Sundown Audio

Ok so I have a stock Jetta 1999.5... I dont know if the provided link helps at ALL, but I really need to know something. http://www.the12volt.com/installbay/stereodetail/2191.html What would I need to upgrade to be able to get the most out of my SAZ 1500 without it like exploding or something. Lol obviously an exageration. But what would I need to do? And if at all possible perhaps a price range?... Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a ton, Devon P.S. Sorry if i violated some unwritten rule... Im new at this.

yesterday i was making a point............. i pulled out the old 2x15" box and barrowed my old T4 15" subs from my teammate first run 152.1db second run 153.1db third run 153.4db on 12v with the Missing link Audio device kicking it up too 15.2v was hoping Rexzilla would show up and see the Smerk on my face !!! he doe's 152db with a wall & 6 subs he made the comment that he had beat me !!! i think not if the best he can do is a 152db with 6 subs, he needs to go back to Usuck and play big shot there !!! wait till i get a second Sundown 3000d Tax return bebe edit : oh snapp i forgot to mention that i picked up 6- 8v batterys yesterday 16v here i come

In the manual, it shows it can be bridged to drive 2 subwoofers, but i want to just bridge it to power my Phoenix Gold RSD comps... If I bridge channels 1 & 2, 3 & 4, how would I connect my RCA's if I am only using the "front" outputs on my HU. Do I need a 1 female to 2 male splitter? to drive 1 & 3 left and 2 & 4 right? im a little confused at this point... thanks in advance for any help. Cody

So just got back from college and still having problems with my channel 2 on the amp. The tweeter goes on and off when i drive. It comes back after i shut the headunit off for any given amount of time - could be quick could be long. I checked the connection of the speaker and saw that it was not solid so i replaced the speaker wire and fixed the connection; nevertheless the tweeter still does not play. Any ideas? I have tried the same speaker on channel 1 and it works fine.

When can we be expecting the SAX 250.2 and what type of power would it do? .......rms X 2 @ 4ohm and rms X 2 @ 2ohm? and at what fuse rating?

Well, work started today on an install into the BMW. This is going to be a DC Audio/Sundown Audio demonstrator over here in the UK. The main thrust of todays work was to get the steel frame into position in the rear of the car, ready for the main woodwork to start going in tomorrow We have now got 5 runs of speaker cable down each side of the car, 2 0AWG ground, 2 x 0AWG power running down to the original chassis ground point and battery terminal. (the car has 1 x 0AWG run down from Alt to Battery as standard, may upgrade this if we fit a bigger alternator to it - 140 in there at the moment!), and 3 x RCA's going to the front.

So what am I looking at for draw on a 3000d at 2 ohms. I'm considering 4 of the sd1v2 10s (ok, I'm considering lots of different setups...anyways) Basically I don't want to pay out my ass on electrical and upgrade my alternator and take up alot of space for batteries. I got a Magnum which has a 160 amp alt stock. What can I get by for batteries. Will a single Powermaster 3100 do it. Almost forgot, front stage will be a pair of sax100.2's. Thanks.

ok is it possible to strap them at .5 nominal strictly for burping?? also how many batteries would i need to give them the juice they need?

What kind of power does the 100.4 make per channel at 8 ohms?

I'm about to purchase a 1500d from a guy that is local to me. I was just wondering what it takes to run this thing at .5 ohm. My electrical will be: Stock 140a alternator, Big 3 done Powermaster D3100 battery for the front Powermaster D680 for the back Is there any reason that i wouldnt be able to run the 1500 at .5 ohm daily?

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…

If i was to be running re audio components all around would the SAX-100.4 be able to power up those speakers pretty good?

Where should i set my ssf filter to on my saz-1500d? Using it to push a AQ hdc in a 3.5 cube box tuned to 38.

