Sundown Audio

Well UPS finally came and dropped off my new baby in one piece...I must say, this sub is a monster. It looks like it could just devour my old type argghs! So I almost got the build complete, just gotta finish up my box and I'm good to go...had to wait on my ports which I also got today as well. I guess you can say it was a good day though. Thanks Jacob for the beefy a$$ sub, I LIKE!

Thanks for the great amps. I finally put the amps I ordered from you in my ride and they work great just wanted to say thanks for a great product.

I see that it says 160x4 at 2 ohms. This might be stupid question, but i havent ever had any 2 ohm speakers, but the RE XXX comps are 2 ohm. Can 2 channels run 2 ohm and the other 2 run 4 ohm? Or should i run 2 sets of xxx components? thanks for help before i order

well, i ordered both my amps earlier this week, and sundown has very fast shipping. Hopefully will have everything hooked up in couple weeks, it will be hard to wait, but i will be working 7 days a week for at least 2 weeks. Pics and new cd player came in also today:

are you going to do another sale like that on the saz1500d ?

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I JUST BOUGHT A SUNDOWN SAZ3000D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M KINDA EXCITED FOR IT...

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

http://www.db-r.com/sell/store/index.php?productID=144 Old style - $260 http://www.db-r.com/sell/store/index.php?productID=194 New style - $275 ----- Limited supply, get them while they last

here are some pics of the event i couldnt take part since i killed the solo x while testing, because one amp gone in protection while burping a 148, maybe 2 optimas arent enough to run strapped 3ks at 0,5ohm each? waiting for the spair and gonna try it again with better batteries. it was one of the biggest car audio events in germany over 200 competitors in db drag, db cup, bass race, spl classics and AYA many broken world records in cup and drag

Well I got a trophy for loudest at the show! Contest was your 30 second average score on music (if that makes sense). I did a 145 flat average 30 seconds. I burped a 148 at 46hz. But that was after beating them ALL DAY long. System consisted of 2 Sundown 1500ds. 2 15" Fully loaded Fi Bl's wired to 1ohm each

I am offering up people to listen Sundown products in Centrla/S. California. I am now a firm believer in Sundown and am willing to let anyone that wants to listen to my SQ orientated truck running the 100.4 and 1500D. Keep in mind this is a SQ truck with the ability to get to decent loud volumes. I am a Sq compeitor and hence my reasoning about setting up Sundown amps in that fashion. I look at it this way, if I can make it sound good, REALLY GOOD, and do it at 2 ohms and not take advantage of dropping the impedence for full power then I think you can imagine the "output" with full power. I am still thinking about building up a DB car to show the true impact of this …

so i just purchased one of the two remaining old heatsink saz-1500d refurbs from chris @ db-r. the shopping experience was great and the price was too good to pass up. i guess im a sundown fan now the hard part is going to be containing my excitement while it gets shipped here to calif.

what is the difference on the new heatsink models of the 1500d's and how does it make it better or was it done cause im considering which one to get and i cant seem to find one on db-r that is a new heatsink and am wondering if its worth the wait to get the new heatsink or if the oldones are just as good

well, i got on here for bout the last year, and decided i wanted to get back into some stereo's. Anyway last week i ordered a 12" BL with options, and decided to go ahead and get my amps too. So, I just ordered a saz-1500D and a SAX-100.4. I am anxious to get all hooked up, I have always bought stuff locally or a few things from woofersetc.com. So, pretty excited to try something besides kicker, alpine, mtx, crossfire, jl, or rockford. Thats bout all there is here. Will post pics when i get them. Thanks sundown, again

I would like to know exactly what it takes on voltage wise and battery wise to run my 3000ds at .5ohm daily to my 2 15" BTL's. Or what would be the best way for me to go to get excellent power from them 3000's. Any input would be great, strapping or wiring to .5ohm since when you factor in imp rise and all that. Thanks everyone

have a set of dual 2ohm subs. that i will later switch out to a single set up. my question is how safe could run a saz1500 at .5 ohms on them until i switch over ? or should i just wire them to 2ohms and put up with less power. to be safe.

