Sundown Audio

Hey Guys. I wanted to show you a few items I picked up this weekend in Newton Grove NC. What's In The Box? NSCSPL Loudest Of The Day JFF- Truck 165.5DB in the Port This is what was in the box! The Highlander Sword. One Hell of a competition and against a tough competitor named Brian Thornhill The Highlander Sword Unsheathed. I really had an awesome time at the show this weekend and thanks to everyone for helping me out. Props to Jacob for building a very strong subwoofer and My 3500D amplifier. I set a State Record in StreetBeatz with 149.4DB on music. Chock up another victory for Team Sundown.

I'm wanting to run my tweets active with this amp but can't find it anywhere. I know it was discontinued but I'm hoping I might be able to find it somewhere. Anyone know if they still have any of these available anywhere?

I hooked up my amp the other day and turned on the car for the first test and the protection light turned on for a couple seconds and then turned off. I wasnt getting any power to the speakers so i checked the manual and it said i either have a short in the speaker wire or my amp is faulty. So i disconnected my speakers and tried again and the light still flashes on then off. Should i send the amp in? Its an SAX-50.4

Well the more I study the x-over section on the 50.4, the more unsure I am. Basically I want to run two channels to my 6.5 " mid-bass. I'm planning on using the LPF on my HU so I just need to x-over the top end, not sure where yet. Then the other two channels to my tweets thru HPF on amp. The sub-sonic filters on both sets of channels has me a little confused. Could someone be so kind as to tell me a good starting point on ALL switches? Also I'm running one set of RCA's to the amp and the other set to my sub amp. Can I use just one set of inputs or do I need to use Y adapters (would rather not do that because of any signal degradation, tho probably not much). Than…

I am building some for a foreign market and they turned out pretty well. Before I start offering them in mass I am making a different spider but these worked out very well. The new spider will sit down on the 7" landing to give more cone to spider clearance. I'll put up some specs before I ship them off.

Hi all, New to this forum, veteran of Car Audio. I just purchased a new SAX50.4 to run my front stage active (6.5" Silver Flutes and Vifa Vifa NE19VTC ). I know next to nothing about the Sundown amplifiers, but like what I have read. I would like to have as much insight on this amplifier as possible. I mainly bought it for the flexible crossover section, and the good things I've read about it's quality and customer support. I have a RF Punch 200.2 I plant to run mono on a single eD 11kv2. I'm concerned about the two amplifiers being a good match. What kind of real power can I expect from the 50.4? I'm not looking for extreme volumes, but of course want good sound …

Hey guys, I thought I'd start this topic before I istall everything to learn and get some info on how to do it. I bought 50.4 to run Image Dynamics CTX65CS in front and CTX6 in back. Then I grabbed 125.2 to run two Image Dynamics ID8''D4 v.3, both at 2ohm run on separate channel and Trevor at PTS is building ported box for them now. All of this will go to Pioneer 880PRS head unit. I know how to connect everything, I will pretty much get to the part where everytihing is connected and I start to wonder what the knobs on the amp do There's just so many of them any info would be nice....

So... I got tired of not going to any shows so I've thrown something in the CRX. Took my "magic box" from the Jeep and threw my prototype Monster 15" in there as it was the only D1 sub I found laying around and powered it with the prototype 2500D. * Stinger SPP1500 under the hood with oval 1/0 Stinger flex wire -- one run power and one run ground to the back. * Upgraded factory ground wire here too. * Got it in behind the b-pillar. SAX-100.4 under the box. * Wire mess with distribution blocks. * Magic box in all of it's glory. * SAZ-2500D is under these boards. Just threw this in quickly with scraps to test. ... drum roll ... * Also did 150.1 but didn't take photo.…

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?

