensions to get the over all volume and the subs I have require 2 cubic feet per sub for a ported box tuned at 32hz which is the manufacturer requirements and data. I'd like the ports to be at the top of the box facing the roof but to make things more difficult I'd like to have the port made so that I can but a 90° elbow on the end of the port so that I could have the ports be adjustable with adding either the 90° pvc elbo or maybe a 45° pvc elbo or similar that way it's also changing the tune of the port and hz just a little if this makes sense to you. For example I built a box back in the early 2000s that was in a Suzuki sidekick that was a bandbass style box but all covered except the port which I made out of a 6" PVC pipe and several different 6" PVC fittings to be interchangeable and it would make a big difference with the different type of music I played when changing out the end fitting and I really like that concept and worked really good so it would be perfect if that was possible. If your willing to help me out i would be very thankful and you can direct message me or private message or if I am able to give my email that would be fine to. Thank you again sorry for the novel comment I have made. The ideas for the videos I'd like to see you do would be to possibly do some subs and amps from the app called wish they are very cheap in price and some of the deals you can buy 4 subs for the price of 1 no joke and I'd like to actually see what it is that you build and get please
👍 I got two 2,500 watts power acoustic sub speakers the same ones you have in this video and a 2,500 watt power acoustic amplifier that goes with those sub speakers from Walmart and I can vouch with you that its a good purchase.
My power acoustik amp hit pretty hard. Push two hifonics Brutus 15s and I changed over to the Orion Cobalt amp 7500watt. I do have a small sound clip on my channel recorded it on my way home from work one day
I got one of these power acoustic gothic 12’s in the trunk of my subie with a dual 600 watt amp in a sealed box n it slams!!! I’ll put a video here soon.
I don’t think ppl know how loud 140 really is it’s not easy to get passed 135 so awesome job and on the low even harder I have an on the low Walmart build and it doesn’t make numbers but for one clearance kicker ten a hundred dollar amp and homemade bass tube from pvc waterlines all under onefifty it hits harder than a lot of ppl the Bose stereo helps but it’ll hit lows I thought impossible I’m so happy and suprised by the sound that no one’s hate will kill my smile my set up looks ugly amp is small but it bangs and I’m happy
Anduhh I'm not trying to call you out butuhh I do believe you said $500 at the beginning of the video in $300 at the end of the video butuhh I could be wrong!!!! And of course this is a badass series I'm sure you got them Walmart subs putting it work in that truck I bet it sounds great
I don't have a Facebook account. If you could do UA-cam giveaway that would be awesome. Either way I'm not here for the giveaways Parker, been a member almost two years now. Love, love, love your content!!
Think it would make a difference if the ports were at least 8 inches from the back wall. They are like 2 inches at max from the way it looks. I figure that would at least be noisy but not near enough flow. Have you experimented with this box since?
when did people stop using subflooring or mdf for boxes plywood does not reflect the sound it absorbs it also use liquid nail subfloor instead of regular latex caulk it dries super strong and only 3 dollars a tube at lowes ect.
No bad for an inexpensive build. My 17 yr old nephew wants a system in his 98 accord. We may just do an inexpensive Walmart system like this for starters
Honestly, I found having the subs being mirrored but wired the same made the same effect but smaller box. Then I also invert the subs for even more value of space. Just can't have them in a row like that
Great box 4 12s sounds unreal would like to ask what would u use 1 12" power acoustik gothic or 1 10" x01044 american bass with my razor 2500 just let me know when u can thank you keep up the great show
lmao, i was hitting a 136 in a prefab skar 2 cu ft box on the windshield in an 07 ford explorer on 300 watts clamped with a single base model resilient sounds 12, thats just sad
If y’all get a reply comment saying you won something it is a SCAM! I do my giveaways over on the Facebook page ONLY!
I really appreciate y’all! So close to 65k 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Yessir Finally get to watch it
What amp are you using
Shit i had two 12 n they were knocking pretty good love those subs👍👍👍👍
Smh I got a reply I knew it was a telegram scam
Hey Parker, what if a person doesn’t have Facebook? I don’t
Dude you’re becoming one of the best car audio UA-camrs. Keep kicking ass dude
Really means a lot man! I am definitely trying to do my best
Yessir. I think it’s cool how you are doing the Walmart stuff that anyone can go buy.
anyone can go and buy the top stuff too just save your money not hard
Love this channel. Always doing something different. Thanks for thinking about the new comers we all didn’t start at the top
This series reminds me of the 90's. Im 45 and this is the stuff we did in the 90's!!!! Great Job Parker!! Reminds me of being a teenager again. I'm teaching my boys and they have been loving it.
