This video features an SPL Competition between Massive Audio HIPPO XL-1222, American Bass XFL-1222 and the TORO Tech Force 12S subwoofers. Many will be surprised by the victor of this subwoofer SPL Competition.
Let's do a complete unboxing of the Massive Audio HIPPO XL 122 and inspect its build quality, build a custom enclosure and demo it at 2,000 watts. Massive Audio Was first requested, on this channel, back in June of this year. I was able to pick up the HIPPO XL 122 over at Amazon for about $350.
Massive Audio has been creating Car Audio Products Since 1999. They have built a reputable name for themselves, with subwoofer lineups such as the HIPPO and SUMO series.
Today I am very excited to have a member of the HIPPO series to review and give you guys an honest opinion on its build quality and performance.

So, let me explain a few things about what just happened here?
First of all, at some point 90% of you guys voted the XFL-12 to take the title against the TORO Tech Force 12S and Massive Audio HIPPO XL-1222.
And in a particular way, some may say that it kinda did.
But as a content creator, here on this channel, my job is to simplify your audio experiences
By taking what seems complicated and relay it to you in plain English.
I believe that most of the votes for the XFL was based upon brand recognition and loyalty, as it should be, with a company that’s be around for over a 3rd of a century.

But the truth of the matter is this, the TORO FORCE 12S, Is a solidly built SPL subwoofer, in which few in the community has ever heard of. But Its X-Max, Sensitivity, and QTS rating closely matches that of the XFL. And despite being tested far from its suggested frequency, it still defeated the American Bass.

But looking at the spec sheets, one may think the XFL is out of its league, and that its big brothers in the HD lineup, would probably be a better match-up.
After all, the XFL is 500W RMS short of its competitors.
And nowhere near the weight in magnet.
But what the XFL lacks in pure power, it make up for it elsewhere.
For Example:
The XFL has more X-Max = more usable mechanical travel
It has a lower Fs=which promotes a wider frequency response
And it also has a larger basket, equaling, greater surface area, enhancing SPL.

However, after running these tests I felt like I was being unfair to the HIPPO and Force 12S.
Testing in an enclosure over 15Hz below recommended tuning, really isn’t the proper way to do this.
Which is why I will be building a new enclosure and conducting this competition again.
So the questions become, will the XFL do as great a job in an enclosure built for its competitors?
Will the HIPPO XL-12 use this second chance to redeem itself to the community?
Or will the TORO Force another under-dog victory; as the new SPL Kid on the block?
