I picked up my box yesterday from MB. I was able to talk to him learn even more about car audio from examples he gave to me and friend of mine. Knowledge is key and he gives it freely. Great to talk with you MB.
Another informative video MB!!! I've learned so much from you in the last 4 months. I'm very appreciative of the info and demos you provide for us on your channel. Thank you so much and please continue the amazing work!!! God bless you and your craft. ✌
I just picked up my first B2 Amp Zero 7.r and I can’t wait to pair it with a B2 sub. I love this channel bro ur very informative and videos are excellent.
Can't wait to see this in a box! I'm aware of B2 but hadn't really considered them until now. An 8" with that big a spider, that much motor force, AND high sensitivity? That thing looks badass!
Them things sound amazing on a b2 2500v2 amp. I've been looking at b2 for awhile, they make great products and there amps are beautiful. SWEET LIKE DANISH!!!!
I have two of the B2 audio Rampage 15’s and love them! They handle way more then listed and sound absolutely great! Loud clean bass in the right enclosure! Great video MBE! 👍🏾👍🏾
I have 2 sets they sound as good as the new alpine status I have. I will say the crossover look and are higher quality than the b2 mani 3 ways but that's about it
I picked up a deal on a couple of these B2, Rage XL 12s. These B2 subs make my other subs, like my JL W6 s look like kids toys.... there REDICULOUS . :)
I agree, B2 is not being pushed as hard in the US. And only 1 dealer/Distro I know is SHCA. And they are way to picky for small shops becoming dealers.
Seismic Audio SA-LAF122 12" sub has a sensitivity rating of 91db. I bought one and built two different enclosures for it. I powered it with a Skar Audio RP1500. It was in the trunk of my 2015 Chrysler 300S. It sounded amazing. I built an L Port first but I just didn't care for the sound. It was tuned to 32 hz and it was 2.2 cubic feet. I then built a sealed enclosure at 1.8 cubic feet and I loved it. I'm just not a fan of the ported sound. It got plenty low and it was clean and loud. It cost me $150 off Amazon. I sold it to a friend cuz the box and the woofer was too heavy for my car. It's lowered and I live in LA where the potholes swallow F250's. I just got two American Bass XD1044'S. I still have the Skar RP1500. I gotta build a box for them. MBE!!! Love what you do man. Real recognize real. We happy for ya down here in the N.O. man!!! PEACE!!! ✌ ☮
Just for a little context, a number of 12" subs have a higher sensitivity rating like the seismic you mentioned, as it's not as difficult to achieve in that size platform & voice coil.(12's generally have a 2 1/2 in voice coil or larger) Pushing higher power levels through a smaller woofer chassis efficiently is a much greater engineering challenge. Most of the 8"s I've seen on this channel are considered pretty good between 80-84db, which is why he was impressed with this one being rated at 86db with a 2 in voicecoil.
They should be able to handle more than 1000 for sure. I have 2 groundzero 8in 20xspl rated at 700 but taking at least 1500 each powdered by 3k dc18 hooligan amp and without bottoming out like the 8in dc m3s I had before.
Yes,I have 2 of the skar 8's,the 900w.i also have the skar 2k pushing them in the armored skar boxes. I'm always getting asked (how many 15's do you have in there) love my skar 8's
@@jirismanns9049 only if they recommend around .5 cuft per sub, because the port will take up at least 1-1.5 cuft as well. MB will recommend only 2 subs to maximize the space. I have a 3 in. lift on my seat (2018 f150) and running 2 subs. He built my box and man it hits Low AF. I previously ran 4 CT Meso 8's in a 3 cuft. box and could not get it tuned low enough to listen to music i like. If you listen to music in the 40hz & up, then go with 4 and you'll still be happy.
Love all the videos man so much I’ve learned! Could you make a video detailing your personal favorite subwoofer brands? Been looking around for loud, quality woofers
No they aren’t, they are 800, and these rampage 8s are 900 w rms, but these subs fuckin pound, I got one running on an excelon xr1001-1 at 1000w rms, 2000 peak, and the shit slams
@@BenaresDarkness they are 800 rms, 1600 peak..the b2 is 900 not 1000 either..I have the b2 rampage 8s, and if u go google the x8 my word they are rated for 800 rms..my word, and in no way am I Tryin to talk shit btw
Wanted a x26 for a while just not in my budget. Nice stuff they make though love the reference series stuff. They only have 1 distributor in the US I think a shitty one at that 😆
Have you ever looked at the Ampere AA-2.5 RVE 8 inch? Curious about your thoughts on those. Still working on making you a review video for the 2 Toro's in the box you made me. Just finished breaking in the subs and man do they go hard!!
Do you recommend this subs for all types of music? I have a gmc sierra crew cab that i would like to add a system and lately i been looking at this rampage.i have a crescendo symphony 2500...I'm into SQL any recommendations ?
@@M.B.Enclosures I love you B2 audio the look of their woofers are amazing and they got some great engineering going on I wish that they would have done what digital design has done with their 8 as far as making the eight an actual eight
Good stuff MB very informative in all your videos been thinking about getting these B2 8’s can’t wait to see you put them in a box and hear what you have to say 💯
Been looking forward to this.. I know about their mids and highs but nothing about their subs.. I am concerned about the displacement though.. .11 is a lot for an 8.. that more then most 12’s which come in around .07 +\-. But 86+ in an 8 that takes 1k.. there is potential here but this is hands down gears for spl.. But the displacement with other things tells me you got to throw these in a sealed box or have a massive ported box.. if you going with 8’s you are doing so cause you don’t have the space.. I se these needing a box similar to a 10 and some 12’s so it’s kinda a sub looking to solve a problem that doesn’t exist. Why out a single 8 in a box thar could hold two 12’s? Just doesn’t make sense to me.. Seem to be spl comp only type design based on everything. Now fs of 38 will help it some for box size in sq applications.. as will the efficiency.. but no where near enough to justify the price, displacement and power levels.. No doubt it bangs but I’d take a lot of others not as good for less where I can double them up in same size box and same power as a single.. cone area is king and they seemed to forget this building this sub..
Fs is actually 36 Hz. The space it takes up is based on external dimensions. However if you look at the SAFT basket, it has a good flow of air and is an open design. So the displacement is actually less.
That sub looks like an 8 on steroids lol a few months ago I was thinking about getting a pair of those but we’re I live at I have some sensitive ass neighbors that call the cops for everything.

