This is a comparison review between rockford forgate punch and the skar audio ddx. Non scientific review. amzn.to/3HnOZVg "Rockford" amzn.to/3Xyx2sv "Skar"
Um looks like the skar sub is in a skar pre fab enclosure and the RF is in a pre fab enclosure. Also the skar is ported, is the RF's enclosure ported? I know RF makes what's called a slam box for that 10 and it's ported. Also what wattages were going to each? And a p2 was used. The p3 can take more wattage. I mean if your gonna compare apples at least make it fair. Just my opinion this is inconclusive.
Question. I have a 12" p2 and have a 12" P3 on the way. Theyre gonne be in separate boxes Should i run individual amps or can i run em off the same amp?
@@pvtpelnar11 Sure may be, however what I said was RF was not in a ported enclosure and if it was it's score would have been higher than the existing scores we saw.
@@driftx2 that's cuz Rockford is much more mainstream and will known. That's plenty of good skar speakers that blow Rockford out of the water and there's alot of sub manufacturers that are high quality that best buy doesn't sell to because they are not known but 90 percent of the population (DC audio, deaf bonce, American bass, psi audio)
@@driftx2 thats the dumbest shit I EVER heard......he said Best Buy!! LMMFAO🤣🤣🤣🤣 There are so many high end car audio brands out there and just because Best Buy doesn't sell them does NOT mean they are a shit brand....NOT BY FAR DUDE!!!
Kumar why didn't you use a Rockford Fosgate Punch 3 "10" Subwoofer instead of the Rockford Fosgate punch 2 Subwoofer. That's not a fair test. Let's see you the P3 "10" against that skar Subwoofer?.
ddx is good for one thing loud and cheap - its good enough for most people - the rockford is for those who wanna listen to theyre music everyday ie: sounds better - but its box dependant
I have 2 p3s in my suv and also kicker 6x8 x4 with another amp on those and to top it off I got a capacitor. Went to sound contest ND before I tuned the amps because I had them way low ND still hit 135 dbs
@@johnviera3884 Skar rp1500...I have a video of it on just 800 watts shaking my whole car if u wanna look on my channel...either way, what does it matter what kind of watts 🤡
@@johnviera3884 one more note...go look at any video of any skar amp...they are known to put out rated power, just like Rockford...u can also watch other people do videos on the ddx or any skar for that matter and watch how good they are...sorry buddy but u are just paying for the name with Rockford fosgate...not saying they're bad but u can find many others for literally half the price that do just as well if not better
What a ridiculous comparison a P1 vs DDX. A P1 is an entry level sub at entry level power. The skar is more competition sub or an SPL SUB Rockford is more of a SQL sub.
The Fosgate is a $170 subwoofer, the DDX is a $136 subwoofer. The DDX has a 85.2db Sensitivity Rating, whereas the Fosgate only has a 84db Sensitivity Rating. So, at 1 watt, from 1 meter away, the DDX is 85.2 decibels. The Fosgate, at 1 watt, from 1 meter away, produces 84 decibels. And, the DDX can handle much more power, even though it's still louder on the same amount of power as well. So, even though the DDX is $34 cheaper, it is more efficient, louder on LESS power, BUT it can still handle MORE power as well, all while being $34 cheaper.
The thing is though, that you are wrong.. lol. The Fosgate is a $170 subwoofer, the DDX is a $136 subwoofer.

