I'd even argue they suck for surfers. MLA was pushing the kicker units to me a few years ago and after hearing them locally, they are 100x better than any WS pairings if your desire is hlcd's.

    heard the rev12's were coming for a year or so and interesting to see they made it. with all the push to surfing anymore and that every lake in the country is after boating for wakes/loud stereos, I can't believe that WS didn't release a 12 with a regular dome tweet. that would get plenty loud enough for surfers but not be "that guy" at the party cove/around the lake.

    (Or maybe you can't because of your Rev's )

    Depends on how they did the horn they may be just fine up close. The KMTC11 is perfectly fine even at close range.
    I hope WS took note and toned down the horn a bit for the new 12's. From the reviews I've seen I think they may have (but haven't heard them)

    I have not heard the new 12HD yet, hope to have mine next week. I plan to leave my rev-10 up and then mock up the 12's on the bench and do an A/B before I pull the 10's down.

    The larger driver and larger pod alone would have improved the mid- to high balance, but they took further. This is not just a 2" larger Rev-10. Its all brand new inside and out.

    While some do find the Rev-8/10 still on the harsh side, the Rev series was a huge leap in sound quality from the original Pro series.

    Excellent review, holy loud at 450feet

    That is one think I like about the JL’s they drop off around 100 feet which is perfect

    Great review…. Anything new to add after a summer with them? Sticking with the same amp? Upgrading existing Makai Sub to fill in the cabin? Does the additional size continue to be a non factor?

    I’m fine with them as is really. Certainly would like to upgrade but don’t feel the benefit outweighs the cost.

    I would love to upgrade the sub eventually. Maybe add an AS-10 or even an AS-6.

    Thanks a bunch for the reply…. My head is telling me to upgrade the Sub first and see how that fills it out, but there are no way my Rev8’s will probably keep up after that lol

    Great video. I like the side/side of 10s vs 12s.
