Sundown Audio

Just wondering if any of you guys had posted up a comprehensive review of the nightshade?? I've searched the forum a bit but haven't found much info on it other then its loud!! I was looking for any reviews in like the daily driving aspect of it/how it sounds/comparable subs/things along those lines. Hoping to see a good review up if you guys could!! Unless I missed something when I was searching through, but I couldn't find a full product review on it! So far things look good, but I was just hoping to see a bit more details about the subs listening style and how it sounded in daily driving.

well sunday i had a chance to fondle, grope (sp?), kiss...lick, oh and a whole LOTTA touching smelling ...gazing....i winked at it a few time and when i put it in 3 cubes sealed with 1 sundown 1500 @ 1ohm.....it was sex to my ear....i almost had an erection....i find myself rubbing it alot trying to get my rocks off....i let it lay on top of me....i should have made a porn movie it will be called "NITESHADE - WHO'S ROCKING UR DRAWS OFF?" I put it on the meter(tl mic).....and out the box and into a 3 cube sealed box withone saz1500 in the back of a 02 pathfinder ( sub facing back) it was able to do a 141 sealed at the glass on music....i belive i have that on video...i w…

So I got bored today and decided to test the Nightshades limits.. it was taking every note solid @ 1500watts without even breaking a sweat... So I droped it down to .5, lowered the gains a lil bit... testing it at typical music levels seemed to do pretty good.. a lil stress but nothing serious... put on Burning Up Chopped in Screwed... pretty much flexed the piss out of the car for 15 seconds and it started smelling bad... turned it down real quick. Put it back to 2ohms... played fine for a little and then gave out. Sooo Jacob any type of specialized recone I can get =D? I ripped her apart to find this...

Here is the deal... 5000-watt amplifier (SAZ-5000D) Factory rated specifications: ~4000 @ 13 volts ~5000 @ 14 volts ~7000 @ 18 volts As with the 3000D these are quite likely conservative at the lower voltages as we have found that the 3000Ds produce 3000 watts down to very low voltages. --- $1200 pre-order pricing ($2199 MSRP) 6 month standard warranty * 2 year discounted replacement warranty ** * - Not warrantied for 1/2 ohm operation - this is a given but I want to spell it out just in case. ** - Meaning if you blow it up you will get a replacement at a discount after sending in the blown amp - but it will not be a free replacement / repair like the standard warranty. D…

yah just curious if anybody has done any testing above 16.5v resting? possibly 1 ohm testing as well.

From what i've read, bass boost only sends an ugly, distorted signal to the sub. So should bass boost be set to zero, and only use the wired gain remote? Also, when using the gain remote, does it override the settings you have on the actual amp (the Gain knob on the amp)? Also, bass should be set to zero on the head unit, correct? Edit: Talking about the Saz-1500d here

images speak for themselves

Hey guys, Just for the record I do own, use and love a SAZ1500D. This was asked by my son's friend after seeing my amp, and listening what it could do powering my TC3000. He is planning a dual 10 inch box, has not bought woofers as of yet. true power output sound quality/control of woofers power delivered requirements (Stock Mazda 3 electrical) Is there a reason one of you gents and/or ladies would buy one or the other? I am posting this question because for a dealer specific forum, I have seen some very non biased responses. Also leave out the excellent customer service part of Jacob. I have tried to use that with this kid and it doesn't work. He is interested in b…

Just wanted to post up our team's results from this past weekend. Jeremy McCord Two 15" Sundown Nightshades and one Sundown 3000D on 80 amps of fusing. Drive-By 2 1st place with a 124.6 Drive-By best of show with the loudest Drive-by score of the day. Corey Mitchell One 12" PBX XS and one Sundown 1500D on 60 amps of fusing. Drive-By 1 1st place with a 120.4 Phat 12 award for the loudest system with a single 12" sub. For everyone that does not know, this is metered on the Termlab doing a 30 second average with the meter 6 feet outside of the vehicle. I did not get any pictures of the show because of the bad weather.

And pure sex is the only thing that descibes this lol. Hmmm... Nothing special lol But check out this bad boy Next to its lil lil brother, the SD-1v1, and its competition, the BTL. Chrome basket, black motor :drool: Woven Tinels And Jacob, you must be one picky person lol, I don't see any defects to my eye. This thing probally is going to get mounted inverted, it's too sexy to keep it hidden.

LET THE MADNESS BEGIN >

I want to know how do they get 66 Voltage in a car. I mean I am going to get a 300 amp alt, and two power master D3100, and a SAZ-3000D. How in the world can I find out how much Voltage am I going to give out before I purchase all these things. Also how is it possible to put the amp at .5 ohms? I don't know a lot about car audio, but this voltage thing is REALLY confusing me.

