  1. they would be closer to the BTL.. then the BL when compairing to a fi sub IMO.

    was there that much of a difference when switching from your BL's?

    some people have said the nighshades arent quite on the BTL's level, but i wouldnt know.

    I've used all the subs form Fi and the NightShades were louder in direct swaps including against the Btl.


  2. The amps go into prtect modde when run at .25 is it.

    Running four of the 1500's at 1 ohm each.When i seen the .25 got me going cause could run mine at .5 strapped .25 each for burp's if worked

    The amps are only having trouble in the Jeep cause Jacob is running 16v. In a 12v setup they burp @ 0.25ohm just fine. I don't like recommending 0.25ohm to anyone though cause they get touchy wired that low. You need to know what you're doing and your gains absolutely must be set correctly. A good electrical is also needed since the current draw goes up substantially when wired low.


  3. haha yeah i read that right after i posted the thread lol but i mainly wanted to see what ohm they were stable at. diidnt know if it was 1 or 2

    Rated 1ohm stable but like the rest of the SAZ series amps they are tanks and will take serious abuse. The saz-3500d I've been testing has spent 99% of it's life so far @ 0.25ohm and that's where it will stay for most of it.


  4. I got a little testing done. These are "unofficial" results. Until I use Jacob's equipment I won't consider it official. I did not use peak hold on my meters (and yes they are true rms). Instead I recorded my 3 meters all in real time with my camera reading ac voltage output, ac amperage output, and dc voltage input at the amplifier. Then I slowly rolled into the volume to prevent spikes and held it for 5 seconds so the readings could level off.

    Results:

    2,318watts @ 2.9ohms after rise @ 13.7v after drop.

    4,040watts right around 1ohm after rise dropping to 11.3 volts.

    Again, these were not peak hold measurements and these are unofficial results. I'll get some official results from Jacob's equipment on Monday or Tuesday. That way all our testing will be uniform from the same meters.


  5. More pics.

    From smallest to largest;

    saz-3500d, saz-3000d, saz-1500d, sax-50.4, saz-1000d

    100_3273.jpg

    Saz-3500d measurements. Heighth and width are the same as the rest of the saz series amplifiers.

    Case is 26" long

    100_3274.jpg

    Including the rca termninals and power terminals it's 27.25" long.

    100_3275.jpg

    100_3276.jpg

    Width is 10" at the mounting feet.

    100_3277.jpg

    Heighth is a hair over 2.25"

  6. Hey, unless i missed somethin in the post, if u have only been able to get up to 155.6, how did u get that 155.9 in your sig?

    That was a different setup. You'll see he has 4x saz-3000s listed in the sig where he's only using 2 right now.


  7. I'm reading the depth of the box as 16". That means you have 10" of mounting depth for the sub. Remember that the sub mounts on the outside of the box so you don't just go by internal box dimension. Also if your sub has the cooling option (pole plug) then there's no need for space behind the magnet cause air doesn't flow through the pole vent anymore.

    Mounting depth is about 9 3/4". Maybe a hair over that.

    100_1882.jpg

    Outer diameter is about 15 5/8". I always cut to 16" for a little extra clearance.

    100_1886.jpg

    Cut out is 13 7/8".
