Sundown Audio

Only took a few shots of the actual box build as I just didn't feel like stopping to take pics. 45's in the corners and strap braces on all walls, plus double front baffle. Box is plenty solid.

Will the new nightshade 12 for sale at th SSA shop handle the SAZ-3000 daily?

hallo im using alpine 9855R with sundown saz1500 on dual genesis audiophile 30.01. my problem is when i connect rca to the regular INPUT connection even on full gain the subs almost not move but when i connect rca to the BR connection the subs working great but i dont have control on gain etc.... what can be the problem?

just did a 148.8 with 2 10's and 2 1500's. i'm looking into dynamat for my car but not sure if it will help. anyway's sundown FTW

Finally after almost a year in the making, here is a clip of my setup in action. The port is in the middle so be aware there is noise in the video from all the air these 10's push out. The camera doesn't really pick up all the excursion very well either.

decided to try an sa15 out powered by channels 3 and 4 bridged on my 200.4. 900-1000 watts roughly. this box is 3.8 cube after displacement with a single 6" aero 17.5" long tuned to 31ish hz lol. 17x31x17 is the dimensions. not shooting for huge numbers just wanted to throw something in my gas saver daily driver. 1991 civic hatch behind the seats. so ill still have full function of my rear seats. eventually ill buy a round over bit to round over all the edges but right now this is where its at. not sure how long ill be using the box cuz im sure someone local will decide to buy it just like every other box i seem to build haha.

i have a sa-8 d2 and i was wondering what box would be better. I am going to buy a pre-fab box and don't know which one would be better have a amp running 300 watts rms. just wanting the best option, which one should i get and why? i know it likes a ported box from .6 to 1.25 one is .80 net box so .70 after displacement. this one mentions a 40" port is that good or right for this woofer? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230527532374&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT and the other is 1.10 net and 1.00 after displacement http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350398128241&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I am using a SAX100.4 to power my ID OEM mids and Focal tweeters. Channels 1 and 2 go to the tweets and 3 and 4 go to the mids. They are being crossed over in my Alpine CDA-9887. SO my question is what signal will be present at the 100.4's RCA outputs? Does the amp sum all the signals together so I will have a full range output there or does it just use the inputs from channels 1 and 2 or something? I want to run some rear fill in my Acura MDX and I was thinkin about picking up a SAX100.2 but I dont know how to get a full range signal to it because my deck only has 3 preouts. Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated.

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.

1 sa-15 ported in 3-3.5 cubes @ 30-35hz with 1500 watts in a wagon is it possible to do 140's on music

Hi Guys, So I want a SaZ 3000D and nothing else. problem is i know my electrical might or might not make it. All i Need (for the time being) is 2000RMS into 1 ohm problem is; im half way around the world and no one is doing a alt for my car. at the moment im pushing 1200 RMS (mono only) into 2ohms and dont have any problems with my all stock electrical the plan is to get the big 3 done and two identical deepcycle battery's im planning to push the 2x BL 12's if any one would want to know my current amp will do 1750 RMS into 1 ohm but somehow i think a big amp working not so hard will give better results then a smaller one driven to its max ?? + its a sundown so i got to h…

Hey Folks this is my small commuter car build. I picked up a 09 corolla coupe of months ago did some small mods. I started off my system with a eclipse 7200 headunit, mb quart qsd216 in the front, zapco iforce 6x9 in the rear, jl audio 300/4, n 500/1v2. With some fosgate p1s that i had from my previous car. Then I wanted something that was louder after askin jacob a million questions i got a saz-1500d and nightshade 15. I also bought a powermasters 2400, big 3, ran 0 ga to the amp, n kept 4ga for the mids amp . I got a box made from James from Tech12volts.com Thanks for his help, its a 3 cu ft box + port tuned to 35hz. I just wanted to thank Jacob and James for there gre…

Need help on deciding which amp to choose to run my 2 - sa8s?

hey i saw the amp has 4x40 amp fuses. i have also talked to a couple sundown guys who say you can get 2500 rms at .5 ohms with 14 volts. i dont understand how you can get 2500 watts from 160 amp's ?? because 160 X 14.4 and 85% efficiency equals 1958 watts i dont doubt that the amp puts out the power i just would like an explination why

Ok I have 1 3k and a 100.4. I have a yellow top under the hood and 2 Kinetik 2400 in the rear. The problem I have is there is no one that makes a alt for my car. I do plan on adding a second alt where the ac compressor but that going to happen at tax time. What I need to know is how many more 2400's I would need to run a 4500. Right now my voltage doesn't drop below 12.5 at full tilt on music. My stock alt is a 90 amp and does 14.5 cold and 13.9 hot. My batterys rest at 13.3. I hope this all the info needed to come up with a answer.

Refurbished saz-1500d or new saz-1500d. the new one i can get for 600 and refurbished will be getting for 450. which should i choose? this is coming from db-r.com

I want to say thank you and just let you know that you WILL be put up on the rides section, but unfortunaly, I am currently working on a project that has not been approved and accepted and have not yet done it. Fear not, they are coming!

Jacob, whats the airspace requirements on these? and when will they be available. Im looking to upgrade my 4 sa8s with 2 10s. would like to use the Nightshade v.2 if possible. im trying to be louder than now but i have only 2.5 ish cubes and lots of power.

http://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/member-product-reviews/61735-sundown-sa-12-review.html "I have had this sub for a few days now and am finally getting a chance to really give it a good listening to, mainly on my commute to and from work and this evening i finally had some time to just sit in the car and play some random tracks. The car is a 2008 Scion xB, the sub is in the rear cargo area in a 2cu ft ported enclosure tuned to 29hz (I will be updating my build thread with that info as well) Sub is on the drivers side facing the hatch port is on the passenger side facing the wall which was recommended to me and works VERY well. Build quality is outstanding, great fit and…

ok here it is i have a goliath that im sick of! allways at the shop. i have 2 15 FI audio fully loaded bl's with the daily option the box is 6 cubic ft vented at 33hrz 0.70 ohms at the amp a 200 amp alt, 3 yellow tops and 0 gauge althe way around the way i see it is i can get a 1500 watt.. and it should push these subs well,,, and if not.. ill buy a second 1500, and strap them to get more power, or i can get a 3000 watt.. and be in the same boat as i am now, relying on the one amp, and then if it breaks i got nothing until the repair is done but will the 1500 indeed push these subs alone, just one?…

I just want to say thank you to Jacob at Sundown with all the help he has given me. I purchased an SAE-1200v1 from a person on another forum, and as soon as I hooked the amp up it went into protection. I checked my wiring, and even hooked up another amp, which worked fine, but the Sundown just kept going into protection. This was on a Sunday, and Monday morning I sent Jacob an email asking if there was a remedy to my problem. Of course, I had no documentation for the amp in question, so Jacob offered to send me either a new 1200v2 or a 1500, both for a very nominal upgrade fee. I jumped on the chance to get the 1500. (It is probably way more power than my single 10 …

what are the duty cycle rattings on the saz1500d ? and at what wattage are they 100% duty cycle ? thanks