Lmao
Those ports are too close to the back wall. You generally want the width of the port worth of distance between a port and a wall. But still turned out awesome!
🎯
Yea probably been ok with smaller diameter so they would be shorter, but big ass ports always look super cool 😎
Half the width of the port is as close as u can be to a wall.
It's interesting actually because you can slightly decrease the ports tuning by making it seem longer, by pushing the end of the port close to a wall. You want the port area to be equal to the "folded rectangular area" of... Well, imagine you have a rectangle, and that rectangles length is equal to the port circumference, and the rectangles width is equal to the distance from the port to the wall. That rectangle needs to have the same area as the port area.
This will extend the ports effective length by a few inches or so. Free low tuning!
Yeah I agree I would of put slot ports facing up on each end of box
It's a good thing that you are bringing to light that you can go cheap and achieve great results. For example I have been running two dual brand 12's in a bandpass box on a jvc 600 watt amp for about 13 years now and it still hits around 130db. Keep doing what your doing!

this is awsome. im fixing to build me a box for a rockford fosgate p3 12 for inside my house. i got some polk audio 6x9 i got on sale at walmart. i got 4 of them and i plane to use the 4 6x9 polks and the single rockford fosgate p3 and whatever other speakers and amplifiers i can find to put in it. its basically gonna be a budget car audio/ home audio build for inside the house.
why is it even ported? i have never understood why sealed boxes are so overlooked. forget the port and put a divider in the box to split them into paired chambers. will sound and perform way better.
Port is way to close to the inner wall of box.... Minimum half diameter of port to the wall. Besides that excellent video Parker.
Yea this budget stuff is way more interesting to people I think, who cares or wants to hear about some niche/esoteric subwoofer that no one can afford? it's way more interested to see random cheap subs that can outperform or do something different.

I got the little jenson amp 80w x2 hook up to two 12 inch kicker subwoofers 150w each all from walmart. Banging on a budget
Nice video I had 2 Jensen's 12 from Walmart with the 1200 watt Jensen XDA91RB ya I was trying to bug the neighbors with throwing a third 1 in!!! keep doing what you do.. love the videos just waken up on my birthday today thanks Parker l learned alot from you 👍👍🔈🔉🔊 turn up the bass for me 😜
Those Jensens aren’t half bad. Honestly impressed especially considering their price
I'm the 47 comment, let's see if I can get 47 likes✊🙂✌️
Well you got one like from me!
EPIC wallmart needs to sponsor ya LOL
That would be cool 😂😂
Ok your content is getting better and better and very informal who would of thought Walmart subs could bump this hard! CRAZY!
The rms on those subs is 1200 watts (2400 collectively) The rms on those amps is 650 @ 1ohm (collectively 1300 watts rms). Those subs are severely underpowered! I have two of those Gothic 12" subs in a 6.5 cube, strongly reinforced, box running off an Audio pipe 2500 watt amp (rms 1800) ! The bass is phenomenal! But also the musicality is AMAZING!!!

Is this the series you started 2 years ago with $30 Walmart subs?
Buy the amp sound digital 3000.1 evo 5 and do a video
The people discovering this after all the parts are out
|
V
Amplified music in vehicles is outlawed in my area.
I think that amp would look amazing on my new 09f150 build😎
Ext you should do those Rockville 6x9s. Dude in the groups got ‘em in a corvette putting up numbers. 🤓
I’ve got old ones in the doors right now. They sounds like poop tho 😂
This video shows you don’t have to be rich, you just have to be smart , and put some work in! Good stuff
Still got those dumb rims and tires on that truck.
Next you have to do a Best Buy build
I absolutely loved this series.
I think he's liking those cheap subs over those high dollar one's 💵 🤔
I know you're young so it's hard to think about it right now but if you don't start protecting your hearing you're going to regret it when you're older. Trust me I do. Loud ringing tinnitus 24/7 is not fun.
Im Almost wanting to do a 12s build now
I always heard them gothic subs were pretty good but I must say they might be underpowered? A more powerful amp might help?
