That white really pops! I can’t get over how beautiful Ct sounds are
Can’t wait for part 2
Ct sounds all day. I love my tropo 8s all 4 of them lol.
The Sundown was specifically made to fit in enclosures less than 3" deep, that's why it has no vent holes directly in the back and why it is so squat. Just thought I'd fill you in since it was obvious you were hating on sundown. I had a meso 8 and wasn't very impressed but to each their own. 👍🏻
I like CT and what they are trying to do, but the SA is a superior subwoofer. And cast aluminum baskets are much better than "thick" steel baskets. I feel like he is just fanboying CT now, a little disappointed.
@@RJayRabbit no hate to him but he is a CT sounds fanboy which that's okay but I mean 85% of his videos are about CT sounds products that's why I really quit watching them and if you try telling them that CT sounds is off the shelf parts he just doesn't understand what companies do nowadays unless you originally build everything from the ground up skars and off the shelf company CT sounds and I'll show company and meaning that their stuff's catalog they take other parts from overseas off a shelf and build a subwoofer they don't design it from the ground up which that's okay a lot of companies don't do that nowadays there's only maybe a handful of them and sundown is still one of them companies
@David_rios CT is like the new Hifonics/Audiopipe lol. Thier amps are absolute shit
Sundown has cooling, it’s just not in the motor, it’s between the spider and motor. These are designed as a shallow mount subwoofer. The lack of cooling in the motor allows it to mount directly against the back of the box. So, this isn’t apples to apples between the Sundown and CT Sounds Meso.
Thank you for the video 👍🏻
Aww, it's so cute!
Sundown is single slug motor 5with no pole vent so it can be bottomed out in a shallow box. I'm not a fanboy or brand loyal but I've owned SA-12d4's and they were the best subs i've ever owned.
I had an expiring coupon so I used your link last night to grab a pair of d4 6.5 Meso's. They'll be going in the back of an AMC Eagle wagon on a Jensen xda91rb lol. They'll be in the the rear speaker locations with some spacer rings and some quick fiberglass work/enclosures. I'm not sure how they'll do sealed, we'll see though.
Hey, that's awesome! typically, they will bw more punchy sealed but may not llay as low
I've had both brands and neither should be underestimated
Which brand has cleaner and softer thumping bass? CT Sounds, DD Audio or JL Audio?
@@markfrederick5012 I mean JL would probably be the go to if you're looking for clean bass if willing to pay JL prices but personally I would run CT or DD any day over JL. Again just my opinion
@@clipciti6977 i just want clean bass like JBL and soft thumping like Sony xplod, do you know what brand sound like that clean and soft? I am not just looking for clean sounding sub, i have a JBL, the bass is clean but it doesn't thump soft like Sony xplod'
When I ordered my 6.5 it didn't come with anything just a box. the speaker's, I didn't get a manual . decals nothing😪😪
You should try savard 6.5s, and for budget 6.5s try audio legion
Awwwwwwwww those are so cute
Lil tip. The way the terminals are mounted makes it almost impossible to get in the box. Take a small screwdriver and put it in the terminal and turn it clockwise 90°. Makes it so much easier!
Ive seen others cut small grooves in the box. I thought about doing that
@@ATCA Ya that's a good idea. It was super easy to just turn it tho.
Nice. Thanks
@@ATCA or buy a sub that's actually designed by intelligence
@@SheikhN-bible-syndrome i dont know what you mean. I dont want you to regret this comment..
You should do a comparison between the tropo 8 and the fierce 8 toro tech
Link?
For a car audio only looking for quality sound which 6.5 subwoofer do you recommend me? I'm looking ante CT sounds (toro and meso) or the Toro
Definitely CT Sounds
According to the t/s parameters the sa6.5 has twice the motor force of the tropo6.5 even though the motor looks smaller.
Yes. We welt over that on live one day. Doesn't make a difference tho. They model the same it likely has a stiffer spider to stop it from bottoming out, which it still does
Cant wait to see the 2nd video! We all know the Meso is on another level and should smoke them both but I’m very curious about the Sundown vs Tropo since they are similar in price . I’m Currently working on a box for my Pro xp rzr and will be using 6.5 sub, just not sure what brand yet .
