Cerwin Vega V82DV2

Nice little Vega! Updated 1/3/2024

I used to own dual 12 inch Vegas about 18 years ago, those were some beasts! I’m glad to see that the quality is the same or even better than I remember. This little sub hits more like a 10. I can get good deep clear bass in a small sealed factory enclosure (2016 equinox) using the NVX BDA7501 to power it which has been a wonderful set up so far. This sub will not be a window breaker like a 12 or 15 but will really add some depth to your music.

Killed this Vega about six months in, most likely my fault in all honesty for pushing to much power. I couldn’t beat on these like I was able to with the vega’s of old which was disappointing . If you want to add some depth on a budget with a lower power system this will work, if you plan on pushing more then about 150watts I would steer clear. Again blown sub was on me for pushing the power limits, but I was only flirting around the claimed 250watts rms.

IB Surprise

Despite the many loving the performance of this sub in conventional enclosures, I have personally tested these with a Dayton DATS v3 and found the specs to be quite different than stated. However, the specs places these subs as ideal for IB which is how I decided to use them and with much delight. Good kick, robust upper response with a natural sounding lower bass that extends well without the help of a subsonic filter. Feed it half power in a rear deck and enjoy

Excellent subs

I chose two v82dv2 subs for their low 34hz fs and 13mm Xmax to use with a passive radiator setup under the rear seat of my Toyota pickup truck. They sound amazing tuned to 24hz and being pushed at 500-watt rms. I have a hard time believing it's only two 8" subwoofers. Good solid bass, volume, and sound quality. Works perfectly in the application with all types of music. Great classic Cerwin Vega look.

8 inch bass

These Cerwin Vegas have such a rich deep bass. They don't sound like 8 inch speakers at all they sound more like two 12 inch speakers. There a rumble through out of my car.
