    It is one thing to get the rated power on the SMD AD-1 Amp Dyno, which is pure torture to an amp in itself. But when you hook up an amp to the AMM-1 and do a REALTIME test, on speakers, it is much more realistic. When subwoofers (any speaker for that matter) move, the impedance rises which causes the amp power to change dramatically depending on how much rise there was during testing and of course what frequency. I really wanted to just test the box itself but it ended up being an AMP test also! WOW! Great little amp and very nicely priced too!
    I did make the mistake of thinking it was a 1,000 watt single subwoofer, preloaded box...i think the model number SDR-1K12D2 made me automatically think that without looking. The SDR 1k12D2 is in fact a 600 watt RMS box, says so right on the side! DUH! well it took a lot more than that! Sounded funny but after cooling it seemed to be not so bad...but i think i did damage it. That is OK, i replaced it with an SVR 12D2 which is 800w rms / 1600w peak sub. And now, it is time to find out who get's it...
    If you want to win this combo, just watch the video and see how. Thanks for watching!

    Whats up. This is Mike Anderson. I live about an hr and a half north of sac in Red Bluff. I haven't had a system in years and a rescent install in my daughters '98 passport got my juices flowing again. She's running a Skar sdr-10 dvc-4. The amp i got her is crap but wanna experiment first. The 1200watt skar amp in this video would pair perfectly for her whole system.

But interestingly in the past month I was looking at different subs and Skar audio was one of the options because it has a great price and relativly good reviews. If I were to win It would save us lot of money and time spent designing the ported box.

It doesn't sound as good as the Alpine Type r's I had, but I did pay a lot more for them. Skar audio is perfect for me. Since I have become a father I am constantly having to ball on a budget.

I was so disappointed. I bought another one after that happened. And my friend was in need of an amp, I let him borrow it cause my car was in the shop at the time. Ive known him for years, He was supposed to give it back when he got a new amp. I haven't seen him since that day. I guess he got his new amp huh? What a friend...

    Its Steve and Sara from Middletown Pennsylvania, Bought a 2006 Nissan Xterra from my sister, with blown speakers. Replaced the two front speakers with some cheap Pyle 6.5 component sets. I just turned 40 this year, and after replacing the door speakers it brought me back in time when I was totally into car audio systems. Another reason I want this set up is to prove my Best Friend there is nothing wrong with the Skar system. I've been looking at this speaker and Amp for weeks and weeks. I know they preform great, but he just don't have the faith. My best friend is comparing the Skar to his JL W13. The only reason I haven't purchased it yet is due to lack of funds, but when I do get a amp and sub, I still have my 4 Gauge wire and remote cables still from 22 years ago.

    So, I’m from Cozad, Nebraska.
    I drive a 1984 Chevy S10 single cab long box. I pieced together a budget system for it with three alpine 10” type s shallow subs, hifonics amp in a custom enclosure to the specs available behind the seats. Wired to 1 ohm. It absolutely pounds. My wife very rarely rides in my pick up as it doesn’t have AC. I took her on a date night a couple months back and she fell in love with the stereo. Now she wants one in her 2009 Chevy HHR.
    Unfortunately, I’ve been laid off during the Covid pandemic. So I’ve been unable to get anything put together for her as we’re surviving on her income alone. Just trying to feed our 7 year old and not get evicted. If I was to win this, I’d surprise her with it installed in her car and win husband of the year. Love the videos sir. Keep up the good work.

    Just bought one of these scar loaded boxes. Only running on a cxa400 Wich is doing about 600 watts at 1ohm. Sounds really good. Even if sub doesn't last I love the box and I'll throw in a kicker R . Because I have a new one laying around. But so far I love it.