Just seeing how you had the areo ports as I’m watching the distance between the back wall to the port isn’t quite ideal you should probably have another inch or two for better air flow just so you don’t get chuffing
I know I thought the ports were to close to that back wall of the box. Thinking it might reduce air flow from the port
@@rickross368 right you would be. It would restrict airflow and mess with air chuffing in the port and even the tuning itself
The fact that I have always loved doing the same sir of thing.. I have rough cut walls, and Parker in my name 😂
They hit hard Parker great job on the video today keep up the great work!!
Honestly, I love these types of videos. It really shows that cheap solutions aren't bad and it shows that they may actually be worth it. Great video sir. 😁 You should definitely do more videos like this :) Have a good day!
Put 4 sundown zv5 12" in this truck.
Those subs sounds better in that box
My 10 inch Rockford fosgate hits harder Bruh
😂😂😂
So crazy even for Walmart build I'm sure you have close to 1k on that system. Good job Parker. Missing the basskity there lol
Giving away a amp n cash and now you get all stingy on plywood, as Joe would say come on man LOL
So... With big ports like that, do you want the orifice of the port tube inside the box to be close to the back wall? Does it tune better like this?
Love to see that smile man glad u could do the testing for us 😂💪💪💯
Walmart has the Power Acoustik BAMF subs too which are a step up, it's too bad yours doesn't carry them.
Those things need a Smart5. I'm running a CAB22 on 2 gothics and they take every bit of it.
The diameter of the port determines how close it can be to the rear wall. Try cutting out some spacers so you can move the ports outwards away from the rear wall you’ll definitely see some gains.
Can you film something at the Sundown show?
Yep I’ll be filming there!!
Sweet.
I appreciate you Justin!!
Nice vidja as always
This is awesome Parker I need win that amp power my 10s my amp to small can't afford big stuff
I just want the amp give the money to someone else!
Parker is this really you or a scam?
I wish I knew I have two brand new ones I would have sold ya 🙄stay up an stay Bassin brother 🔊 🔊 🤙🏼
Entertainment only.
i just subscribed glad i ran across ur channel
Thanks man I appreciate it!!
I hope to see you there
Hey, Man. Say, Man... You are a true genius! Keep Up the Good Work... 💯
This was a stupid test, way to much port area for 1. I HAVE 2 Gothics on 1400w and does a 50 no problems, the glue does stink on these for awhile, but these subs for a pair 1 6 inch port is perfect.
Back in the late 90's early 2k when i was building car-audio, a friend of mine made a bet with some dude that he could take some shit woofers
and outplay his costly system. So we bought 4x10" MDS woofers for 20$ each , i then built a ported box tailored for his Volvo 240GLT with the ports up into the cabin and woofers facing forward, coupled into 2x2 Ohm , powered by an Orion 250HCCA
And to this day, my friend says he has never heard such cheap woofers play that loud and hard.
Hey PARKER u should invert them subs & hook them up to a TRUE 2k or 3k like the smart 3k taramp u have wire them to 1ohm but DO NOT reverse the main line wire from box to amp basically wire them up like they would b if they not inverted meaning normal wire up & take off about 4" of the areo ports and plus roll down both door windows & bet u will love this sound that this will push out then and u may smell alil coil burn & might b able to hit mid 140's db @ roughly range of 35-40 hz???....
I have 3 of them woofers they r inverted built my own box with slot port tuned @ 27hz subs wired to a AUDIOPIPE APMI 2K wired @ 2.67ohm load & it metered @ 142.68db @ 28hz upgraded electrical & 2nd battery 1/0ga wire & i had my bass crew and they were all surprised by my build i only have about 800$ into my setup and i have this in a 97 f150 ext cab with lower seat removed and i have had this setup for 8yrs & they still bumping but ik they say 1200rms but they wont do it i think they r only 750rms...
I had 2 these crappy gothic series wanted to mess around with cheap stuff i had a cab audio 1600.1 put it all in a 04 neon sounded like one would think 90$ per sub 250 amp but still worth the price.
I have 1 12 in a platinum f-150. In a properly built box. 3.15 ported. Port displacement is 1.2. So the box is big. Around 5 cubic feet. Tuned to 30. 144@31hz, 140@25hz clamping 1930 watts. Knowing how to build a box is only way to get results. Manufacturers specs are always wrong. Unless you like 40-50hz. I do not.
Hey Meen ,YOU MUST LOOKING INTO THE CAMERA !!!!! NO IN THE DISPLAY , PLEASE!!!

