Sundown Audio

Leaving from work early today to attend MECA Finals -- I won't be on the forums this weekend and emails will be limited. I'll be back to work on Monday.

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

Hello, I am looking at a 100.4 to run my entire system with CH1/2 running a full range component set and Ch3/4 bridged to a subwoofer. I see in the owners manual that the HPF is a 12db filter but coundn't see what the subsonic is. My primary question is that since there is some overlap in these two filters if I wanted to filter out the fronts at say 60 hz is there a reason to pick one or the other to use or to use a combination of the two? Thanks John

The amps are on the final truck to us and are in Charlotte this morning. Assuming nobody drops the ball big time we should have them today. Being that they must ALL be tested I am not sure how many if any will ship out today but I'll have tons of pictures at least when they come in and we start testing =) These are ALL sold already -- just an update for those that ordered them.

Finally got some time off of work to sit down and play with some settings. Made a video and found that my voltage drop was way worse than I thought after I got everything running. So, bought a bigger battery and did some more wiring. Much better! Now I don't drop below 13v at high idle (1k). On the low notes before I would drop down in the 10's. Scary stuff. Anyway, made a new video over the weekend and after fits of rage doing video edits, I got it uploaded. Let me know what you think.

Well saturday night I decide to go out and put some music. I noticed my 2000D blue light no longer turns on (the one on the amplifier). Sub works so amp still working. What could have happened? Why? and Should I worry about it?

So, I wake up today get in my car and on my way to school, just to back up as a helpful info, I unhooked 1 of my subs the other day due to wiring and needed a bigger gauge. Sounded fine no problem with one sub everything was wired correct. So this morning I come out with a bigger Ga wire hook it up turn the amp on and it's barely playing so, I turn it completely off from the remote wire. I'm at school I unhook everything bring the amp in pop it open everything looks fine bring my car around to my shop class hook it all up and as soon as I plug my power wire in It arced just like a welder and my amp is up in smoke so, unhook it all open it up and take a look to what looks …

It looks like I'll finally be getting these bad boys in the car soon. Box is built, kicks are built, just need to mount the 8's in the doors and dress everything up. Soon I'll be installing the actual components and setting everything up. I've never done a ported enclosure before so I'd like to get some advise on the subsonic filter from you guys. This install is with the 2 copper coil 15" nightshades which have a Fs of: Fs: 30.9 Hz settling to around 28 Hz after break in. I have the box tuned to approx 29.5 to 30hz. What should I set my subsonic filter at so I don't unload these things? They will be powered by one SAZ-3000D at 1ohm. Thanks again for all your help.…

Any information on the new SAE-1200?

i need sundowns number if someone ahs it please pm me i need it quick! thanks

Guy I work with has a bxi2608D, hifonics says it does 2600x1 at 1ohm. Probably doesnt do that much, but he is wanting to run 1 12" or 15" sub. Would nightshade or the z-15 be able to handle that? thanks

hi, I ask Jacob, or someone else, if you can get all the parameters T / S of midrange NeoPro 8 and 10" measures of the coil, size of the ideal box, etc. etc. you can have this information? customers are calling thanks

I checked all wires, rca's, all speakers work on all 3 other channels but channel 4 just has his sound in it. Changed rca's, same thing, how much to send in and get it fixed? thanks

yah just curious if anybody has done any testing above 16.5v resting? possibly 1 ohm testing as well.

Ok Has anyone tested the 1200D at 2 ohms and 14.5v? What can I expect for power? I have a pair of DD 1008a's I want to power with it. Opinions? David

So,, how do i get on team sundown? what are the requirements? let me know please i would like to be a part of it.

i went to the MECA comp in E town this past saturday and compteted in street 2. i won first place by default lol.. but my 08 mazda 3 sedan did put up a 144.9 with a single 15'' FI BL and a single SAZ1500 i am strapping two 1500s on the sub for the next show.. as well as some more tweakin.....

I love it! Gain is barely up and it's pounding! Thank's for the easy step by step amp tuning guide. You guys are great! amp My link

Ok guys, well im doing an install update on wends in which im adding a kinetik 2400, 1800, replacing some crappy rcas with nice knu krystals, adding a 1/0 negative run between kinetiks, adding more power wire etc, adding 880 prs to replace my crappy alpine, and last adding the second sae-1000D proto for substage. anyways. i want to create an amp rack that provide the proper airflow that the amps need to allow them to cool and breathe. and im tossing around how i will design it. but it will house my 2 sub amps, the 1000's. I want to put the amp rack on the back of my box, that is 40" long, but i want to keep the amp rack to around 32 - 33" so it fits between my trunk braci…

I have a box for 2-15's already built....7cubes at 32hz with 102" of port area. Was wanting to try out some sa15's in it and see how they do, I have ran sa10's and I was impressed. What do you guys think, power will be a crescendo bc3500d Too much power? Too big a box? Will be for daily pounding and competing

Ok, I will send out a BNIB Sundown Audio 125.2 FULL WARRANTY to a random donater for Haiti reflief. paypal me @ [email protected] with your message being: TREMOR DO NOT STATE DONATION OR RAFFLE, ONLY STATE TREMOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a mad ass rush for donations to the Haiti relief effort and a chance for you to get a BNIB amp for $3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Once the "game" is ov…

Do you think I will need to upgrade my alternator? I have an 2006 Scion xB with a stock battery up front. I have a Kinetik 600 in back and a 3 farad cap. That feeds one sundown 1500. Also have big 3 done. I am probably going to upgrade wiring again and do two runs of 0 gauge from front to back battery and just do 0 to cap and amp. I am also looking into uprading stock battery to a kinetik also. Should I just do all of this and alternator at same time and say screw it. That way I know I have enough juice if I wanna ever upgrade to a second 1500 and second sub.

For the 2 18" mts in the mini.. Main problem is electrical. Not sure on it yet.. I'm most likely going to get one 3000d first (due to money) so I can run it @ .5 to both subs. Then if I feel the need, I can get another, and switch it up to both amps strapped @ 2 ohms for both subs. Subs are dual 2. What do you guys think? Mids and highs amp will also consist of two 100.2s, and one 100.4.

I read somewhere that the little saz 1000 d was discontinued. Is it true ? A friend of mine needs one more for his instal. Can he still buy one? He may not be ready to do so, but he really needs it. He already has 2 of them strapped running a 15" xcon, and he needs one more to strapp with his 3rd saz 1000 (that he bought from me !! ) He is building a demo car with 4 saz 1000, 2 15" xcons, and a lot of speakers in the front doors. He needs a 2nd JBL Crown (bpx 600.4) amp for his mids and highs. Everything will go in a small 2 doors Renault Clio. I will make a build log, of course !

Hi, i thought of trying some stuff from sundown audio. I need two setups: 1) The first one is for my girlfriends car and i thought of using 2 e8's powered by one saz 1000d, wired to 2 ohms is 300 watts per woofer... 2) Second is perhabs for me... I have one BTL 15'' right now powered by one RFt2000bd... But this lil beast takes too much space in my trunk... If i use 4 e8's on the t2000k strapped down to 1 ohm thats 500 per woofer, is that too much?? or should i better use 1 nightshade 12''?? Or more e8's? I don't want to go bigger than 2.5 - MAX 3 cubes after port replacement...! I hope you guys understand my bad language and can help me buying equipment from Sundown. I'…
