Sundown Audio

Hi, i run a Fi BTL 15 fully loaded on a Rockford T20001bd. I was thinking of running it with the saz-3000d. Worth to upgrade? And where can i buy sundown gear in germany?? Any Input?

I'm about to order a PSI Platform 1 and I want to run it with my Sundown 1000D. On the PSI website it gives you the option to bump it up to 1000 Rms and to change the ohm to 1 and to run 8 gauge wire straight from the speaker and so on. Before I order I want to know how I am going to get the best results. Order the dual 1 ohm? Go 1000 RMS or stay at 750? Go with the 8 gauge as the speaker wire etc. I have 4 gauge power and ground for my alpine also. Do I need to change that? Do I need a extra battery or alternator? Any help would be great. I want to order this sub asap and it's killing me.

I hope this forum is ok for me to post a question here. I am thinking of buying a 10" subwoofer and am looking for SQ. Can anyone suggest a Sundown Audio subwoofer I should buy. I have 2 E- series in a big ported box with 2 12's and and love them with spl, but want to do a SQ setup for a different vehicle. If possible I would like the single sub would be under $200. I also will want it to be sealed. I'm also not wanting to use more then 600 watts. I just want the sound to fill the vehicle. I don't need to be heard blocks away. Thanks for your time.

Hello, I read everywhere people talking about birthsheets they had with their amplifier. I have had several brand new amps in my car audio life(!), but I've never received any birthsheets with them. And it was the case with my recently bought saz1000D. It's really not a problem, but I would like to understand! do you always receive your amps with those birthsheets?

Well I finely went out and worked on the van, I haven't touched it since this weekend. I pulled the sub out that I knew had problems.

Been working on this guy for a while now... what I hope to be final prototypes just arrived a few days back. Based on our testing I am going with a 750 RMS rating on these. I won't say people will not be able to run more... but that is our official rating. They will cost $210 from an authorized dealer. Production models will, of course, have a gasket and magnet boot. ----- * Compared with SA-8 v.2 * Compared with SA-8 v.2 * Compared with X-6.5SW * Compared with X-6.5SW

They are at the last hub before arriving to me -- the scheduling desk at the trucking company told me I will have them tomorrow. Should ship most if not all of the ones on order by Friday.

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…

Hi, I just ordered a 50x4 and will be using this to drive my mids and tweets separately. It looks like to me the best way to do this is: - connect mids to 1/2, tweets to 3/4 - for channels 1/2, set it to HPF @3000 or similar - for channels 34, set it to LPF @3000 Then, for 1/2, set the subsonic filter the the crossover point with my sub. Is this a legit use of the subsonic filter? What is the x-over slope on the subsonic? My other amp is a 125.2 bridged driving a soundsplinter rli-8. Cheers!

I just wanted to send a thanks to Sundown for sponsoring the car audio part of Carl Casper. I think the guys that used your equipment there represented you well. I just wish that you could have had some sort of booth to sell various merchandise.....shirts, stickers, order equipment or whatever .

Has anyone tested the 3000ds in a street or street-max application?

Just a quick question. I am on a quest trying to create a small enclosure for my small Jetta trunk and still have usable space. Slot port enclosures take up a lot of room that a standard Aero Port doesn't. Would a single 4" Aero Port tuned to the right length, be enough for two SA-10s in a reccommended specification enclosure powered by a SAX-1200D?

Two quick questions that are really easy but i can't seem to find. Is the remote that comes with a SAZ-3000d for bass-boost or gain? I think it's for gain but i want to be sure before anything bad happens. Also, i have read what to set the Subsonic filter too, but what about the Low pass? Is it just a "whatever sounds better to you" thing? Or will setting it too high hurt my Sub? thanks!

the subs are very stiff

Little FYI for those looking for really awesome fiberglass enclosures for, IMO, incredibly cheap prices: http://www.resinating-resin.com/products.htm I have the one that says "Sundown Audio" on it sitting at my shop... paint looks like auto paint - factory level quality. Very high quality enclosures. I know the owner personally, from before he moved back to Michigan. I'm sure he could even do them thicker for high SPL drivers (Nightshades) - although, it may not even be necessary... we'll be testing the box I got from him with Nightshades as soon as we get power wire in my Jeep.

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??

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

Just wanted to post up our team's results from this past weekend. Jeremy McCord Two 15" Sundown Nightshades and one Sundown 3000D on 80 amps of fusing. Drive-By 2 1st place with a 124.6 Drive-By best of show with the loudest Drive-by score of the day. Corey Mitchell One 12" PBX XS and one Sundown 1500D on 60 amps of fusing. Drive-By 1 1st place with a 120.4 Phat 12 award for the loudest system with a single 12" sub. For everyone that does not know, this is metered on the Termlab doing a 30 second average with the meter 6 feet outside of the vehicle. I did not get any pictures of the show because of the bad weather.

I got 2nd place in the Modified 1001 - 2000W class last night with a score of 147.0db @ 48Hz in the kick panel of my '02 GMC Envoy. This score to me seems really odd though. A month ago with my stock 150Amp Alt I did a 147.9db @ 38Hz sealed on the dash but this time sealed in the kick I was only able to achieve 147.0db @ 48Hz with a 300Amp alt. Can anyone comment as to why you think that is so? Also looks like I have an issue somewhere with my wiring. I can play music all day long at full tilt with no problems, but once I put on the USACI Shootout CD and play a test tone the slave amp goes into protect once I hit 12V. Forget to mention before above. System consists o…

Hello, I have just purchase a SAZ1000D but I wonder if this amp really accept 0 gauge power wire? I have 0 ga from the battery to a distribution block in the trunk, then 4 ga to my 2 amps. Is it good enough for the Sundown I'm waiting for? Or do I have to change the distribution block to power the new amp with o ga wire? Btw, how long should I wait for the tracking number, pleaaaaaase?!!!! Thanks

Just a quick question on the Saz 3000d is it a MINIMUM for a 300 amp fuse or is it it MUST be a 300 amp fuse? Thanks, Julian

Sold the last of the SAE-1200Ds today and this line is now discontinued. The SAE-1200D v.2 made big strides in reliability vs. the v.1 model but still does not quite live up to the standard set by the SAZ/SAX series amps in my mind. It was a tough decision as we really wanted to offer a lower cost line but at this time it is not fitting into my plan for Sundown Audio. I've spent alot of time thinking about it and had not made my final decision until today -- I had made plans to introduce matching multi-channels but these plans are now halted. I think the change will be for the better as we can concentrate on our core lines, the SAX and SAZ amps. The SAX-1200D is only slig…

So I picked up a 12" nightshade a few weeks ago and today I just happened to be switching the box I had it in so I figured I would put my dmm on the coils just to see what it read. The first one came out right at 1.0, but then the second one reads 1.5. Is that normal? I let it sit for a while too, they would both go up and down by .1, but would eventually rest on the resulting numbers. Is that an issue, or is it fine?

I tried to post this under the SSA shop section, but this should do it here as well. First, I am planning to order a Sundown 100.4 tomorrow or tuesday, from SSA depending on how fast my winning bidders pay up on ebay. What I need to know is, Can a set of JL audio XR653 and a set of JL audio XR650csi ( the 3-way set and the 2-way set) be okay on this amp. JL says the RMS on these sets is around 75 watts , and I hear the sundowns are underrated. Will I benefit from this amp, will it need to be ran at a minimal power to preserve these speaker sets? I have a 2007 FJ cruiser, the 3ways are installed already - in the front doors and dash, and the two set is on its way he…