Dude I watch every video you do I wish I could win something I only have one dual 12 with the MTX 250 what amp I'll keep watching and keep sharing
I have 2 of those with a 1200 Jensen and an other 12 I’m not sure of but I tuned my amp perfectly and all of them together would shake cars from 6+ parking spaces away and I would be watching the truck and there would be paint from the roof flying off but my truck was older it was a 1995 f150 but the subs would shake the steering wheel when i would drive down the road 😂
Have your sins been forgiven today and forever? Think about this. The God of the bible, the One True God made us to worship him, obey him, and enjoy him forever. We break His laws daily by not putting Him first, not thanking Him like we should, we lie, we lust, we have sex before marriage, we dishonor our parents, we covet things other people have, we take God's name and use it in vain, we use it in a low manner, sometimes as a cuss word, (God is holy and even His name is holy), we don't love like we should, etc. In doing so we're saying He's not a good provider, He's a liar, He's untrustworthy, He's not worthy of praise. All these things and more are counted against us. The bible says God is the just judge of the world and one day He will settle the score for all the wrong we've done. God is holy meaning He is righteous (morally perfect in thought, word, and deed) It also means He is set apart and higher than us. God being good, must punish all sin or wrong doing in the world. This means that if you sin one time God will cast you in hell for eternity. Because He is good and He doesn't turn a blind eye to sin. But there is good news. 2000 years ago Jesus the Son of God came into this world and lived a perfect life ( He never sinned once) and He died on the cross taking the wrath that we deserve and paid the penalty for the sins we committed. The bible says that if you will repent (confess and forsake your sins) and trust in what Christ did on the cross (He took the wrath of God that was meant for you and I) then all your sins will be forgiven and when you die you will be in heaven with God and all who believe for eternity. Jesus died and on the third day He rose from the grave. Get right with God today don't wait. Once you die after that comes the judgement. Hebrews 9:27 It's the most important thing you can do. You must be born again John 3:7 If you repent and trust in what Christ did on the cross it shows that you've been born again or born spiritually. Right now you're dead in your sins and you can't see the beauty of Jesus Christ but after you trust in Christ all the things you hate about God like obeying him, serving Him, loving Him and others, reading the bible, praying and going to church you will love to do those things because God changes your heart. That's how you know you have been born again and forgiven. Please think long about this and ask me any questions you have as this is the most important thing you can ever think of in your life. An eternity in hell (darkness and a lake of fire the bible describes it, with weeping and gnashing of teeth) or an eternity out of that place and into the loving arms of God who is infinitely glorious, has infinite knowledge and has infinite power to do all that He pleases. You decide. Have a great day!
My test box before building my center console was 3 cubes, 28hz, single 12in gothic facing to the rear and port up. Had 4 inches of clearance between sub and cab wall.... was hitting just over 136db alone. You box should have been minimal 10 cubes n 30hz for specs correct? The enclosure really makes a difference with these subs.
I know you guy's do car systems and you are amazing. I'm guessing you are also great at house audio. Well, I love music, it's my freedom. I have a portable speaker, Xtra large block rocker. What started happening is the sound would go high then low, repeating over and over. What is causing this to happen? I use a RCA to aux cord connection. Please help me with a solution. Please.
I used to brace my subs upside down at the floor in the back Of my extended cab then ports towards seats. I didn't have my rear cab seats in, box was to big. They set about a foot from the floor
Yep just because you don't spend a crazy amount of money doesn't mean that your system can't beat hard, when I got my first setup I had four 15-in Orion Cobalt the black ones and a audiopipe 1500d the first one they came out with at 1 ohm on a kinetic 2400 and it was 147db and then I ended up building that setup same box into a wall and I was hitting 153db and I only spent around $600 with the head unit included because I got the box for free from my friend that had a car audio shop and I got the kinetic battery for next to nothing because I traded a couple pairs of Infinity and MTX door speakers that I've got out of a car the junkyard that were basically brand new but that guy definitely hooked me up, but it ended up getting me on to a car audio team because they seen the passion I have for car audio. It was so much fun, Awesome work bro ty Parker for showing people that you don't have to buy the expensive stuff to have fun. You rock bro.
It HAD to be that box you built, REALLY opened them subs up, if you would have just gotten another Skar box, no wayyy it would have gotten +140dB
Those amps are only rated at 2 ohms, but plenty of people run them at 1ohm just fine and they push around 900w at that impedance. I've tried it myself and didn't have any issues. The subs can handle 600-700w each, so it's not even like they were being pushed near their limit here.
