Skar Audio SVR-8 D2 8" 800 Watt Max Power Dual 2 Ohm Car Subwoofer

I gotta say, this sub seriously hits hard!!! I am mighty impressed. I have had it for a few weeks now and it broke in nicely. I got it in a sealed box (about 1 cube) in the cab of my '74 c10 chevy stepside. I placed the speaker in between my bucket seats that I added after I purchased the truck from my neighbor. It's got a mildly built big block and a 4 spd. The truck is pretty loud with exhaust I have on it that dumps just in front of the rear axle. And I am here to say that with this sub and my amp combo, along with my two 6.5 speakers, each in their own separate boxes in the rear lower corners of the truck cab ( ds18 midrange woofers rated 140 watts rms) and a Rockville cheapo component set (two 6.5 mid woofers and tweeters with crossovers mounted in the doors) that is powered by a little, Itty, bitty Stepsom compact amp that puts out 60 watts rms to all 4 speakers. A cadence mono block class d sub amp rated at around 800 watts rms @ 1 ohm powers the sub, I almost forgot to mention. I can be driving down the freeway at around 2800 rpms with both windows down and my back slider open. (About70 mph) I can turn the volume up enough to completely drown out ALL wind and engine noise and still have distortion free, pounding hard bass and clear, crisp mids and highs. This system is probably the best sounding car audio system that I have owned...and it is due in part to the excellent sub that Skar Audio has produced at such an affordable price range. I have it crossed over at around 40-50 hz on the amp with about a little more than 5/8 gain and bass boost at around 1/2. (Probably roughly 500-600 watts...).....the sub really handles all I have thrown at it easily. No audible clipping at higher volumes either. I'd swear, it looks like it has much more excursion than it's 15mm x-max one way rating! I'm telling u, when I turn up Godsmack, it POUNDS! Just break it in good for a little bit before u start turning up the volume much and I can pretty much guarantee satisfaction. It stays nice and cool at high volume levels and I have not smelled anything cooking yet for fairly long durations of almost ruthless pounding hard rock music. I cannot say enough about this sub. It BLOWS the doors off the kicker cvr sub its replacing. There is no comparison in sound quality and it handles way more power without burning the voice coils and stinking up the whole cab like the kicker did at 2x the volume level...I definetly recommend this sub to anyone who is looking for a sub that is budget friendly and high quality. I am sold on Skar Audio subwoofers! Update...just got a Skar Audio mono block 1500 watt rms amp to power the sub....I was mistaken about the cadence amp being 800 watts...it's actually rated at 1200 watts rms...but I replaced it with the Skar amp....anyhoo...the new amp is actually a little over powered for the sub and when I start to crank the volume up I'm starting to smell a little voice coil cookage...so I turn it down a bit, but the sub still seems to take the abuse...I will say that for it... But in the end I'm probably going to upgrade to the evl 12" sub so I can get some more volume out of it with out worrying about smoking the voice coil...but I still am impressed at how tough this little sub is....

I’m running two of these subs in a custom box in my 370Z. The power is insane when you want it, but they also stay clean and controlled — no muddy bass or rattling junk. Sound quality is way better than I expected at this price point. They’re built solid without being too heavy, which matters in a smaller performance car. After hard daily use, they’ve held up perfectly with no signs of wear or overheating. For the power you get, the weight, durability, and overall sound quality, these are an absolute steal. Easily some of the best value-for-money subs I’ve owned.

I don’t write a review instantly I have put them through the ringers. I have been playing them for over six months running them on a Rockford power T 1000 now had them on a Rockford power T 1500 before moving them to my other vehicle. So as long as you’re not overpowered them you should be all right, but if you have a bigger amp, I’ll probably would run them each at a 4 Ohm load to bring them to a 2 Ohm load. In the picture below is a pair of SDR & SVR both good for the price SDR gives more punchy bass.

Great 8in subwoofer for price point. Dual 2ohm voice coils allow for wiring options. 2-4 SVR-8 D2 subs in a Skar Audio prefab or ported enclosure and a minimum of 800w amplifier should produce more than adequate bass response.

Great quality. I’m happy with my purchase.

The foam surrounds in my JL Audio Subs dissolved so replaced with these- they take a bit more power to wake them up, but the sound is nice, smooth bass. Very heavy, much more than my JL's, Wired these as 4 Ohm, using in cabinet at home for Surround, They protrude a bit in front so be aware of covers interfering, I like the stitching, these look very rugged, they look great as well. Should be great for car subs.

really powerfull i really love how this work

Dude let’s just say at 40 hz this bay knocks jk no but the bass is superb and very crisp with quality. For the price you are truly getting what you pay for on this. I’ve had mine for awhile now. Unfortunately I had to put a patch on it but yet I have kids so you can imagine why lol but patch has been on the speaker for over a year from today and bought this about two years ago or more and it’s held up strong no issues and the coils are still strong as well. Highly recommend

Looks bad ass, and kicks ass!

Poderoso subwoofer la verdad funciona excelente muy potente

For an 8 inch sub at that price, it gives me the extra bass that I wanted from my factory radio!

Blown away by what these can do. I was expecting half of what they give.

This is a good sub. I got it for 140$. Hits low for its price.
