Re-livin the glory days

Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2012

Style: 12-inchVerified Purchase

UPDATE:
I wired these 8 Ohm and hooked them up to a bookshelf unit to break them in. I played 2 cd's each evening at very low volume for a week before finally hooking them up in the car. I just gotta say it again ... "WOW" ..., I've been pounding these for a month now and I am not the slightest bit sorry for purchasing them. They are currently hooked up to Lanzar VIBE241 Vibe 1000 Watt 2 Channel Mosfet Amplifier and secured in a custom cut faceplate with the rear of the speakers in the crawl through space of the trunk. With the back seats down (passenger compartment = box "free-air") and kickin it to Skrillex Scary Monsters And Nice Sprites EP [Explicit ] I reached 127 peak decibel(c) on the Fuloon Digital Sound Pressure Level Meter 30 ~ 130 dB Decibel USB Noise Measurement . These speakers are well worth their weight (17 pounds) in any currency and a steal of a deal at these Amazon.com prices. Thank you Amazon and Lanzar! I added 2 more stars because I have never owned sound like this!

-------------------- original----------------------
The last time I bought stereo equipment was back in 1996 when I purchased a pair of Lanzar Street Base SB129 12" 800watt subwoofers at a mass liquidation sale. Those subs were always underpowered by a California Profile A600XL amp, but they still pounded the pavement just fine in an '83 Olds Cutlass. As I find myself entering the realm of midlife crisis, and with todays economic budget not allowing the purchase of a new cherry red Corvette convertible (cliche), I thought stereo upgrade would be a good hobby to boost my outlook. I installed those ancient subs in my 2006 Kia but managed to fry my old amp. I picked up a used Lanzar VIBE241 Vibe 1000 Watt 2 Channel Mosfet Amplifier and bridged one sub mono... Ok but too much power (amp 1000watt peak to sub 800watt peak). I cut a face plate to support both subs and ran them on individual channels as "free air" leaning the plate against the crawl through. WOW! I didn't realize the stereo thumping life I could have had during college had I picked up a bigger amp. I was hooked to the "good 'ol glory days". So, I checked out subwoofers and saw these Lanzar MAXP124D Max Pro 12-Inch 1600 Watt Small Enclosure Dual 4 Ohm Subwoofer and purchased them without checking any reviews here on Amazon because my old Lanzar subs pound insane (wow, some of those reviews concern me now). Impulsive buy became compulsive with the purchase of a new Lanzar DCT425 4000 Watt 4 Channel Full FET Class AB Amplifier and the Lanzar VIBEX6 Vibe 3 Way Electronic Crossover Network with Remote Subwoofer Control Of course, I haven't installed any of these components yet, because I am still savoring the sound of those old subs while awaiting additional components and deciding how to install all of this equipment in a compact trunk.

Now for the preliminary review:
-Shipping, nothing like FREE 2 day from order to delivery, of course ordered 2AM Saturday morning meant not to deliver until Tuesday. I was paranoid at 5 pm on Tuesday, but they arrived at 6:10PM. 2 business days so fair deal (4*)
-Packaging, delivered as a pair in an oversized box with loose paper fill. A couple of creases are apparent on the individual boxes, but no significant damage (4*)
-Craftsmanship, I like the terminal connectors because they are rigid mounted (solid) with allen locking screws and 2 inputs on each voicecoil for either 2 or 8 ohm impedence connecting both together and still able to send wiring from the sub to the external terminal, however, polarity is marked by red coloring inside the allen head which could disappear over time or if all 4 screws come out, they could get put back in the wrong order. It would be nice to have + or - embossed on the terminal blocks. Speaker number one appears concentric for all ring surfaces, however, speaker number 2 has some issues where several rings are skewed and not concentric. This is cosmetic and shouldn't affect performance. (3*)

I like the addition of the rubber magnet boot on todays subwoofers. it is much easier to remove metal debris that may come in contact with the magnet. The composite OD ring is wrapped around the basket lip so we don't need to worry about the front ring separating from the face of the basket. Overall, these look much better constructed than my old SB129's and the new Boss P126DVC Phantom 12-Inch Subwoofer Dual 4-Ohm Voice Coils I picked up to add to my system just because I like the Phantom image (that's so chic). Call me crazy, but more is better...right? When all is ready to go, I may just have to buy a vehicle with more trunk space. This is my first time using Dual voicecoils, so I may wind up like those other poor reviews in the end. Back in the day, I was warned to avoid dual voicecoils because of the problems experieced when both coils aren't powered in sync vs the stability of a single coil. I hope to be able to improve this review in the future.

Not worth the time!

Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2024

I bought a pair of these like eight years ago and I thought these were comparable to my Cerwin Vega and Peavey units. I could not complain at all !