Many times people are petty criticizing things just because it's easily accessible to everyone. Walmart also sells Goodyear tires and even Iphones, on top of currently selling Kicker and having sold Rockford Fosgate in the past, yet it doesn't mean any of these things are trash. The audio community should be concerned more about how good something is, not where it was bought.
When it comes to buying something on a budget but getting surprising quality, I feel like the two kings are Power Acoustik and NVX.
I have been using power acoustik gothic speakers and the power acoustik rzr 2500 watt amp in conjunction with the gothic subs for several years. Price of subs and amp you can't go wrong. Put the power acoustik speakers and subs Product against Product of the same $ I'd go with the power acoustik
Wow! That's so loud bro! Very nice set up i wish i could have a car amp like yours 😢 what song you played in 8mins to 9mins. Thanks bro watching and big fan of yours from Philippines! 🇵🇭
I think that the box is acting more as really leaky sealed box. Maybe you don't care and that's cool but i recommend getting someone to show you how to use winISD or BassBassPro. I know the videos aren't supposed to be scientific but using those programs would help you be more scientific. Technically you don't even need to buy subwoofers and test them because winISD will tell how you which one is louder over the frequency range and any size box. The ports are way to close to the back wall and then they're covered up the seats too. The air is really restricted. I'd be curious to see how much louder you could make it with small changes to the box and aiming the ports up so they can extend from the box and make room for airflow. I would assume port up and subs facing backwards would be the loudest but the subs should have some breathing room too before the back wall if possible. I graph subs on bassboxpro to compare for fun and to see what's up with some of the brands idk much about.
Edit: to sound like less of a dick
Hey I really like your videos and would really like some help with my build and advice from you and also if have some requests of what I'd like to see you make a video about. First off I have a 06 dodge ram mega cab that I have been trying to get a custom box built for it to that will fit behind the rear seats and not under, I've found numerous boxes but they are all for a sealed enclosure which is not what I'm wanting. I want a ported/slot box that will be big enough to have the space to add two more subs if I want to later on but right now I only want it for two 12s, the thing is I have to have 7-3/4" mounting depth for the subs I have already which are the skar evl-12d4 and I have the skar rp2000.1 amp that is pushing them for now but getting another amp so the subs can be pushed by their own amp. I have removed all my inside Plastic trim and panels that are factory on every vehicle which I don't care if the back panel that is under the rear window stays removed that's what I had planned for but I would like to possibly be able to put the side trim panels back in if there is any way possible but if not as long as I can make the final design look like it was made at the factory that is great. I know I have a lot of demands and request but I know your audio skills are great so if anyone is able to help me out it's you. With the side panels installed it leaves me with just a little more the 52" from left to right for the box to fit. The thing that is giving me such a hard time is trying to get the internal air space available once the subs are installed and I know there is a method to calculate that by multiplying width by height by length and then divide that by some other number or something like that but the problem Im having is every search I do regarding this only give details for the shape of a square or rectangle box or a wedge shaped box and the box I am needing is neither of those but is similar to the wedge shaped box except that the back of the box on the wedge looks like this ] but mine needs to be like that but not straight up at about around 13 inches or so there needs to be a 90° angle that turns to the front of the box for about 1-1/2" and then a 90° angle turn back up to the top of this makes any sense, I don't know how to describe it with only words and if I could add pictures I'd show you exactly what I'm talking about. The reason the shape is needing to be that way is because at the rear of the cab of my truck below the rear window there is a added brace of sort to give the rear window more support and better structure to the back of the cab and it sticks out from the back of cab towards the front of the truck about 1 inch and that's why I need it to be that shape and with that shape I don't know how to calculate the dimensions to get the over all volume and the subs I have require 2 cubic feet per sub for a ported box tuned at 32hz which is the manufacturer requirements and data. I'd like the ports to be at the top of the box facing the roof but to make things more difficult I'd like to have the port made so that I can but a 90° elbow on the end of the port so that I could have the ports be adjustable with adding either the 90° pvc elbo or maybe a 45° pvc elbo or similar that way it's also changing the tune of the port and hz just a little if this makes sense to you. For example I built a box back in the early 2000s that was in a Suzuki sidekick that was a bandbass style box but all covered except the port which I made out of a 6" PVC pipe and several different 6" PVC fittings to be interchangeable and it would make a big difference with the different type of music I played when changing out the end fitting and I really like that concept and worked really good so it would be perfect if that was possible. If your willing to help me out i would be very thankful and you can direct message me or private message or if I am able to give my email that would be fine to. Thank you again sorry for the novel comment I have made. The ideas for the videos I'd like to see you do would be to possibly do some subs and amps from the app called wish they are very cheap in price and some of the deals you can buy 4 subs for the price of 1 no joke and I'd like to actually see what it is that you build and get please
Box critics galore lol.....it's a test box made of plywood....with Walmart stuff...relax people...take a breath
👍 I got two 2,500 watts power acoustic sub speakers the same ones you have in this video and a 2,500 watt power acoustic amplifier that goes with those sub speakers from Walmart and I can vouch with you that its a good purchase.
