Sundown Audio

What is the proper way to adjust the settings on my SUNDown 3000? I'm only adjusting it to be clear to my ears as of now Can someone explain each potentiometer setting? / What each one does? and how to adjust properly. Do I set different if I want "lower" or "higher" notes to come alive? Thanks in advance ~Ronrico

i was wondering the mounting depths for the 1st version (on teamssaudio.com and sundown.com) not the pic flakko has posted

People here in SC have never heard of Sundown Audio and after seeing my scores they ask about them at every show. The basic questions are where can I buy them and what all kind of products do they have. I try to explain as much as I can but it gets really time consuming doing that over and over. Its also tough without any visual references and specific information on hand. Do you have any type of brochure or product cards that I could hand out to people? We really need a dealer here in SC. That way I could direct people there. Right now all I know to do is send them to the website.

Chris over at fisher customs is designing me a box for 2 nightshade 12's to go in my mustang. The box will be 3.8 cf total (1.9 cf each sub) with 4" aeroports on the side and subs facing back into the trunk. The box will be tuned to 35hz. This will be used for daily driving using two 1500's. I have seen on other threads where others using the nightshade 12's are using boxes with sizes around 1.5 cf for each sub or just slightly larger. Should I get Chris to trim down the size of the box to get closer to the 1.5 cf per sub? Or, is the 1.9cf more in line for that sub on daily driving? Thanks for the help.

Hi, just need a quick answer before I go buy it from the store.

I ordered two neopro 10's on Friday and was kinda hoping to have them this week, however I've recieved no further correspondance from them since and is like to know an update. Does anyone have a phone number or direct email link?

Well I have most of my system in right now. Had to send my planar mid ranges back to good ol Parts Express so slapped together two little boxes with some quart 3 1/2's to play the mids in my system. Also blew my Fosgate 500a2 and swapped in an Orion 900.2 my boy was going to use (I bought him a refurbed SAE1000d from Db-r) So its been some ups and downs. I am running a Sundown SAZ1500D on a TC Sounds TC3000 15 DVC in a 3 1/2 cubic foot box @ 40 hertz. Here is the amp rack as I got it fitted in my car. Just for the record, am running a full active system with 8's in the door, my missing planar midranges and planar tweeters. Hope to do Sundown justice.

I hit a 131.7 with one sa-8 in a .75cf box tund to 32hz of a rf 500.1 I cant rember what song I played it is in a 06 chevy equinox and I did beter then some of the people with a par of 10's and single ported 12's I feal bad for the kid with the aq hdc3 12 off 1000+ wats he onely hit a 128.6 but his was in a reg cab truck with the sub facing the frunt and the port facing up betwing the seats

i was about to purchase 2 saz 3000d's when i realize the shipping weight was 2 pounds....does anyone know why this amp is only 1 pound....is that correct?

this is the one song that doesnt flex so much....lol from a show yesterday ..... did a 153.1 and a 149 bassrace with 3 subs and 6 amps. had broke a set of amp jacks i didnt know about!!

Is there anyway to achieve bandpass filtering???? For example if I am running a pair of MLI65's and I want to restrict them to frequencies between 70Hz-2.5kHz, is that possible with this amp or any other 4-channel? Thanks

I am curious if there is any ETA on the 6.5" comps availability? I need 2 sets ASAP

how much does a 3000d amp cost from sundown? didnt notice any prices on website or maybe i just missed them...

I have 2 10's that handle 8000 rms burps a peice and need major powwer for burping only and i dont have much room the 1500d's wqill fit perfect I have 5 batteries and a 160 amp altternator i will be running these amps at this ohm load for competing only then return them too 2 ohms strapped for daily use i know it will void my warranty but can these amps do it

The setup: single DD 3518, slot ported, tuned to 32hz single Sundown SAZ-1500 Kinetik HC800 battery Did a 144.8 legal, sealed on the dash Did a 146.8 in the kick, outlaw Not too bad for 1500 watts, single sub setup, with no real power upgrades.

I know sundown recommends a fuse 8 inches before their amp.. I was told once before 150A is just fine... Im running the knukonceptz 1/0 KLMX cable (250a).. I started talkin about this to some other people off the internet and they keep tryin to tell me its way too much lol.. i think their full of it cause they also tell me 1/0 is overkill for any system lol. just want some clarification on this, thank you. Amp will be mounted maybe 1.5 ft from back battery and wired directly to it with a fuse.

just wanted to wish everyone a merry christmas and a safe new years!!!ill be getting my x-mas gift after christmas!!

Of course... Took the stupid JBL's out again since I'm still waiting patiently on my 18" and had a fun time today.....Did a 147.3 last weekend with them @ 2 ohm...decided to resin the box and drop it to 0.5ohm to see what she'd do....Heres the results.. Went to a show out in Frisco Texas with the car...took 1st place in my class and High SPL of the show....a ton of SQ cars there...A few guys were doing 149.2's and 148.9's.....I ousted them...with Sundown Power... 1 SAZ 3000D 2 12" JBL's Power Series in the back seat.. 3 DEKA 9A31's Gain - 0 Bass Boost - 0 A few pics... The set-up... The Score... The ownage.... 1st place and high SPL...

1 9510 + 1 1500= 145 on the tl my ( wife's) car is the eclipse with the 1 10 in it. took third for the day out of 26. sorry for the bad pic's but the 1500 was on the other side of the box. oh and I'm the guy with the red goat. i was hoping to have a rex by next weekend but might not happen. but will have my 6" aero's and part's for my 2 9510's (recone's and basket) and monday i get my second 1500 back. so if i run the wife's car agian it might do a 148-149 hopfully. anyways here are the pics http://www.termpro.com/asp/members2.asp?Wh...9249&Page=3

wierd ? i have a saz 1500d and was wondering, if i smell a woofer going up in smoke should i be shutting it down to prevent dmg to my amps ? or am i ok to just let it go up in smoke and push it harder untill it goes all the way . i know about the protection built into the amps but that doesn't allways mean that i'd be ok. if it is considered ok to smoke subs without dammaging the amp, could you safely burn sub after sub after sub and still be ok. would love to here jakes take on this too. i would never even consider this with any other amp, but these sundown amps are soooo darn tough that it dawned on me it might be posible. how about you guys at comps, when you blow sub…

Well, like I have posted, I won the DB Drag Class B at Michigan Tech today with a 143.6 and also won the amateur Sound Qullity competition. Just wanted to say I love my Sundown amps, you definitely have a long term customer in me I also recommend your amps whenever possible and also sport the Sundown Audio sticker on my Jimmy. http://img532.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mvi2330nw6.flv http://img532.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mvi2331mu7.flv http://img532.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mvi2332wc2.flv http://img532.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mvi2334gd8.flv

a couple days ago my amp went into protect without warning and now it wont come out. i got a hold of jacob already and he said if i cant figure out how to get it out of protect then to send it in. i have double checked all my connections and they are good. i even checked my subs to see if they were blown and causing a short or something but they are fine. im running 0 gauge power wire and big3 and have the amp powering a pair of eclipse aluminums wired to a 1 ohm load. is there anything else i can do to test before i send it in? thanks chris

The Dual-2 SA-12s will be in stock shortly... likely within 7-14 days -- along with the second shipment of the Dual-4 version. I've had alot of people anxiously awaiting the Dual-2 version so I thought I would let everyone know

Has anyone used a Nightshade B Stock??? Is it worth the defect for the price or is it better just to go new?
