Sundown Audio

lol okay now that i got your attention i will make my lil review haha. so...my first reaction when i saw this amp internally was "this must be a POS it looks like a damn power acoustik or some thing like that internally" but that amp reaaaally proved me wrong. i used that amp @ .35 (strictly for spl) and it is one tough mofo i did a bit over 15 burps on drained batteries...my voltage drop was from 14.1 to 13.0 with one optima g31 and 1 crappy batt up front on my blazer. i got a 146.2dbs with 1 DD 9515. the amp never got hot during the burps, it didnt blow the fuses, go to protect or even burn...i used it at a comp yesterday and i did a 146.1 and got 1st place with it. so …

prepped ready for take off

Sundown did a hell of a job @ MidwestSPL finals this past weekend. Klade Turner and Daniel Arbuckle (ME) were both in the same class and took 1st and 2nd place in the Basic 4 class. Team Sundown FTW! I took second in a "pretty box" with two 15" Nightshades, Klade took 1st place. WTG Klade! Had never met Klade before this weekend and was glad to meet him, great competitor there. GJ! Thanks Jacob Great Products! Here is what I was using..

Ok Dj whats up i've seen them somewhere else why not here? i'm not telling tho.

I'm planning on buying a 15'' DC lvl 4 sub (1000 rms, though underrated) Not sure if I want to have it ported or sealed yet. Its a daily driver, No competitions or anything like that. I have an SAE 1200d and an SAZ1500 Which one do you guys think I should use to power my sub? I don't plan to upgrade from this, and I will never strap on another amp. I have a pretty weak electrical so If one is more efficient than the other please let me know. Is the SAZ worth the extra money for my application? I'm going to be selling the one I decide not to use.

I just got my Saz 3000d in and it popped a fuse, but first it went into protected mode, i have 1/0 wire going to the battery and a big 3 done in 1/0 weird thing when it popped i was doing about 13v then protect, then pop. idk what happened no shorts seem to be prevalent i dont know

okay fellars, i got a SAZ 3000D and i am going to be getting a WMD2R 15", it is a dual 1ohm sub, it does 1500 rms. with ease from what i understand, i am thinking that i will run the amp at 2ohms. so it will be an easy relationship on both, i know i could wire to .5 ohm and the sub will take alot more wattage......but i figure this will be plenty. so my question is, with a 2 ohm load, what type of amprage should i have avaiable for my amp, like what size alt and battery combo,,,, i got the welding cable and plenty of it, so i got that part going on. thanks Chop.

Hmmm...

well yesterday i went to install my sax 50.4 and the amp turn on but when i hook up my speaker there was no sound. Well then today i went to turn my radio on to power up the amp and it was in protection mode but when i unhook my rca the protection mode goes away but the blue led doesnt light on when i unhook the rca

Okay if I've done my math correct, the 3500D (with a 350A fuse), I should be able to power this thing with a 250 amp alternator and (2) D3100's (117 AH each) running at 1 ohm on (2) of the of the Z15's?

Went to get my brand new SAZ 1500D installed today but when they hooked it up it wouldn't work. The amp turns on and gets hot but won't play. They took it out and put in a jl amp and it played great. They also hooked the amp up to some machine (forgot the name) to see if it would work and nothing is there anything I can do or do I have to send it back? Oh and I'm running 1 12" fi bl in a 2 cuft box tuned to 35.5 hz with 0 guage wiring

what are you guys running off your sundown full range amps. should i do rear fill or not. i have to make some kicks for the front going to be 5.25 not sure what yet. i have a sax-100.4

looking at a SAZ and SAE1000d, and need to clarify the differences. -thinner case on the SAE -smaller heatsink on the SAE What were the other differences? Any reason not to get the SAE?

Okay.. I might be able to snag a pair of these 10w7 for a decent price. However, I am worried that because they are single 3 ohm coils, then I will not be able to run them efficiently on the Sundown amps. The 10w7 is rated at 750 watts rms each at 3 ohms. What are some amp and wiring configurations that would work for me? I'd like to give them their recommended power, but the JL website shows that the subs don't like to handle more than 750 watts continuous as it gets to the black line (warranty voided). Is this power rating from JL "over-rated" or "under-rated" for their subs? http://mobile.jlaudio.com/products_subs.php?series_id=5 I currently have 2 gauge power and g…

Hello Enlosure Guru's, I would like to seek your opinion, I would like to build a box for nightshade 12" 6th order bandpass. Please see below information using 3/4 mdf with no bracing support. Number of driver = 1 FS = 41 hz QTS = .44 VAS = .413 cubic feet Rear Chamber Net Volume = .96 Cubic feet Tuning = 37 hz Rear chamber depth = 10 " Front Chamber Net Volume = 1.16 Cubic feet Tuning = 74.7 Hz Box Dimension H=14" W=36" Depth = 14" Thank you in advance.

How does it sound for box size. 6th order bandpass rear chamber of 6 cubic feet @ 36hz and front chamber of 22 cubic feet @ 63hz. Wanting to get things started for a build next year. This is a spl only build.

Hey everyone before i pull the trigger on two 100.4D and a 2000D can any one tell me their weight? Also if I'm not mistaken is the description for the 2000D @2 ohm 1000 or 100watts? Thank you J

Sundown Team, What is the displacement of nightshade 12" D2 Thanks

yup, $375.00 bucks! so dam broke, I put it layaway! $50 bucks down. lmao......too dam cool. I am so ready to do this install , spring 2010!

So... the other day I shipped an amp to the town I grew up in -- Severn, MD. Thought that was cool 2.8 miles from the house I used to live in.

Hey guys, not avoiding anyone but I am behind on e-mails by a day or two due to the holiday. Will work to get through them as soon as I can.

Hello, One of my friend wants something to power his Xcon (in a 3.5ft3 net ported box). He wanted a Sundown 3500 D, but there are some really good deals on some 3000's. Do you think a used(from Sundown) or a refurb(from Db-r) 3000 can give the sub all the power it needs ? I think the 3500 is "better", but more expensive too ! How can they be compared ? AT 2 OHMS ONLY !!! BTW what to you think about used or refurbished amplifier ? I live in a Hot island (30° C all year long) so the ampp must be reliable. I would not like to send any amp back to the USA, shipping is about 200$ !!!

I just ordered my 3kd, and it will be shipped in 7-10 days, it's probably the best 555 dollars i've ever spent. as soon as i receive it i am going to write a review and what not and i know it'll be sick!

Hi guys I was wondering, does this sub have only one type/version that you (Sundown) sell, or are their options for the sub itself that can be upgrade, changed etc. ?? I know the Fi BTL has loaded options and things like that. Also other subs can be ordered with copper or aluminum coils. But is there only one type made in an 18" size that is sold without less/added features ?
