Sundown Audio

Thinking of a change from the BTL and going to 2 15s before I sell the whole car next year... I always wanted to give them a run... And sundown amps are the chit so the subs can't be far behind... If I need bigger I have room. Car is a 02 caddy deville. blow through type design or sealed off from the trunk is the way I wanna go. Just waiting on the new 100.4 and I'm done

I still have mine, and alls good at the moment. Thinking about getting another amp. Curious about them because I didn't see them on your new site. (since the last time I've seen it)

ok, so i've got a saz1500d, i'm going to get a chevy impala 00-04, i gave the gf the type r 12"s i originally had in my lincoln towncar, i'm thinking single 15" for the next set-up so i can give it the box space it needs. would a single nightshade 15" w/1500 rms in an optimal vented and tuned enclosure put me in the mid to high 140's?

Now you can do just about anything with it! A little SAX-100.4 history: SAX-100.4 -- Original model SAX-100.4B -- Updated crossover ranges SAX-100.4C -- Upgraded from 50-amp to 70-amp power supply transistors SAX-100.4D -- This is the newest model ----- The following functionality will be had with the crossovers: ALL CHANNELS: Subsonic @ 10 Hz - 500 Hz (always on, can be used as the HPF for a band-pass setup in conjunction with the LPF) HPF @ 50 Hz - 500 Hz w/ x10 button (selectable 12dB / 24dB slope) LPF @ 50 Hz - 500 Hz w/ x10 button (selectable 12dB / 24dB slope) ----- So, what will you be able to do with the new model that you couldn't do before ? 1) You can bridge th…

Never owned Sundown before but I researched for almost a month all kinds of amplifiers. Price wasn't as big of a concern to me as quality. I read countless posts about Sundown on the internet and never came across a single negative about them. So I decided I'd power my system with Sundown. I preordered the SAE-1200D knowing I'd have to wait a month or so to get it. That was a tough decision too because I hate to wait. I paid for that last night and today I go to check my e-mail and I see a UPS tracking notification. I then see another e-mail from Jacob Fuller which says he is sending me my SAE-1200D already! They say 1st impressions mean a lot and I have to say my 1st im…

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

I live in ct. and am willing to help others set up thier amps and head units with my o-scope. it makes a difference knowing exactaly when you have distortion or clipping. if i can save even 1 good sub from death it will be worth it. i dont have alot of time on my hands but will help when i can.

I'll throw up a few pics tomorrow. We still have it in the ghetto test box, but it actually sounds quite good... two 1500s strapped @ 2 ohms are powering it, I have my primary battery, factory alternator, and two Powermaster D3100s backing them up. Metered 144.1 dB @ 52 Hz in the test box - which is really terrible on the meter - same box in the YouTube videos of the monster. I'd like to get it into a smaller box and strap the 1500s down really low and see what she'll do - then strap some 3000s on it What surprised me the most is how good it sounds - obviously its not an SQ woofer but, it sounds quite good. Certainly does not sound like an extreme fart-cannon sub by any …

A few vids ...just messing around ....new one coming this week

well i went to a db drag show over the weekend....it was my first time with the new amps... bass raced at a 155.3 not too bad.. the amps work great.. but my voltage was kinda suckin.. 11.5 voltz full tilt.... workin on getting more batts and another alt.. funny thing.. i did that number with my main RCA's falling out..i only had one in when i bass raced !! maybe i could have done a 156 with both plugged in.....oh well.. good weeknd .......... lil-john

As of today i finally have 99% of my wiring finished for my second externally regulated alt. Im going to get a volt meter of some sort so i know exactly where I'm sitting at voltage wise at all times (just in case the knob is bumped or any other unforseen issues) So for the next week or so im going to have a very small fuse on both the alt wire and amp wires just to be extra safe. I was just wondering how many of you guys are running the 3000d at 16v (18.8)? and if there's any thing i should know? I'm trying to be as cautious as possible to make sure nothing goes wrong but i thought id ask for advice from the experts

Is there an easy way to make one of the wired remotes into a master volume control for all of my 100.2s? My HU doesn't have a knob. I like knobs.

