Sundown Audio

Will a Sundown 200.4 work with 2 sets of re audio 6.5 xxx comp set and 1 set of 6.5 merlon coaxial speakers? i know the sundown amp is powerful so i just want to know so i dont blow any speakers

1. I'm in the middle of buying an SAE 1000d from a member of another forum and I'm curious about how many amps is this going to draw, I was guessing around a 150 amp fuse (guessed draw to be around 125 amps) assumed .8 efficiency) to be safe, but I'm not sure, and I figured someone on here could give me a much more accurate number and maybe even a link to fuses that would perfectly fit my system. 2. Also I've looked at other topics concerning this amp and it seems that it has 2 positive and 2 negative ports for the speaker wire... but it's a monoblock amp? Once I get the amp i plan on hooking it up to my two Alpine Type R's and I'm wondering, do I hook them up …

I am new to the forum, and I am very interested in the sundown amps. I have 3 RE SX D2 10 inch subs that I need power for. Which Sundown would work the best to power these subs? They take 1K rms each. Don't know if I should go with 1 1500d or 2 or....? These are not going to be used for competition, just daily driving. Thanks.

Hello Does the SAX100.4D is 12.5V tested or 14.4V tested ? Does It have different power and THD voltage test ? I'd like to have a sure answer. Thank you

I'm very intrested in getting 2 3000ds and this would be my first time ever using Sundown and I will be only person within 150miles of me that will be running Sundown and from browsing the forums I see lots of reviews saying they are well under-rated and they put out 3000+true rms @ 1ohm and 14.4volts. I have a damn good eletrical and I can keep my voltage at 14.36v to 14.48v at full tilt. So if anyone can tell me the actual power @ 1ohm and 14.4volts a 3000D can put out, I would really appreciate it. Thanks

Here is the situation. Just bought a 2003 Jetta GLI VR6. It had the factory option for the Monsoon sound system, which included an amp in the trunk powering the components in all four doors. The previous owner put in an aftermarket Double Din Kenwood DDX418. It isn't the best deck but does what I need to right now. The mids and highs sound better than what I expected, but I am missing the lows. I am not looking to shake the neighborhood. I just want to hear a more full sound that can handle my varied taste in music. I listen to everything from Squirrel Nut Zippers, to the Gravediggers. What I think might work, would be pairing up a Sundown SAX 125.2 with a SA-8 with the …

I finally got to put power to my pair of sa10 subs. I have 2 wired to 1 ohm in 2.5 cu ft net tuned to 32 hz with 40 sq in of port. They are running off my saz-1500d. And are taking it no problem. I only have about an hour of play time on them. So we'll how much they loosen up. So far I'm impressed. I'm coming from an re sx 15 in 4.2 cu ft net tuned to 32 hz running @2 ohms off the same saz-1500d. They are a little louder than the sx15, but night and day cleaner. They hit so much tighter than the sx. Rock and metal are enjoyable again. My current electrical is seriously lacking and I've got some bad voltage drop. So I know there is more in them. Over all I'm very happy wi…

1: In the power connection section of the manual, it shows the amp connected directly to the battery; no fuse for the wire, just the 3 30 amp fuses on the amp, but there is a fuse in the wire in the 2000 and 3500 diagram. I know that the 2000 and 3500 do not have fuses of their own and therefore need the fuse in the power wire, but I did not know that there was no need to fuse the power wire for the 1000 and 1500... I have always been told to fuse the power wire no matter what, so this is new to me. 2: I have always been told by many reputable members of this forum that sundown rates their amps' output at 12.8v instead of 14.4. However, in the manual, it says that th…

I missed out on ordering one of these when they were still in production. I would really like to find one for the new truck. Anyone know where I could find one in really good condition? NOS anywhere?

Forgive me if this is dumb, The red protection led came on no my sax 100.4 this morning. I tested the speakers and the right front reads 4.3 ohms the left front reads 5.5 ohms and both bak read 4.2 ohms. I know a speaker short can cause the protection to come on. Is the 5.5 a short or would it read OL on the meter?

well my 3000d just arrived and i looked on the forums and i wanted to wire my RE XXX to a 1 ohm load. well i've never wired up a monoblock with 2 outputs. so should i wire each 2 ohm coil parallel to each output or run both pairs to the terminal cup then to the sub?

Just picked up a used sae1200d from kevin s. I am in love with this amp. Never never never has my sub sounded this good. It's incredible. Excellent build quality. I'll post a full review once I get a couple of days of playing in. But for now, great product Jacob. A little dated or not, I dont think I'll be straying from sundown anytime soon.

I was told with a nightshade you have the option to add extra spiders. Is that true? If so what does extra spiders do?

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.

my right front speaker went silent. Channel one front tweeter still worked so I swtiched speaker two to channel one n it played. I then put speaker one into channel two n it was also silent. All I so far.. Can the channel just be bad?

Ported Enclosure would be around 1.2cubes, sa8 is rated at 400watts and I see everyone seems to feed them a lot more for even daily... So will the sa8 still move enough to get some decent output with only 300watts? This setup isn't for competing obviously, just for my old man

Hooked up the 1500D today after it has been sitting for about 2 months and now it keeps blowing all the car's fuses. Putting it in a late 90's Tahoe which originally had a 1,000watt amp hooked up that ran without any problems. Now after hooking the 1500D we've already been through 2 fuses so far and are unsure on how to fix it. All help is appreciated and thanks in advance.

donno if he posted pics yet but heres pics of his new sundown setup from the show on Sunday. LOUD AS HELL!!!!!!!!!

I'm looking for a jumping off point for a box size. If someone would be able to help me out that would be great. It's going into a S10 extended cab.

Is it possible to do 100x2 @ 4ohms and then 160x2@2 on the other 2 channels?

Have you considered doing a test on every amp and print out a birth sheet for each one?

Hi everyone, I just picked up an E8 subwoofer and I want to build a ported box for it, just a basic rectangular design with a slot port. The specs call for a .60 ft^3 tuned to 30 Hz, but when I use my vent calculator, the port length is very long (100", using a port of 10.5" tall by 2" wide). My box can't be bigger than 30"W x 12"H x 12"D because of space limitations. Would I be able to make a good sounding box for the sub that won't exceed my max dimensions? Any suggestions? I was wondering what kind of specs (actual box size, net ft^3, tuning, etc.) are you single E8 users running? This will be my daily sub, so I'm looking for SQ, but still want it to wang for a si…