So, even though the DDX is $34 cheaper, it is more efficient, louder on LESS power, BUT it can still handle MORE power as well, all while being $34 cheaper. This comparison, is actually NO comparison, lol. I used to dog on Skar HARD, but after actually getting a few of their products.. they're straight BULLYING the game. Which is awesome, because people can get some serious thump without having to go broke. Same thing for Taramps, badass amps, great prices, and help provide some serious thump on the low as well.
@@whatta7793 see this is where you are wrong and your idiocy shows. If you're going to compare a scar 1000 watt speaker to a Rockford speaker then you need to compare it to the Power T1 10, not the punch which is a much lower rated speaker. Like I said it would blow the scar out of the water since you would be comparing two equal speakers. Not to mention the sound quality of the Rockford is 10 times that of Scar. If you're going to do an equal comparison do it right. Also the MSRP on the scar is $259.99 they are just on sale right now due to the low quality. You can learn that by supply and demand. When something is not in high demand the price drops. When something is in high demand they never have a big sale. This is where you're supposed to do your research before you try to trick Everyone by comparing two unequal speakers. Also remember it's not about how many decibels a speaker produces but it is the sound quality at those decibels that matter the most
@@whatta7793 you are the one showing it. see I just went and looked at scars price before I posted that comment. You evidently have not looked at their website. The MSRP on the scar woofer is 259.99. And if you look under that they have had to reduce the price on that woofer twice
I believe the Rockford is a much better sounding more reliable speaker than the skar. And i doubt that skar can handle that much power im willing to bet they both handle about the same amount. Also if you want to compare them then do it in the same enclosure we all know the enclosure plays a big part on output and sound quality.
By that comment that tells me you obviously do not know anything about Skar Audio and what you're talking about. Go on here and find some video's by typing in Skar Audio bench test Steve Meade.
Funny bc I've had the skar ddx 12 and 15 and they take above rated power...the owner of Sundown audio helped design the ddx series, that's why it looks so similar to the Sundown SA series
@@trickedoutequinox3265 for $130 (for the 10") there is absolutely NO speaker that can compare. Hands down is the BEST budget speaker, or rather the one that give you the highest return for your money. I didnt hear that Sundown assisted in the design, however I DO know that when the DDX was created that SKAR was working out of the same warehouse as Sundown and that they use the same distributor for parts mor or less. Which caused a big scuffle and Skar to leave and move down to Florida.
That was sad the scar out performed the rocksford The scar produced more decibels which is better That's sad when rocksford can't hold up to it's name like the saying goes you're just buying A name look for quality not a name Funny thing I bought a dual SD12 not the 1 with the orange stamp on it And I ran A 900 watt amp On it I thought the speaker was going to blow up with this much power It lasted for a whole 2 months Before it blew I was Surprised that lasted that long before the coil went out it was cheap for a Wal-Mart speaker but I liked how long it lasted
it says a lot about Skar when their lowest performance sub, SDR bangs harder than a p2 for half the price.. A DDX is equivalent to a Power T1 fosgate, but the fosgate sub is approx 3-400$ more.

Why not bolth ported or sealed for equal playing ground
the box helps 90% of the resonance of the bass. the test should have been done on the same box
Speakers needs to be in their own box design for the soeaker
Do your country a favor and Buy Rockford you won't be disappointed
Why not the p3 model to make rms rating equal ,I think the p3 would outperform the ddx

Definitely not. Skar has a massive motor and can push way more power.....

You down gradedd
you need a box that the subs are designed for
fun video and to see that you still respect the fosgate after being 1/4 of a sub that the skar is says alot
Not a fair comparison. Should've reviewed the P3 or T1
Facts
100% fair comparison. He’s showing the bang for your buck. RF gonna be overpriced dollar to dollar
P3 or t1 cost a bit more...
@@landonjarrett1800It’s not overpriced if it outlasts everything else comparable in wattage
@@brendenperry3770 wattage doesn’t necessarily mean clean though. But I definitely get what you’re saying
These two subs are not in the same class.
You can’t compare two speakers in two completely different types of enclosures
That ddx is only like 130 on Skar’s website
Not really because the rock Ford box isn't ported like the scar that's an improper test bro try it again the write way
1500 watts skar vs 300 p2. Wy mot compare 1500 watts skar vs 1200 watt t2. But why mot compare to t2 13" its only 500 watts more than the skar.
Bruh. Put them in the same exact box and give them the same power (500 watts)
Then post a video
If you like your DDX don’t feed it more than 1000 watts.

I've have both skar and rocksford subs skar does out perform them. Rocksford was the old Era. Alot has changed in audio
whats wrong with the volume?
Ported will always be louder I've had both subwoofers in a ported box the punch sounded better and more accurate
I have to replace my nemesis 12 guess I will try skar I've read great reviews on them.
Love the video bro
I’m going to put a ddx in my skar prefab enclosure
This was an unequal test. Should have been the P3.
