I'll be making my new box shortly with 4 Sound Splinter Signature RL-p 12". All 4 are D4 ohm giving me a final load of 2ohms for the amp. I was wondering if I should maybe trade the sundown 3000 for 2 1500. This way I could run 2 subs at 1ohm to each 1500. I "think" my other option is to run the 3000 at .5 ohm, but I don't know if that's a smart thing to do. My electrical consist of a 200 amp alt, 2 yellow tops, 2 runs of + 0awg, and 2 runs of - 0awg. What are your thoughts? I'm kinda at a lost right now, lol.

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:

10,320 watts from my pair @ 1.5 ohms each actual impedance after rise, starting at 0.5 DCR 5160 each 17.9 volts rest - did not measure voltage drop yet This is similar to what I got from the 3000s at a rise to ~1 ohm or below Will post more when I get more results.

Got a Nightshade 12 D1 and I have no box making skills so I'm at the mercy of someone else to have a box made. What would you guys recommend? Should I have it built at the local Car Audio shop, or would a place like this be ok? http://www.klausaudio.com/subwoofer-boxes/...p;x=23&y=10 If this site isn't any good, anybody have any alternatives online? Thanks.

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!

The first pre-sale was so popular we sold out before the amps even arrived... so we are doing it again Same deal as last time around! $850 for one $825 for two (each) $810 for four or more (each) Paypal me at [email protected] to Pre-Order! OR Order on our cart system here : http://www.sundownaudio.com/presale/ The current ETA is around the end of August -- this is a rough estimate. As always, with a pre-order the ETA is subject to change based on shipping delays, etc, etc. PLEASE do not pre-order unless you are okay with any delays that may occur. They feature 33% more output FETs than the current 3000D... a quad transformer setup (more efficient)... and some ot…

Hey guys, bout to order a SAZ-1500d and a SAX-125.2 and I have a 12inch Nightshade on the way. I'm also gonna put a Kinetic HC1800 in the trunk. I'm gonna order a dual amp kit from KnuKoncepts. My question simply is whats the best amp kit for these amps? I guess it would be more of a question about what size I need. I just want to do it up as nice as possible. KnuKoncepts looked good, but I'm also open to recommendations of other wiring brands. I also want to do the Big 3. What exactly would I need for that? Any other suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. I've been around for a while but been out of the game for about 5 or so years(not that I knew all that…

I had decided to go with another set of 18s and swap amps too. But, I really would like to get alot of my room back. So, I will sale my bl 18's and keep both sundown saz 1500d's. I would like to change to either 2 12" nightshades or 1 12 or 15" with both amps strapped on 1. I have 20 cube box now, so anything smaller I will get alot of room back. Any suggestions on those above or possibly Z15?

Anybody have any experience with the Z15 sub? Thinking about pairing one 15 with an SAE-1200D or SAZ-1000D. Also, what would be better, the SAZ or SAE? The Nightshade might be a little overkill for my tastes so I figured the Z15 might be just what I was looking for. Any feedback would be appreciated.

I have my 2 Saz-1500's strapped. I have 2 15" Fi BL subs. They have all the power options on them. Now when I set my gains with the DMM 77.5 volts - 5 volts for my headunit output i get the old smelly subs. Meaning when I turn the volume up i start to smell voice coil. So i turn the gain down a little bit and it seems like the subs aren't as loud as they were with my American Bass amp. So I turn the gain up just a little more and start to smell the voice coils again. It is almost like there is a magic area on the gain where I don't smell voice coil when turned up. I don't know it seems like the amps should be doing more than what they are doing. But when I turn …

Jacob, from what I have seen you post in the past couple weeks on the new sub, it sounds like you are planning on making it for more of a ported/spl/ high power app? If so, I have an idea which you may or may not like. I suggest that you make 2 versions of it, 1 for the ported/spl crowd, and another that is totally for the small sealed crowd. I don't know if it's possible to do with the same motor and just a soft parts swap.. call 1 the p8, and one the s8. I have 8 of your e8's and I like them, but wish they had more power handling in a small sealed app. They do tend to bottom fairly easily when you get some power to them, in the recced enclosure. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, …
