Sundown Audio

Alright Jake get back to work. Do what you can with the help you got. Bout time for some mex.

Yes... that is a big hole in the box. Yes... it did 148.3 dB SAZ-3000D @ 1/2 ohm. Nightshade 18" / 5 spiders / D1 Long Coil.

I will be leaving on the 25th and coming back on the 30th. I will answer some e-mails while I am gone -- but most likely not all of them, it is supposed to be a vacation after all. Brandon will be at the shop Monday - Wednesday while I am not so he will handle as much as possible without me being here.

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.

SENDING AMPS IN WITH JUST THE COSMETIC CARTON IS NOT OKAY - NOT EVEN IF YOU WRAP IT WITH BROWN PAPER OR A LAYER OF CARDBOARD. </rant> Seriously... I don't pack them inside another box for my health. You MUST have the extra padding on the ends. MUST MUST MUST. UPS / FEDEX / DHL / USPS WILL DAMAGE THEM. http://www.sundownaudio.com/warranty.html "In the event of shipping damage due to improper packaging of the return the customer is liable for the cost of all damages, necessary repairs, or replacement. Be sure to properly pack your return!" Okay, I'm done for real this time

We are leaving tonight... so Sundown is closed Friday and Monday. So - if your stuff hasn't shipped and it is Friday or Monday that is why. We'll be back soon, though!

Leaving today after UPS picks up... will not be doing much e-mail while I'm gone, just a heads up

Went to local show, Larry's Electronics today in Mesquite....Lotta nice stuff there... Had my hoopty out there as usual...both 3000D's strapped @ 0.5ohm...each amp seeing 0.25ohm....and the 18" Nightshade in my daily music box tuned to 27Hz....WoW! lol.......Peaked out at 44Hz.... Tone 44, I burped a 150.4 and a 150.5.......I can't wait to get the SPL box in this damn thing... On to a couple pics..... The Ride.. The set-up... The Equipment of choice.. The score... Had a good time...Looking for 154's when I get the SPL box done...

And well, i will let the following photo say it all...... The car has 2 x Sundown 4500d's Strapped at 0.35 - 0.175 per amp Measured output across the pair 105.3 volts 121.2 amps = 12,762 watts output - or in laymans terms "a ****load" Battery was dropping to 10.5 volts as well! I do not condont this sort of abuse - one of the amps was going into protect which is something i need to investigate further, however whichever way you look at it - 6.3K from a 4.5k amp with no engine charging the battery (StreetMax) is pretty awesome going. I feel i must also give some of the credit to the DC LV 4XL SPL motored subs, as they seem to be standing up to the abuse very well so f…

got 2nd place at USACI thing they had here. it kinda sucked , and wasnt fair to everyvbody. I know I could have done better. This was my first time out without any help or pre-testing or anything. There are a lot of things I will do different the next time out... but you live and you learn. 3 RE SX 15" 2 Sundown SAZ 1500d's Sundowns never got warm hardly!!!

i met up with nightshade the other day just to talk and hear the shades. And let me tell you its brutal!! i have been to a couple of shows and havent heard anything like this. vision blurry, hard to breathe, felt like somebody was just punchin me n the head and kickin me n the chest and that was only halfway on the bass knob. at full blast, i felt myself drifting in and out of consiousness LOL . zach is one of the coolest dudes youll ever meet, and he knows his chit. Just wanted to show him so love. Shout out to team sundown!! the videos doesnt do zach's setup any justice. his car flexes like crazy!! oh, and excuse the terrible cameraman **cough**

I got 8 dual 10" subs in a ported box I TOTALLY forgot about. So while the glue dries on the newsetup, I'mma hook the 8 10's up to the pair of 1500 watt Sundowns. Anyone care to guess the db's?? Box is the size of the cargo area up to the side glass in a 99 Explorer. About 4 inches shy of the tailgate. Tuned to 42 hz if I remember right. I'm thinking I can pull a 143 atleast. J

