Sundown Audio

I need help with a box spec for my 2 Sundown Audio SA-15s. Its going into a Izusu Rodeo. My goal is to hit over 150db. The box needs to be 6 to 8 cubic feet, port tuned to 35hz and max width is 41". I looking for a box that i can use as a daily driver and for competitions. I would appreciate the help.

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.

So made a design for 4 Sundown audio sa-8 Dual4. I need to figure out the port tuning for the box. Here's a work up of it i made. Its all 3/4 mdf with a double top plate to flush mount the subs. Box size is 39w 12d 16h(16 3/4 with top plate) The port size i was thinking was 6h 8w 7 1/4d

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 i seen those large wire terminals in the recone tips thread and thought the sundown subs came with them new.but i guess i was wrong dont get me wrong that is the only thing im disappointed in.subs look great at a great price and cheap recones there is nothing more i can ask for.I have a sub sitting here from a well known company that wants $130+ shipping for a recone oh and its smaller then the SA

Video Caption : Purposely tearing up an E-10 to demonstrate what it takes to do so. We are seeing *clamped* power of 50-100% of the woofers rating with NO BOX for 3-4 minutes straight in order to hurt the woofer. When using an amplifier rated for 400-500 RMS on these woofers in a day to day situation it will be EXTREMELY difficult to damage them. Again... this was intentional abuse -- any person hearing the type of mechanical noises we did in this testing would obviously turn it down =)

I originally built a .35 sealed box for it but wasn't pleased with it because It just wasn't loud enough. So I designed a new one and had my neighbor who has amazing wood working skills build. I'm certain the port length and box size is not optimal but it works great none the less. Roughly its a .66 ported box. 12x12x12 1/2mdf Needed to keep the ported box as small as possible because of room concerns. Port opening is 1" Tuned to about 45 hz. Using a Boston Acoustics GTA 500m and giving it all 500 watts. Turned the box out to take pictures, it normally faces forward. I can't believe how hard this 8" hits. The last time I had a sub was In 1998, it was a 10 Kicke…

So I found that in the end of February will be available new models of SA8 subs, but the link is broken, where I can find more info about it? Thanks. Because I'm going to order SA8 D4, but after this news I think I can wait a little...

Just finished unloading... will ship pre-orders next week as they all must be tested. I am very happy so far with how they turned out -- hope that customers enjoy them as much as I think they will ! If I ever get time I may drop one of these in my Jeep and see if I can still do a 150 with one of these 15s *laughs* Would be fun to try at least.

My brother got an SA-8 and may not be able to port the box based upon where he wants to put the sub in his truck. If he decides to go with sealed, what volume should the enclosure be built to ensure the maximum quality output? Thanks in advance for the feedback.

I currently own a 2000 Pontiac grand am gt. the dimensions i could easily fit in my trunk would be 18x12x38. Could you help me design a box for a SA-15 within those dimensions. Need design specifics and/or cut sheets. I was thinking about going with two tens or two twelves but i don't think the space will allow me to do it, any ideas?? But definitely going with SA subs no matter what. Don't have amp yet but will match amp to subs regardless. Please Help

Alright, so... I plan on buying a SA-15 D4. I currently have a 500W @ 2ohms Rockford Fosgate amp that is powering a 12. I do not plan on getting rid of it, considering I just got it. But i realized I want a 15 instead of a 12. The 12 I have is a Rockford Fosgate P2D412 (2011 model). So, the jump to Sundown its self is a great upgrade I'm assuming. I plan on building a box that's 3.5 cubes, tuned at 27Hz with a 4"x11" aero port. That gives me a port area of ~12sq. in./cu. foot. From what I hear that is sufficient for a SQ setup. But it seems a bit too short. Any opinions? I want a tune between 25Hz and 28Hz.... That brings me to another question, is that too low of a tune …

My SAX-125.2 has completely stopped working. I took a look at it today and it just stalls into protect. Inspected the inside and nothing is blown, however I found 1 fuse blown and replaced it with the same amp rating (20amp) and it is still in the protection loop. The amp was fine until aprox a week ago it would randomly turn off for a second then pop on. There was also a very high pitched sound coming from presumably the amp. any ideas?