New build for Finals, Hope you enjoy! Will Post TL Results Next Sunday!

So, i was on 2 events yesterday my setup was 2 optimas, one in front, one in back 2/0 wiring between the bats and to the amp 1 Sundown SAZ3k on 1 RE SX12 D2 first event 1st place DB Cup Beginner D with 144,5Db 2nd place DB Drag Street C with 144.5DB 2nd place Bassrace with a 129.6 (first try ever) 2nd event 1st place Beginner D with a 145,2DB 2nd place Street C with a 144,6DB everything legal at the windshield meterd with termlab next event in 1 week, try to work on the port and see if i can do any better edit: 2nd place street c, not d sorry ^^

Hey jacob my wife lost the original invoice from when i purchased the 100.4, 100.2, 3 3000ds back in january. i was wondering what i could do to get my amp (100.4) warrantied since its still covered. channel number 4 is out straight out of the box. any help would be great. i figured it would be easier to contact u on the forum than by PM since u probably get 9 million emails a day. thanks very much. Name - Richard Veach Lafayette IN 47904 maybe that info will help.

First time posting here, but have been reading up on Sundown for the past few months and have like everything I've read so far. So a month ago I purchased two brand new SAZ-3000Ds and they are strapped together to make a 6000W monster. Well I was trying to do some no load gain settings like I have done in the past on other amplifiers. I have three Powermaster D3100 batteries with 1/0AWG cable between each as well as 1/0AWG cable for Pos and Neg to each amplifier. Also I have double runs of 8AWG between each amp as well. I set all controls for both amps to zero connected my sub out RCA from my HU to the master amp and the BR out to the BR in of the slave amp. I place…

while the saz3000 says 6v-0.2v for the gain, does addin a line driver which puts out 9v is not safe?

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.

I took 1st on a dbdrag event at a big autoshow that took place this weekend. i did 145.1 @ 55hz later ill post pics of the trophy

Need some opinions! I am gonna be running a 3000d. I am gonna have good electrical. Should I stick with the 1ohm load and see what kind of power I can get out not dropping below 13 volts or since I have the electrical to back it up go with .5? What kinda power difference will I see?

i bought this chevy asto last june. this demo car will join the Manila Auto Salon 2008 @ SM Mall Of Asia and IASCA IDBL on Nov. 2008 this is the one responsible for my car paint and airbrush astroboy make over. what's this??? sundown and fi logo DC and FI logo(that's me on the right)

Well, after ordering a SAE1000D from Db-r my boy couldn't wait to do the car he would like to call his (of course I make the dang payments). We mounted a Pioneer Premier head unit. Clarion Pro Audio 4 channel amp Alpine components in the front doors an ancient MTX 3 10 inch sub box and the Sundown amp. I ordered 4 E8's from Mike and when they get in it will be either order a box or build one. Still need to get some loom to neaten up the wires but not a bad little install for 3 hours work. I have got to say the Sundown is powering the MTX box well. The box sits at 4 ohm so the output is around 300 watts. It hits hard! When we installed the stereo last Sunday, I did everyth…

I hope this isn't a stupid question. A friend of mine has the SAE-1000D and wants to run it at 2 ohms to power his pair of JL Audio W3v3 13.5s with 600 watts until he has the money to get the electrical upgrades he needs for his car. He bought the amp so he could expand his system when ready. Right now he has a Batcap 800. He eventually wants to get a bigger alternator and 2 good drycell batteries in place of the Batcap and a 2nd SAE-1000D and 2 Icon 15s, but for the time being just wants to use his JLs. How should he treat his gain for the JLs being the amp is going to be ran at 2ohms rather than the amps max at 1ohms?

I am trying to figure out how the night shades compare to the digital design subs for a spl vehicle. I am wanting to know how loud the night shades are to the dd subs. with the same rms levels. I guess i would like a comparison btw the 9500 series and the 3500 series against the night shades. Any one with some experience here?