Fast-forward to my recent purchases!
I purchased 3 of these in a year and a half.
The first one, one of the coils burned in a few weeks but the sound was so good I said that I would get a warranty replacement and purchase another pair and wait for the replacement unit and use it for a spare. Got the replacement unit and in 3 weeks specifically, one of the connections to the coil underneath the cone broke off on one of the new ones.
I contacted Pyle support and let them know what was happening even offered a solution to the problem.

They told me that, to make another replacement, I'd have to shoulder the shipping costs for their warranty replacement!
With the cost of the 3 purchases, I've crossed the threshold for a Cerwin Vega unit and landed in the Peavey units arena.

I'll chalk this up to a loss and stick to my Cerwin Vega and Peavey units! I hardly damage those despite all the pressure I put on them.
If I could give these new units a 0 I would!

Better then 2 Kicker Comp R 12"s

For $50 I hooked up this single 12 to the Lanzar Heritage 3000 Watt amp pushing 800 watts wired at 2 ohms, this one sub has about as much bass and at times deeper then the two Kicker Comp R 12's i had with the same amp, same ported box yes one Lanzar 12 in a duel ported T Line ground shaker box and same settings actually had the amp turned up more with the two kickers. very impressed with the performance of just the one im for sure getting another to really here the deep bass that I need and maybe another amp to make sure the speakers get fed the proper wattage they are hungry for. Ive been a big fan of kickers for around 7 years they never let me down but I went back to the old skool name Lanzar i dont know why i didnt do this kind of setup before,

I'm not too sure with how much power these can truly handle but I have been using about 500w RMS with no problems. A huge downside with these subs is they take an insane amount of volume in order to get a proper tuning with the enclosure. I strongly recommend getting a box tuned to the low 30s and with as much volume as possible. when in the right box these things can produce some nice bass. With that said, the airspace requirements and packaging of the sub is primarily what makes me want to give it only 4 instead of 5 stars.

great sub /great value

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2014

Style: 12-inchVerified Purchase

I bought this for my son as his entry level sound system. I noticed a lot of people questioning the Lanzar name in the reviews. I have been familiar with Lanzar since the early '90s. It's a brand you would only find at a stereo shop not a large retailer. Anyway, back to the sub, I cannot imagine that you could get more sub performance verse money spent anywhere. Omg, I only paid $44 bucks for the dang thing. We put it in a small box we already had and it sounds great. It's very punchy at what I am guessing is about 60ish hertz. It hits lows too but the box we are using is not optimal for the lower frequencies. I am pushing it with a Lanzar HTG157 monoblock amp and we also installed a 1.6 farad Lanzar cap. I think all three items were barely $150. Couldn't be happier.

2 for my wife's truck and 2 for mine Out of the 4 one quit working too bad I waited so long to hook them up past the 30 day warranty to send them back it cost $20 for shipping no guarantee they will replace it so I will buy 2 more subs and they will not be lanzar. Overall playing time on the one that quit was about an hour and a half. Disappointed customer

89$ cad per sub.. sounds and looks like a 800$ sub

Reviewed in Canada on February 10, 2021

Style: 12-inchVerified Purchase

Absolutely amazing bass im considering 2 more . Breaking them in was the hardest week of my life, I wanted to crank them up. It's very important when you break them in to do it slowly(I recommend it taking 4to5 days 3to4 hours a day)and don't turn all the knobs up don't turn any of them up for a while actually. and when you do mess with the setting knobs only do so after they've been broken in. It's important how you tune your amp to compliment your subs. You should not have everything turned to the right.
If you crank bass boost with everything else turned up , it'll sound like s*** and you'll probably damage them.

(I learned the hard way to break in subs from their predecessors the boss chaos 12s, they lasted the better part of a month)

I have them inverted in a ported bassworx wedge box running off of a boss riot 3400.1 mono D they are bridged at 1 ohm... Currently sitting pretty in the quarter birth of my y30 sailboat

Hallo,
Ich hab mir diesen Subwoofer bestellt, weil ich über die Marke Lanzar aufmerksam wurde und herausgefunden habe das die beiden Marken identisch sind..
Erstmal zu dem Versand. Wie bei jeder Bestellung ziemlich schnell Sonntag bestellt heute am Mittwoch erhalten.
Zu dem Subwoofer der bekommt von mir volle 5 Sterne, weil ich finde das es erstens der beste Subwoofer für sein Preis ( ca.75€) ist und er keinen dröhnenen Klang hat aber trotzdem sehr kräftig ist. Ein klasse Ersatz für einen ground zero Subwoofer für 200€.
Kauft euch 2 Stück hiervon, bassreflex Gehäuse und ihr hab die geilsten Subwoofer für recht wenig Geld. ( im Vergleich zu ground zero)
