Sundown Audio

Got my first prototypes in for the v.3 revision of the SA-8 -- it took quite a bit of consideration to figure out how to make some improvements to the design but I think we are on the right track : * Newly tooled surround with an improved shape / slightly bigger overall size... this is a new shape I have been testing with for a while that is a bit more linear than the old shape. It allows a small but noticeable amount of extra throw. * We removed the vent ring to reduce the total depth by 10mm -- since this reduces the cooling capability a bit we added gap vents (next photo). I did use appropriately sized drilled vent holes to maintain a degree of pressure in the un…

are the heat sinks grounded on sundown amps ? i would figure so but just checking. does anyone ground the case of thier amp?

Just curious if there was one planned or not?

Hi! I am from Norway and i am a newbie to this forum, i have ordred a SAZ3500D and this is going to replace a Phoenix Gold RSD1200.1 and will be pushing four 10" Phoenix Gold RSDc dual 4ohm. These 4 subs is giving a total of 2ohm so the Phoenix Gold is pushing max and give out approx 1400w. I bought the SAZ3500D to get some more power and some more headroom, i was hoping for about 2500W@2ohm +\- giving the subs about their rated RMS 600W each. I have a 200A alternator, the big 3 done with 0\1Gauge and 2 Maxxima 900 bluetop batteries. Is it possible to get up to 2500Watt or will the difference to my Phoenix Gold amp not be as big as i am hoping for? Thanx Bjornar

Here is one of my 9510's that will have the furry of the 2 SAZ-1500D's ganging up on them. Its getting so close to having everything to install I can taste it.

Hey I was wondering if I was giving my speakers the most power I could give them. See I have the Sundown SAE-1200D installed and I have a Autotek Mean Machine 100.4 also installed. The sundown has a 150 amp rating and the autotek has a 70 amp rating. My power wire is 0 GA but I still have my old 100amp ANL fuse on the line from when I had 4 ga power wire...the ANL fuse hasnt blown for the 2 weeks Ive been playing my system and I usually have it close to or it not at full tilt. Shouldnt those two amps have blown that 100Amp ANL fuse if it was playing rated RMS???? The autotek is 100 watts x 4 and you all know what the 1200 does....

What is the easiest way to find out what stock is available. DBr's web site isn't always up to date. I live on the west coast so by the time I get home a simple phone call won't work. I am interested in either a b stock or a refurbished from dbr. It's my understanding that all referbished items are routed through Jacob and then to dbr. So is it possible to earmark an amp to be sent to dbr?

Hi all, I have a JBL GTO 1201.1 ii amplifier, I used to own two RE Audio SEX 12" subwoofers but the cheap tinsel leads snapped; I had heard nothing but great things about sundown so I opted for the X-15! I wanted to know if anyone has used the JBL GTO 1201.1 before, and if you think it would sufficiently power the X15. I know the X15 asks for 1200w rms, the JBL only pushes ~1100w rms if I recall correctly. Is this a problem? Another question, I had the two RE's in an L-Port 4.0cu @ 32hz- given the power of my amplifier do you think the single X15 in the correct enclosure will be just as loud? Thanks in advance!

hey guys since i dont got a dmm handy, i want to set my 1500d as accurately as possible so can u guys who are running 1500ds or amps with similar settings give me a heads up on exactly what you guys have your settings at? ive recently been running mine on 2 type argh's and they get stinky within about 3-5 at times. so any help on settings so my amp sends a cleaner feed to my subs so they dont stink as much?

pic is my current setup. Thinking about walling it off and going to 9. How many aero ports and what dameter should I use. Everything will still be behind the third row.

is there any specific way of wiring a Fi Q into 1 ohm? Its the dual 2 ohm. Do I wire to one speaker terminal or both? wiring diagram will help.

i am going to be Strapping 2 Saz-2000D. my question is, will i need my subwoofer to be D1? or will i be ok with D2? i was doing some research and i couldent find this answer. thanks an advance guys

Just wondering... How come this amplifier isn't listed on the Sundown website? At least I cannot find it... Maybe I'm too drunk to notice but it seems like it is missing...

where can i get a large "SUNDOWN AUDIO" rear window decal?

with my 2000d + 2 12xcon setup. is it possible in the future to strap an amp with less power to the xcons. for example can i strap and saz2000d and a saz1000 together? or do they have to be the same?

Ok I am buying a little Mazda MX-3 Hatchback to have some fun with SPL local shows. I want to buy this guys NS 18 and I need enough power. Mostly for daily with some burps a weekend a month.

Finally ran the new set up today, It has the potential to burp a 158+ with a few adjustments 157.3 @ 53 hz

does anyone have these? how do they sound? how long do I have before they get discontinued

Congrats to Paul Strouth MECA Member of the Month. Team Sundown FTW..

Listen 1st of all I posted on here a few days ago about not getting my invoice. I had to go out of town for a job and could not post. This is the 1st chance I've had. Just let me start by saying some of you are so out of line it's unbelievable. I'm a paying customer who spent alot on my 2 amps. All I wanted was my invoice that DB-r fucked up and didn't send. The reason I posted here is because where else do I go when DB-r never get's around to sending the damn invoice? Give me a break I have done nothing wrong at all except ask for the invoice and it's not my problem if Db-r can't seem to remember our e-mail communications in which they told me they would send the invoic…
