Sundown Audio

Welcome to Sundown Went live yesterday. The biggest upgrade is behind the scenes... the new software actually allows us to do more modifications so we don't need to bug our web guy (aka: taking forever for us to get around to it). I have already started filling in lots of missing information, pictures, and typing descriptions. Comments / big reports are welcome at this time. Some information is not there YET -- mounting data, specs, etc... that stuff is coming soon. We are absolutely slammed with woofer building so that takes a bit of a back seat. I may also get even more technical in the descriptions as well -- I am sure everyone enjoys that. Also the dealer locator is M…

I have the saz-1200 on a fi sp4-15 dual 2 for right now. Was wanting to know if strapping 2 saz-1200's to the sub wired @ 1 ohm would work out well??

New woofers from Sundown Audio... the first run, which is available now, is a test run to see how these woofers stand with customers. I really like them myself and am proud to offer them. These woofers are 100% made in the USA of as many USA sourced parts as possible in a top quality factory. Sundown Audio will be offering the same warranty on our speakers as our amps -- 2 years limited / 5 year discounted replacement and the same applies to these even if they do *not* stay on board as a permanent product. If these are well received more will be built and they will stay on board as a permanent addition. These will be one notch below the "E Series" woofers previously discu…

Purchased two D2 SA-12's about 6 months ago or so. The guy I bought them from bought them in Jan or Feb this year (2010) and they were re-coned with aluminum coils. I've just recently got a new amp and had everything completed then one crapped out on me. One coil is reading 2ohms, the other is around 2.8 and fluctuates. I'm just really disappointed this happen as I never put too much power them then, could it just be a result of a bad recone in the past? I'd like to get this back up and running asap. Thanks for any info

Which would be better off 1200rms? ""SQL"" wise

Probably won't have any time to put them in for another couple weeks, but just wanted some info. What crossover point should I use for the woofers to protect them from too much power? Right now my SAX 50.4 needs repair, so I'm gonna be using an old ADS PQ 10 bridged to run them, so probably around 60-80 watts per channel, so shouldn't be too large an issue with that. But when I get my Sundown amp back, I thought I would run that bridged, which would give them what, about 160 watts/channel? I've seen Jacob mention he's been running his off two channels of a 200.4, so I assume that's 200/channel? So what crossover point is recommended, and higher with a shallow slope,…

Has anyone tried the Sa-12 's in a 4 order bandpass ? What kind of number? I'm thinking of trying 3 in a 4 order. Can anyone design this type of setup?

I received my 50.4 today and it is beautiful as always. So now my new build will consist of... 1200D for my Subs. 100.4 bridged for my Mid-Bass. 50.4 bridged for my Mid-Range. 100.2 for my Tweets. Front stage is a HAT L-631 running active via Alpine H701. You think I have enough headroom?

are you going to do another sale like that on the saz1500d ?

Truck/SUV 0-30 - We did a 146.4 dB. Good enough for first place for the day. Truck is unmodified factory electrical and no sound deadening. 1 SAZ-1500D on 2 SI Mags D2 12's wired to .5 ohms in a 5cu ft box; did a good amount of work to get the port just right. Looks like the key frequency was 48 hz.

I am building a competition van for a customer and it will have either 16 XS Power D3100s or 20 2400s (working on sponsorship), 4 Kicker Warhorse amps, and a deck mounted in rear for burps with a audio control line driver (8v). This will be walled off and strictly for Competition use only and tuned around 70HZ. The customer wants to go with Kicker Solo X 18s but I am currently trying to get him into Sundown Nightshade V2 18s. There will be 4 subs and each one will be hooked up to one warhorse at full power (approx 10k rms each sub). In the van already i have deadened the cabin (this is only modification allowed in front of B-Pillar in USACI Modfified Division), ran 2 4/0 …

Is it possible to buy just the crossovers? I have 2 sets of rokford fosgate 6.5" component sets (don't judge me they were $50 a piece during back Friday locally). They did not come with crrossovers. I have sundown for everything else in my truck.

this is a neon partly built by Luist(nickname on this forum)...sounds loud but needs more volt(hes playing on the 11 volts and the 100.4 overheats) here are the pics... and here a lil vid

SUNDOWN!!!

Is the wired remote control for the SAZ-1500D a bass boost or is it a level control meaning will it boost a certain frequency or will it adjust the entire output level of the amp? Also when I set up the amp, my head unit outputs are 5V so I set the gain on the amp for 5V right? So when I attach the wired remote for the amp, regardless of what level the remote is set to I shouldn't get any clipping? Sorry if it sounds like a dumb question, but I've never owned an amp with a wired remote. One last thing, the SAX-100.4 also comes with a wired remote, does it work the same way as for the SAZ-1500D?

Hello All, Im finally going to install my amp I bought a few months back and have a few questions. Let me start by telling you were Im at. Im going to be installing an Sae-1000D amp powering an RE SE 10" rated @ 600watts @ 2 Ohms. I also have a 4 ch PPI amp bridged 160 watts running my front components. The car currently has 4 ga wiring. Would 4 ga still be enough to run the 1000 and PPI amps. Also what size fuse should I use for the power wire. Thanks in Advance, Mike

So Derrick came up today and constructed a box for me for my four SA-8s... still two 1500Ds on one Stinger SPP-1500D and one Stinger SPV-70 battery on Powermaster Charger (car off). We built the box from scrap 5-layer pine plywood for testing... we plan to use birch ply for another version at a later date. Results here :

Ok maby what i should of asked was is the t2500 from Rockford enough to power a fi btl 15" to full potential

what do yall think of the z v2 d2 15 in a spl box tuned to 39 hertz on a dc audio pai 3000.1

I was wondering if you think it would be better to get a 1000 or 1200 for a daily driver. I'm putting them on 2 15 BL's ... any idea's on this? the pro's cons to both?

I am offering up people to listen Sundown products in Centrla/S. California. I am now a firm believer in Sundown and am willing to let anyone that wants to listen to my SQ orientated truck running the 100.4 and 1500D. Keep in mind this is a SQ truck with the ability to get to decent loud volumes. I am a Sq compeitor and hence my reasoning about setting up Sundown amps in that fashion. I look at it this way, if I can make it sound good, REALLY GOOD, and do it at 2 ohms and not take advantage of dropping the impedence for full power then I think you can imagine the "output" with full power. I am still thinking about building up a DB car to show the true impact of this …

Is it supposed to come with it or do you have to use your own? Just asking b/c i just got mine and there wasnt one.

Here are some vids of my nightshade 18". I have a autotek mm4000.1 now(videos are with ap3000). Im wired @ 2ohms, after rise it see's 6 ohms, with 2400 watts. I did 150.7@42hertz, at the headrest. This was done at meca world finals. Comments appreciated, just wanting to see what people think. And here's a tiny hairtrick, not bad for a single sub.