I think the biggest consideration is the cost. Im still working on design an enclosure that'll work decent for all 3 woofers. I can tell you, on paper the sundown is slightly better. But it cost $30 more. The meso is only $10 more than the sundown. Its gonna be a ceap shoot
@@ATCA you are correct. I hadn’t looked at current pricing until after I made that comment. I think for anyone using just 1 of these it’s gonna be a no brainer to spend a few extra bucks and get the meso. I guess if your looking at buying 2-4 of these then the small price difference would add up quick. Luckily I need just one. But If I could find a deal on a pair I wouldn’t mind having just 1 6.5 in a tuned box for my Jeep as well.
@@davidb8231 are you on yhe Facebook group?
@@ATCA No sir. No Facebook for me .
@@davidb8231 tragic
I'm interested in how they work as door speakers. I was thinking about doing that as rear fill with an active front stage
Its not a speaker its a subwoofer. Meant to play like 120hz and down.
Don't play vocals well. But im going to add it as a sub
That's what I was thinking. I like my big subs tuned low but that usually sacrifices some of the kick on higher frequencies
If I get the 12s CTsound will I need a second battery?
Depends on the power
Could those be mounted in a door along with two mid range speakers?
Theoretically. That's what I'm doing
I would be interested in a 4th order Box for the Meso
Oooh
Ctsounds for life
You should see if you can get a sundown x 6.5
It looks like they were all manufactured in the same factory.
Honestly the tropo is far closer to the sundown E series as I had both the E10's and tropo 10's and they were literally identical in every single way other than the color and the name stamped on them...
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
@@ATCA well seeing how highly sundown is praised I would say that it is a good thing, to be able to buy an identical woofer that costs less yet performs the same is never a bad thing lol-ol-ol
@@kevinAuman1 absolutely!!
Why didn't you test the Sundown X6.5?
I mean. If you want to buy them and send them to me.. i am just able to test what I actually purchase.
@@ATCA lol. I would if I could, mate. Not so easy from Africa.
I just bought myself 4 x 6.5 subs for my hatchback to save on boot space so I'm watching everything I can on 6.5 subs. 😁
@@n.t.kusema for sure. I'm trying to get couple other sets to try too
Just installed 4 tropo 6.5s. Terminals stick out too far and make installing in the box a real pain. Also the sundown has more motor force.
Than the tropo? Im my pt 2, ill go in depth from all 3 woofers. Cost vs performance
@@ATCA the sundown has like twice the bl
@@ah4800 8 vs 13. I see that now. I van actually pull all of these specs with my DATS if i really wanted to
@@ATCA 8+8=13? Got it 👍 good to know
@@SheikhN-bible-syndrome thats your math. Not mine, my guy
Wheres part 2?
On my channel
Sundown is definitely more premium than the tropo
2 things i don't like about the tropo 6.5 is the basket design and they should have went with push terminals.
Definitely agree
Push terminals are a industry standard now why cheap out.
Ct for the win 👑 #teamctsounds
No push terminal no good.
I wouldn't say that. Theres a lot to consider here
@@ATCA just my stong opinion because I detest hooking up those kind of terminals. Always seems like a crappy connection
@@shawnsanderson3695 for sure
@@shawnsanderson3695 its also a baby sub
Size isn't everything I'm sure your girlfriend already told you that Trevor Moon you want to spend some real money and compare some real subwoofers try the Night Shade Version 6, good luck with CT Sounds.
Lmao
Lighten up bud I think your channel is great and informative I'm just trying to spark up some healthy debate,nothing personal my friend keep doing what your doing brother much love.
Sundown Audio sucks. Stick with the CTs
You are absolutely entitled to your opinion, as am I. Bro you have no idea about car audio making that statement
Better than swallowing.
@@chrismcgill4372 which brand has cleaner and softer thumping bass? CT Sounds, DD Audio or JL Audio?