So I got up with Dave about making me a cool passive radiator... why, you might ask ? Well... first, I don't make passive radiators. Second... Dave does and he does good work. Third... fitting a port in the box for one SA-8 is a chore and very often not practical. So... the solution is a PR of course ! Dave can make these for other applications as well -- check them out at PSI Car Audio. On the the photos : * Adjustable mass for even lower tuning... we expect to be in the mid 30s with stock mass on this PR. The PR really looks great -- Dave's usual high quality work. I'll get pictures and data up once I have time to make the box. This may become an officially suggest…

Ok, so as some of you may know, me and the guys at D Style Audio are about midway through finishishing my blowthrough build with 4 z18v3's in my Dodge Ram ...a very thorough build log with lots of pics may be found on the Russian version of cardomain in my sig (you may need to use google-translate to navigate there as it is in Russian) for those that want Cliff-notes: vid just before the build here's the truck after a new paintjob this is the box - designed by Team Nemesis Derrick :thumbsup: installed Current electrical consists of a Mechman 320A alt, XS Power D6500 under the hood, two D2700's in the bed - two runs of positive and negative - Shok Industries 0awg .…

Original Discussion Thread I expect to have this in by first of February if not sooner (working on better ETA). Production on the steel parts started first of last month but I am being conservative with the ETA due to the continually increasing delays we have experienced this year on production. Due to popular demand I'll go ahead and open pre-ordering on these models.

I will be out of town from January 7th to 17th this year for CES and another business trip on the west coast. I will be back to work on January 18th. I will answer as many e-mails as possible but do not be surprised if you don't get a response for a while -- while I am gone the shop will be staffed but some things that I am still working on training others to do will have to wait until I get back or at the least take much longer to get done.

Picked up the proto from Jacob about a month ago. Finished up the box last night and wanted to share some pics. specs: 1.85 cf3 after displacements 3/4 birch that isn't really 3/4 6" aero 31hz tune sub: port: I flush mounted it then cut another plate to fit on the inside. That gave me more surface to epoxy and helped seal up the giant hole on the backside. Painted it several coats of hammered black. Used 1" dowel rods for bracing and support of the port.

Well i got my custom vented box built at 2 cubic feet tune at 35Hz. Now i need help setting the settings on my amp for my single 2ohm dvc sa-12. Any ideal what i need to set my lpf and subsonic filter to.

Can somebody help me with a box spec for my 2 SA-15. This is going into a Isuzu Rodeo. The widest the box can be is 41 inches. I want it for a daily driver and for competitions. I would appreciate the help.

Kind of a funny video of Paco playing his truck yesterday. It's getting louder and louder. I think it has even more in it... 153 @ 25 Hz 154 @ 33 Hz 155 @ 45 Hz Very flat too... we haven't metered higher yet, though. 12x Obsidian 12s 3x SAZ-3500Ds 7x XS Power D1000s charging 18.8v

The new NS v.3 15" woofer powered by 2500 @ 1 ohm pushed all the way into audible clipping. No sweat for this bad boy :thumbsup: ORIGINAL THREAD : Car Audio Classifieds ----------

Some may recall the 2008 prototype "Monster" woofer that inspired features later found in several other drivers we make today. It's been shelved for some time... but a second revision of the prototype has been started on and we'll have some testing coming up. * Compounded smooth machining on the top plate with the NS v.2 style cross drilling. I am testing more with a top shorting ring on this design -- that is not necessarily something that will see production. * Again you see numerous smooth transitions on the back plate so we don't have excess steel where it's not needed (weight concerns). Also makes it look very interesting and unique. The goal is to replicate what I…