My power acoustik amp hit pretty hard. Push two hifonics Brutus 15s and I changed over to the Orion Cobalt amp 7500watt. I do have a small sound clip on my channel recorded it on my way home from work one day
I got one of these power acoustic gothic 12’s in the trunk of my subie with a dual 600 watt amp in a sealed box n it slams!!! I’ll put a video here soon.
Damm!!! I've got 2 of those Gothics..I've been thinking about putting 8 of those in a semi ..alot of work ,this video is motivating!!!
I don’t think ppl know how loud 140 really is it’s not easy to get passed 135 so awesome job and on the low even harder I have an on the low Walmart build and it doesn’t make numbers but for one clearance kicker ten a hundred dollar amp and homemade bass tube from pvc waterlines all under onefifty it hits harder than a lot of ppl the Bose stereo helps but it’ll hit lows I thought impossible I’m so happy and suprised by the sound that no one’s hate will kill my smile my set up looks ugly amp is small but it bangs and I’m happy
Anduhh I'm not trying to call you out butuhh I do believe you said $500 at the beginning of the video in $300 at the end of the video butuhh I could be wrong!!!! And of course this is a badass series I'm sure you got them Walmart subs putting it work in that truck I bet it sounds great
I don't have a Facebook account. If you could do UA-cam giveaway that would be awesome. Either way I'm not here for the giveaways Parker, been a member almost two years now. Love, love, love your content!!
Think it would make a difference if the ports were at least 8 inches from the back wall. They are like 2 inches at max from the way it looks. I figure that would at least be noisy but not near enough flow. Have you experimented with this box since?
NOW WE TALKING! I WANNA SEE HOW LOUD WALMART AUDIO CAN POSSIBLY GET WHILE BEING RESONABLE
when did people stop using subflooring or mdf for boxes plywood does not reflect the sound it absorbs it also use liquid nail subfloor instead of regular latex caulk it dries super strong and only 3 dollars a tube at lowes ect.
Love your videos my son and i are bass heads the info provide you is priceless showing love from Peoria Illinois
I'm using two of these subs in a spl box.There they powered by a Brutus 1200 watt amp.I need a bigger amp fr😢
No bad for an inexpensive build. My 17 yr old nephew wants a system in his 98 accord. We may just do an inexpensive Walmart system like this for starters
That shis bumping reminds me of this guy I knew back early 90's had the RadioShack 12's 3 of them and 3 mtx road thunders
Honestly, I found having the subs being mirrored but wired the same made the same effect but smaller box. Then I also invert the subs for even more value of space. Just can't have them in a row like that
I'm still flexing my Wal-Mart sub on the JL Audio 500 watt monoblock right next to my EVL 12" on the Skar 1000.1D.
You connect a real amp to those and youll get waay more db! I really really wanna see what those subs can really do! 👍👍👍
I was playing a Ross song called even deeper and those Walmart subs made my air bag light come on.🤦🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
Great box 4 12s sounds unreal would like to ask what would u use 1 12" power acoustik gothic or 1 10" x01044 american bass with my razor 2500 just let me know when u can thank you keep up the great show
lmao, i was hitting a 136 in a prefab skar 2 cu ft box on the windshield in an 07 ford explorer on 300 watts clamped with a single base model resilient sounds 12, thats just sad
Just imagine how much better those subs would sound with a real amp instead of the junk power acoustic trash 500wt not 2500.1
Send the giveaway amp off with a video, showing the difference from 2 cheap amps vs. 1 good quality amp, using those cheap subwoofers