Vaperz Southern Slam was a blast!! Here are the numbers the Team put up at the show. Only 2 of us went the other went to HOT IMPORT NIGHT'S the night before. I was demoing the truck and lost 4 sub's. That still didn't stop me from showing. So here's the numbers.. ROBERT WYATT ModeX + 1st place SQ SQ Phat Truck SQ Phat Install SPL-- Radical X2- 1st place 150.6 Drive-by --- Db5- 1st place 125.5 Most Improved SPL Best of Show Drive-By Best of Show Over All Best of Best of Show TODD MAYTON SPL--AS3 1st place 145.5 Drive-by--Db3-1st place 121.0 second highest score of the day SPL Phat Install All in all the Show was fun even with GIRL'S in the BIKIN…

well this is what i have im gonna use the saz at .35 so ill be posting numbers of how much power it does (if i find a clampmeter ) and how does it perform. Battery power FTMFW new bussbar:D and last but deff. not least my recone for my DD 9515 ...i bought a new basket also

I have dual 1ohm subs...was looking to do 2-3000Ds strapped @ 1ohm but was told that I would benefit more from 4-1500s. Im still undecided if I want to go with a Atomic 7K or get 4 refurbished 1500Ds. What kinda power do u think Id get out of 4 with a 250amp alt, 2 runs of 2/0 welding cable, 1 Deka 9A78DT up front and 3-9A31s in the rear? Do u think Id get more out of the Atomic or 4 1500s, both are around the same price....(I know this is a Sundown thread but please be honest)

Went to our local TBP event here in Fort Worth(other side of world for me)....100 mile round trip... Threw in 1 of my Sundown Audio 3000D's with all 3 DEKA 9A31's and 2 12" JBL Power Series subwoofers in a 34Hz box with a final impedance of 2 ohm at the amplfier...Decided I wanted to burp them....so I pulled up in the lanes....and burped a 147.0 and a 147.3 which was barely enough to scrape out 1st place....2nd place did a 147.1... I was pretty happy for what I was running and how I had it set-up, it did higher than I predicted.... I'm going to fiberglass this enclosure, and cut the port to about 45Hz, and burp me a 150+.... It's going to be something to see.. One of my…

Just wanted to say thanks to Jacob for this B Stock 15" Nightshade. Came in about 1 day, and UPS managed to get it here in one piece(which isnt always the case). Its def one of the larger drivers i have seen 1st hand. It'll be going in a box slightly under 4cuft tuned to 40hz for spl off a SAZ 1500D. Ill follow up with a review in the following days. Here are a couple pics i took right out of the box. Again thanks Jacob.

For the 2 18" mts in the mini.. Main problem is electrical. Not sure on it yet.. I'm most likely going to get one 3000d first (due to money) so I can run it @ .5 to both subs. Then if I feel the need, I can get another, and switch it up to both amps strapped @ 2 ohms for both subs. Subs are dual 2. What do you guys think? Mids and highs amp will also consist of two 100.2s, and one 100.4.

Hello Jacob and all of the Sundown community, Very new here, and thanks for having me. There seems to be an ambient thermal issue and was looking for some advice. I have my 1500d mounted on the back fold-down seat in a 2003 Pontiac Grand Am SE1. The problem is, the temperatures here are peaking @ triple digits here lately, and average temps are around 98F-99F. Well, when I get in the car (usually around noon, lunch break), the amp is already hot, I cant leave my hand on it more than about 5-10 seconds. This is because I leave my seat folded down and the direct sunlight is shinning on the amp, however, if I have the seats folded up, and let it down when I take my lunch br…

I am nearly finished building my amp rack but recently read quite a few things about amps getting hot and going into thermal protection and got me thinking. I know there is very little airflow if any over my amps due to how my amp rack is setup and the amps being right behind the back seat. Has anyone added fans to their amps to try and keep them cool, any tips on how to go about doing this? I was wondering about maybe removing the bottom cover and just aiming a fan like a 80mm or 120mm computer case fan at the innards of the amp, or maybe machining the bottom cover to hold an exhaust fan inside the amp. I figured I could wire them up with a relay off the remote turn on l…

so, ive ordered 2 saz3000d and jacob realy helped me a lot to get them here he realy is a great guy and also the amps are absolutely beautiful they are here since wednesday, but i didnt had any time to put them in the car but i realy wanted to test them, thats why i build a amprack and put them in the car yesterday, i know, i doenst look good, but it was made in 15mins so the amps are GREAT, amazing build quality and they realy put out some power, to be precise, ive killed my mt yesterday while playing music..... but damn it was loud just a quick shot of the amps
