Sundown Audio

  1. Started by david in germany,

    Anyone have an extra remote knob laying around that they could spare? I am in the final stages of putting together my system for my Mini and got a great deal on a 100d but it was missing the knob. Any help would be appreciated. David

    Are there going to be more? I have my son convinced that 4 of them and a SAE1000 is the way to go.

  4. I've seen this asked before and I thought I knew ""Best Practices" but then in reading, I discovered there are some things about the PRE inputs on teh Sundowns where they don't like certian ""Higher End" RCA cables... Who woulda thunk it???? So, if that was unknown to me, what else is, you know... So my question/scenario is I have: Headunit - Front Stereo Preouts to SAX125.2 Pre-Ins Headunit - Rear Stereo Preouts to SAX 125.2 Pre-Ins No question there, next is the question part. I will be running (4) SAZ-2000D, if I can ever afford the rest of them.... Trying for by Christmas... Should I run from Head Unit Sub Pre Outs w multiple RCA Y Adapters to SAZ-2000D Pre-Ins He…

    Ok i am still tryin to get the math down and figure out what would be the best overall enclosure . I want a wide range of response and to be loud as well. I know going with a high tune will most likely produce high spl levels but this is not a competion box. I am not interested in serious sq but want it to be musical and not really peaky I have some box specs and would like some help in deciding if the box will work for what i want width- 47in height- 21in depth-14in port width-3.5 port lenght1-9.75 port lenght2-3 port area -68 volume 5.6cubes tuned 35htz

    Never owned Sundown before but I researched for almost a month all kinds of amplifiers. Price wasn't as big of a concern to me as quality. I read countless posts about Sundown on the internet and never came across a single negative about them. So I decided I'd power my system with Sundown. I preordered the SAE-1200D knowing I'd have to wait a month or so to get it. That was a tough decision too because I hate to wait. I paid for that last night and today I go to check my e-mail and I see a UPS tracking notification. I then see another e-mail from Jacob Fuller which says he is sending me my SAE-1200D already! They say 1st impressions mean a lot and I have to say my 1st im…

    Built a pair of drop-ins for a customer so I took a few shots. Yes... we stock parts even for our 2" coil drivers - I can't stand to see sub motors get thrown away (hang on E8 v.1 guys... working on updated parts for those). * Top triple joint action - we assemble these ourselves so it's all done with heavy duty CA glue like the Z v.2 and Nightshades. * Side view. Surround is a little bowed from sitting in it's shipping box, the cone is straight no problem * Rear triple joint support ring in place like the bigger SA woofers. * Your SA-8 make a ticking sound at high excursion? Guess what ? It moved about 28mm rearward and your triple joint ring hit the top plate. Need…

    Anyone trying to call me my phone IS NOT working at the shop. AT&T is taking their time fixing it... I've had no dial tone since last Tuesday afternoon. I was gone most of the time and was hoping they would fix it but hey have not... have called several times today from my cell with no results yet. Apparently I have to pay outrageous pricing for "commercial grade" service but they have all day to fix my problems.

    My channel #2 isn't working on my amp. I get very little sound and it's very distorted. I checked all the RCA and speaker connections on the amp and behind the headunit, I checked the fuses, I tried switching speakers, I tried unhooking my SAE-1000D, I tried switching polarity, nothing worked. Any idea what could be wrong? I took the amp out of the car. Should I look for anything inside the amp?

    I'm in the process of acquiring the rest of my system and basically the last thing I have to add is my sub amp and sub. I think I've settled on an ID Max 12 D2. I'm wondering what kind of drain running the SAE 1000D will put on my stock charging system at 1ohm. Also, I'd imagine this would be plenty amp to run an ID Max? It should have plenty of oomph if I planed on having the ID Max in a sealed enclosure in the trunk of my '03 Mazda 6. I have an Alpine MRV-1507 class A/B for my front stage. It's a bit of a current hog when bridged but when running mono it doesn't seem to drain the charging system nearly as bad. So... will running a SAE 1000D at 1 ohm onto an ID Max…

    Currently, I have a Memphis Mojo 4kw amp with 2 odyssey 2150 batteries + stock in a Hummer H2. I have already had to send in my amp to get fixed previously and I am trying to avoid that again. I was thinking about selling it off and buying a SAZ-3000D but I was wondering how hot they run because the only spot in my truck to mount the amp is directly behind the seat on the box which leaves about 1 inch of clearance for heat to escape. Also, the alternator is stock but I have not dropped below 12 volts at full tilt so I was wondering the output of the saz-3000d at 12v because I know the Mojo is not giving me anywhere near 4000.