Setup: Car: 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier Battery: Purple Haze Deep Cycle Wiring: 1 run of 4 guage monster to the back to 1 farad cap, split into 2 4 guage runs to amplifiers Amps: 2 SAZ-1500D's strapped Subs: 2 Oldschool ClifDesigns 12" 1000Watt RMS wired at 3.2 ohms. Box: Bassworx prebuilt futureshop Deck: Pioneer Premier DEH960-mp First run (Qualifying): 139.1dB TL ran from 30-41 hz, hit peak at 41hz. Second run: Started at 42 Hz, ran to 139.3. Amps went to protect and had to reset deck with time clicking (while tied with other competitor). Reset deck and hit a 139.8 at 43 Hz. Third run: fudgeed it up, ran it burp at 43Hz for a 140.2 when the LED's started the run. Other…

I had a miserable F-ing friday (yesterday). Earlier this week, a guy was "Selling" Incriminator 40.1's over on canadiancaraudio at crazy prices... (read: $600). He made it sound like he was just desperate for a quick sale, so I figured hey, may as well take advantage - I wanted to pick up a temporary amp to keep me busy until the 3000D's come out. The guy gave me a tracking number on thursday, and said he had shipped it out on wednesday. Turns out the tracking number was invalid... I tried repeatedly and gave up on friday. I messaged another guy that had "bought" a 40.1 from this seller, and he had the same symptoms. We compared tracking numbers and they were the ex…

Finished up a nice little install in a 2001 Lexus IS300. Kenwood DNX6990 Hybrid Audio Imagine 6.5 Sundown Audio SAX-100.4 2 Sundown Audio SA-12's Sundown Audio SAZ-1500Dv2 Customer took the videos, as this isn't my car.

Termlab 136.7 @ 55hz on the glass sealed 144.2 @ 34hz at the kick driver door open 158.9 @ 26hz at port All in all =

Car is a 2000 Altima with 2 HD315's forward firing. Picked up 2 more 1500D's for a song, so I threw them in so both pairs are strapped at 3ohms. Box is 8 cubes tuned to 35Hz as it sounds best for the music I listen to, meaning anything but new rap. It's just a daily driver that sounds very nice, but can get pretty loud also. TL at the headrest I did a 147.1 @ 31Hz which I was told is decent for a trunk car. I was pretty happy as it's far from an SPL car as I run a decent active front stage and dial the subs back 99% of the time. Couple of SQ guys at the get together took a listen and were quite impressed with how it sounded with the subs off and then dialed up to just bl…

I got 40 pounds worth of today Corey

well yesterday i went down to Andrews, SC to meet with Walt(cookiemonster) to pick up some new sundown goodies. Already had a saz1500 so i picked up 4 sa12's and a saz1000d. Walt gave me class A service. 2 of these are for my truck with the saz1500 and the other 2 go in my wifes honda pilot with the saz1000d....i got the two in my truck yesterday and all i can say is wow...so much better than my re se's

Got my 1200d yesterday, SWEET amp! one thing I still need though, A remote gain knob. Anyone have one taking up space and want to part with it? I need to be able to turn it down when the wife is in the car. Thanks all! David By the way, this amp is a healthy beast!

got my second amp today. woohoo! i took out he current amp pushing the XXX and will be running this one in the mean time in case if any problems come up while in warranty. since my next set-up will not take place till Feb-March it's better to test now then later.. anyways thanks much for the amp. it looks great and works just fine! now all i need is a new alt and tons of tons of sound deadener. off to watch ATHF movie and have some yellow rice and black beans.. woot!

This was me when i hooked up and started messin around Very nice amp! i got it wired to 1/2 ohm and it *sounds* so much louder then when i had the 2 1500's on em. Can't wait to get this on the mic! Thanks Jacob!

And it's amazing!

I got my 1200D yesterday evening and had a chance to look it over and take some pics today. 1st off this thing is built like a tank, very solid feeling amp. It blows away the Infinity 611A I have been using as far as build quality goes and the Infinity costed just as much when I bought it new a few years ago. Not to mention the Infinity puts out half the power. On one side of the amp it's got heavy duty power connecters that take 1/0 gauge wire. They are not made from cheap crap that makes you afraid to tighten things up.The speaker outs and remote turn on are built the same way.It's also got 5 30 amp fuses. On the other side there are 2 rca inputs and I believe 2 rca p…