Hey guys, Found out that at least some of the latest run of 1500s have the BR IN and BR OUT reversed. If you got one recently and plan to strap it I would check it out to see if you are affected. This has no effect on the regular inputs and is only important for strapping. This can be easily fixed DIY or you can actually just flip the cables to the opposite BR plug and just use it that way. If you want to fix them so that the labels on the side panel are correct this is what you do : * This one is correct - the cables go blue, black, black, green * This one is not correct - notice it goes green, black, black, blue * The plastic plug around the pins is backwards and the…

i ordered a 1 x Sundown Audio SAE-1200Dv2 and this is the picture and it just says d not v2 was wondering if it was the same thing or i got sent one of the older ones thanks kevin

I recently installed my SAZ-3500 with two FI BTL and everything works real good, I then connected the bass knob when I turn the bass knob down to the minmum (no maximum) the amp goes into protect. Help please I really like to have control of the bass. What can I do? And, why does it do that....

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?

I understand that the 100.4 is 4 ohm stable when bridging. My question is, say I were to bridge the amplifier at 2 ohm putting out the same power as if it were at 4 ohm. So 320 x 2 at 2 ohm instead of 320 x 2 at 4 ohm. Would this still be unstable? The speakers are rated at 320 watts rms as well. The reason I am asking is I can get the same speaker in a 2 ohm version at half the price of the 4 ohm version. Thanks guys!

there was a fucking short out between the driver seat and the head unit and now i have 2 blown E8's...... anyone reconing these? or buying up E8 s??

I already tried searching the web and the forums, but I cannot seem to find a quality image of the Sundown Audio logo. Would be great if someone could supply me with the Sundown Audio logo. I prefer a vector image. Anyone care to help?

I know sundown recommends a fuse 8 inches before their amp.. I was told once before 150A is just fine... Im running the knukonceptz 1/0 KLMX cable (250a).. I started talkin about this to some other people off the internet and they keep tryin to tell me its way too much lol.. i think their full of it cause they also tell me 1/0 is overkill for any system lol. just want some clarification on this, thank you. Amp will be mounted maybe 1.5 ft from back battery and wired directly to it with a fuse.

So I bought a SAZ-3000d from db-r last december. I finally got to hook it up today! It turned on, sub wouldn't move, then the amp would go into protect. The btl was wired at one Ohm. So after reading the manual, I disconnected the speaker wire and the amp did fine, didn't go into protect mode. So I re-did the wiring on the sub but before dragging it out to the car, I decided to test the amp. Turned it on and the Blue power light came on and about one second later it switched over to protect. Needless to say I was astonished. The wiring is done as so: From battery plug in of amp to 300amp ANL fuse, from fuse to + battery, from + battery to another 300 amp ANL fuse, from t…

Hello everybody. I just wanted to let everyone know that my Kia Sportage SUV is on the Sundown Audio's Rides Page. It is listed under the Customer's Ride's Page, but it should be listed in the Team Sundown Audio Member's Page. I am just happy they accepted my pics. Tell me what you think guys.

I have a 100.4 and mli 65 and SEAS Prestige 27TFFNC tweeters. What is a good starting point for my cross over settings. Thanks in advance

Alright.. There is a huge hype on the sa-8's.. badass speakers ive heard.. is the other SA speakers comparable? .. hope that makes sense.. what im asking is would the sa-8 sound better than the 10 or 12? they are all reasonably priced, but if the 8 sounds so damn good can i expect the same from the 12? I know the nightshade is a beast.. thats not in question.

Just an FYI... they can take anywhere from 1 to 10 days to build depending on how busy we are. Please do not ask for status updates the next day -- it just takes us away from finishing everyone's woofers. This goes for ANY custom job... re-coning a woofer, building drop-ins, NS v.2, Z v.2, etc. We try to keep it down to 5 days or less but it can take longer sometimes !

Im just looking into buying a sundown amp for my truck soon.. i already have a SAZ1500 for my other vehicle and ive heard nothing but good about those.. cant wait to get it hooked up here soon.. but i see the SAE1200 is the same price as the SAZ1000 ... what is the difference between these 2 amps? i know the rated wattage but what else is there? is the sae lacking a few things? just very curious.