i like how hes talking holding the blade of the knife
B2 is one of my favorite subwoofers, right behind PSI.
Side by side comparisons of your round sub collection would make for an awesome video!
Very nice looking subwoofer, that sensitivity is definitely impressive. Got to pass the MBE test first! Keep up the good content.
Absolutely Noooooo One Ever did a B2 AUDIO 8 inch Review Full Breakdown Ever ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank U
My guy @miguel j did review of them playing, and outta the box, and i posted mine too..
B2 audio and pride audio are two brand's that are extremely good equipment
What box would you think best for 2003 Crew cab chevy truck
I have the twelves and they hit and the bass is clean low and crisp
What we really want to know which one is going to be the victor… Q Class or Rampage 8? 🤔
I got to hear the 3 way set they offer and they aren't budget perfect but Sq is astonishing! May have to get a set... 👍
Reference series is phenomenal
I have 2 sets they sound as good as the new alpine status I have. I will say the crossover look and are higher quality than the b2 mani 3 ways but that's about it
Yeah, just saw someone mention Tang Band, I would like to see your review on one of their 8" subs.
I picked up a deal on a couple of these B2, Rage XL 12s. These B2 subs make my other subs, like my JL W6 s look like kids toys.... there REDICULOUS . :)
What enclosure recommendations?
I have 2 B2 RAMPAGE 12D1 and they slap something nice and they're underpowered too
J Holmes is an amazing dude we are very good friends!
Just bought my Rampage XM 4 15” today 🥹
B2 audio 15 inch rage v2 or dc audio level 4 15 inch plz help thnks
B2 audio 8 inch (NOT the "RAGE" But the "XM" Model is the Greatest & the Best Pound for Pound Period )
Rampage 8 for the winnnnnn

Great video as usual those look like ct sounds subs
Ct copied B2 before it was known as CT. Back when it was audio technix. In addition this is as mentioned a proprietary basket and design.
@@jayholm9623 I'm right ok thanx
@@CRXUGLYKID you are welcome. Sorry if I came off a bit sore lol.

Was that sensitivity rating based on 1W or 2.83 V?
I was wondering the same thing
@@alonzofoster519 based on the fact that the 2 ohm version is 3 db less efficient, I'm almost certain that it's 2.83 volts
So if it were based off 1w would it be around the same db or even less than the d2 configuration?
@@alonzofoster519 yeah, at 1W they should be pretty similar.
I was curious bc I noticed the massive hippo 84 had a sens of 88db/2.8v
