Sundown Audio

  1. Started by sundownz,

    At this time these are just known as the "X10 and X12" speakers. The photos are of the first prototypes. I am already working on revising the prototypes with several important improvements. These are geared towards "daily beating" and are made to be used as a pair with either an SAE-1000D or SAZ-1500D. Sound quality is good, but output at moderate power levels is the number one goal. * Basket with extremely long clearances. The motor also has enough clearance to travel over 33mm rearward before bottoming out, this is well beyond linear coil travel limits. * Vented pole and vented gap for increased power handling. * The cone is a fiberglass weave with paper composite ba…

    Well it seems that the upcoming amplifier line up is strong. So what's it look like for subwoofers. The E8s and NightShades look like they're doing well. I've seen the talk about "monster subs" but is there anything else in a lower power range (750watts or so)? Something in between the SD1s and NightShades that a pair of them could be powered well by a single 1500d (or the upcoming 2000d).

    I am not planning an 8" for this line any time soon... but I am planning 10s, 12s, and 15s... also... I do not have an ETA just yet, first prototypes are on the way then testing will be in order for a while to make sure the design suits all of my requirements. Just though I would offer a sneak peak of the 15" model. Initial MSRP also posted... may be subject to small changes based on tweaks needed. I AM planning to use spring loaded push terminals on production... I don't like the spade connectors. Some T/S Specs measured on the Klippel machine at the factory... I will measure them myself as well once my prototypes arrive. 10" S4 Coil MSRP: $130 Re: 3.86 ohms Fs: 31.8 Hz…

  4. Just picked up my new Sundown 3500D's this morning with Eastern N.C.'s Rep and good buddy DJ Williams. Left out this morning at 4:30am (now that's devotion) and braved the bad traffic going and coming back from Jacob's shop. Let me tell you, yall ain't ready for the new amps! They look fantastic and have got me excited enough to get right to work on getting my upgrades installed. I am a little tired, a little hungry and well- I don't have to tell much more than that....LOL. :bigclap:

    Something we are working on... Was designed around the needs of our NEO-8 project : Project I'm Working On - Car Audio Classifieds But will eventually find it's way into other projects... I've started a new Ferrite 8" design to be used with this frame... depending on the cost / performance may move up to X8 designation (based on motor the size of the SA-12). It is a bit over-sized from a standard 8" cut-out and OD but that was needed to get a large spider on an eight finally ETA not set yet... but keep your eyes out !

    Well since I always see so much talk about new sundown products, figured I might as well throw out the possibility of full-range coax and or component speakers. I would def. be more interested in the component speakers, especially if individual drivers designed for active or custom built passive x-overs.

One question though.. will it have full manuf warranty since it's been refurbed by factory, or not? Thanks

    Well all I have to say is thanks Jacob. I just got 2 1500d's, let me tell you they are strong amps!!! I can't wait to get the other 6. I did manage to do some testing... I will just say this 2 1500's are louder than one Stetsom 7kd in my vehicle, on 12volts.

    So... I want to do something for real this time and actually get a vehicle that can handle some weight and still drive around without issues. Concerns about driveability have really hampered my previous plans for something large. I really do NOT like driving huge vehicles either for the most part. I happened across a really interesting vehicle by chance on Craigslist last week and decided to pull the trigger ! 2006 Chevy Express 3500 w/ Duramax Diesel Engine! I test drove it and it was alot more comfortable for me to drive than most huge vehicles and has some real power behind it as well. I am looking at mostly music and mostly impressive demoing but would plan to compete…

Finally got some free time in one of our CNC's and got this in. All i have left to do is paint the lettering to make it stand out more. Something wrong with the way the pic came out on this one on the "audio" shape Now to do the other one.

    Hey Guys. It has been a while since I posted on here. I finally have both of my Sundown Nightshade 15's and new enclosure in and we did some vids of the Kia in action. As soon as my buddy gets them downloaded, I will post them on here for you guys. All I can say is that everybody was impressed with how this thing hammers on only 4,000 watts. The flex is just crazy and it has no problem at all playing in the 20 hz range. I hope to have them posted by tomorrow sometime.