The SD-1 v.2 10" subwoofer is going on sale! Fantastic dual 4-ohm voice coil USA made driver. MSRP is $229 on these drivers but for the duration of this sale they are available for $150 shipped in the continental 48 states! You won't be able to find another fully USA manufactured driver that is as shallow and performs as well for near that price. Two of these would work nicely with an SAX-100.2 bridged at 4 ohms or an SAE-1000D running at 1 ohm!

Just finished wiring up my car and I'm kinda confused about the settings on the amp. Heres my setup: SAX 100.4 (#1) Bridged 1&2 = Left Mid Bridged 3&4 = Right Mid SAX 100.4 (#2) Ch 1 - Left Tweeter Ch 2 - Right Tweeter Ch 3&4 = Saved for future sub Ok from my previous installed with a Pioneer Premiere 860MP running actively, I know where I want my Xovers to be at, but I just dont know how set that on the amp. Its been four years since I last setup my system. I recently swapped headunits to a Pioneer Avic D3 and now will be going passive. Heres how I had it set on the 860MP: Low : LPF=50Hz Mids: HPF=63Hz / LPF=2kHz High: HPF=2.5kHz How would I adjust thos…

How many people like 8" woofers? I have drawn up a design for an 8" subwoofer as a fun side-project but I find myself liking the design more and more as I look it over! This is what I came up with, wondering who would be interested: FS = 23.6 Hz Qms = 2.55 Qes = 0.350 Qts = 0.308 VAS = 21.2 L RE = 3.32 Ohms Z = 4 ohms Le = 1.668 mH BL = 12.73 N/A Mms = 113.46 g XMAX = 12.2 mm one-way by 70% BL method Xmech = 18 mm (the coil will hit the back plate at 18mm) Power Handling = 200 watts RMS Sealed Box Specs: 0.185 ft^3 0.707 Qts Alignment F3 = 55 Hz Ported Box Specs: 0.50 ft^3 Tuning = 30 Hz F3 = 28 Hz ----- This driver would also make a pretty solid midbass driver up to 100 …

I'd figure i would post it instead of calling or emailing you jake anyways here is the question lets say i got two 3000D's and 2 15" subs dual 2ohm What would is the difference (if any) between a. 2 3000D's strapped to the subs (take the subs wire them to 1ohms and put the amps strapped) b. 2 3000D's one on each sub @ 1ohm each (take the subs wire them to 1 ohm and put an amp on each) I get this question quite often I would think that the strapped pair would have the advantage of equal gain control.. but is there a power advantage over another as well as an efficiency advantage

I didnt want to clutter up the thread that was talking about the upcoming E8 woofer but I had some questions about it in relation to other sized woofers. I can not find anyplace in my town that sells or even has 8 inch woofers on display so I can hear. I have no idea what kind of bass come from the 8 inch woofers. All I'm familar with is the bass that comes from my two 12 inch Cerwin Vegas in a sealed enclosure. I'm looking for something punchier (the bass from the 12s seems muddy) but I still want it to get as loud at the lower frequencies as my 12s do (so I'm looking at 4 of these E8s). I just need to know if the 8s will deliver this punchier bass....i'm assumin…

question 1: can this sub (12" version) take a 3000d at .5 ohm for burps? question 2: is a nsb90, powermaster d3100, and a 200amp irragi alt enough to burp the 3000d at .5 ohm?...agian, burps only...for daily driving i will wire it up to 2 ohms, but its gonna be at .5ohm for burps... thanks!

I'm wanting to purchase 2 saz-3000D's and I had a few questions about them... My first question was how do I order some? And the pricing of them? I live in colorado and I have no dealers of Sundown, so I'm pretty sure I would have to buy over the internet

After they are discontinued and replaced by the 2000? I plan on buying another in a few months and dont want to have to buy a completely different amp, would like to match the two.

Hey Guys....I recently installed a SAZ 1500D and I am now experiencing engine noise (a buzzing type of sound). I can unplug the RCA's from the SAZ and it goes away. I was told that I should ground both of my amps in the same place and that might help...Well, I've done that and it hasn't helped. Prior to installing the SAZ I had a JL Audio 500/1 and it didn't have any noise. I've even ugraded my BIG 3 and also ran some 1/0 gauge since installing the amp thinking that may help....But the noise still remains. The RCA's are new and I cannot imagine why they would make any noise since they didn't with my previous amp....Is there a possibility that the SAZ has something wr…

I posted these on a couple other forums and figured I might as well share them here. 2 Sundown NightShade 15s powered by a pair of Sundown SAZ-1500Ds. First hit. These are legal scores. (sealed up, mic on the windshield) After finding the right frequency. Door open, mic still on the windshield. Hardcore score. (door open, mic in the kick) This is in no way an spl setup. It plays music great and is already ripping my Explorer apart. The sunroof, that was previous glued & sealed shut, has ripped open and the mechanism that lifts & lowers it is completely trashed. The side windows are falling out. I'll be resealing the sunroof and side windows very soon…