The final specs will look like this: Re = 3.37 ohms (4 ohm nominal) Fs = 34.9 hz Qes = 0.5323 Qms = 6.93 Qts = 0.4943 Vas = 7.6 L BL = 13.3 N/A Mms = 127.7 grams Cms = 162 um/N Xmax = 12mm one-way linear (70% BL method) Rated RMS Power = 200 watts Depth = 4.25" OD w/ gasket = 8 5/16" Cut Out = 7" Sealed Box: 0.280 ft^3 w/ F3 of 50 Hz (Qtc = 0.707) Ported Box: 0.60 ft^3 tuned to 30 Hz F3 of 25 Hz ----- So... anyone who wants to pre-order these can do so whenever they feel like it. I will continue to run the intro sale for a few weeks after they come in, so no hurry - but if the money is burning a hole in your pocket - order away! Paypal $65 each to sundownz@sundownaudio.…

My new SAZ-1500D (Jacob, you're the best!) came in via UPS today. It just occurred to me that nobody has posted pics of the new heatsink for this model, so here you go! This is a crappy picture, but it shows off the upper heatsink.

change my color from red to gray: deaden the whole car with Dynamat extreme new gear: head unit: alpine 9887 front speaker: Ciare CM161 midrange 6" 4pcs. ,CIare CW202 8" woofer 2pcs. , Ciare CT267 1" horn tweeter. subwoofer: 2 FI BTL18 fully loaded amp for front speakers: 2 Sundown audio SAX100.4 amp for sub: 2 SAZ3000D battery: 4 kinetik hc1800 wires: all by stinger processor: audiocontrol eql for front speakers box: 7cubic ft. tune @ 38hz here are the photo's: more hoto's to come

in the sticky where they did a test this is what was read Power supply voltage was 16.5 volts at rest dropping to around 14.5 volts. So consider this a 14.5 volt output rating. Our clamp meter ran out of steam at 400 amps so we measured efficiency at lower levels: 3294 watts @ 84% efficiency (252 amps draw) 3938 watts @ 81% efficiency (316 amps draw) 4424 watts @ 74% efficiency (392 amps draw) here is my question and i want to get a better understanding of this so bear with me for a minute..lol 3294 watts with 252 amps draw..now lets say your running 2 of the 3k watt models which would be 504 amps draw? and if your alt is only a 300 amp alt how does that work? im sure i h…

First off... I have to ask: will it be as efficient as a brand new one? Secondly... what voltage should I expect the true 1K RMS @ 1-ohm?

Pics with the little brother, the E8. Little more info and preliminary T/S specs: 2" coil x 1.57" winding height 1.57" tall magnet stack 0.5" thick top plate Gap Venting Basket Window Venting Pole Venting High profile foam surround Paper cone w/ interlocking poly dust cap Single spider w/ flat, tied down leads 16mm linear one-way x-max ~25 mm one-way x-mech (travel before damage) 300-watt RMS rated power handling Basket and motor will be BLACK for production. Chrome was easier for the prototype. Qes: 0.520 Qms: 4.720 Qts: 0.468 Fs: 32.30 Hz Vas: 55.63 L Re: 7.26 ohms BL: 19.47 N/A Le: 4.47 mH Specs w/ Coils in series - D4 nominal coils. Sealed box specs: 1.5 ft^3 = 0.7…

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.

I went to a meca event just to see what my setup would do and i was pleased i hit a 147.1 with 1 fi btl 18 and a saz 3000d peaking at 45hz

What's the highest voltage I can give a SAE-1000D and SAX-100.4? I'm giving them between 13.8 and 14.2 volts in park before voltage drop and the lowest I've seen it drop is 13.2 volts while playing at max. I'm considering a voltage regular for my EA 250A alternator. I may be adding another 1000D btw.

The bass knob for my SAE-1000D is really stiff and difficult to turn. I'm afraid that if I try to turn it it's going to rip the screws out of my cheap plastic dash. I have a Kicker bass knob that's much looser and easier to turn. Can I use the Kicker knob on my SAE-1000D?

All items back in stocks! SAZ-1500Ds and SAX-100.4s now feature the new heatsink design just like the SAZ-3000D!!! http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=14044

Due to your high-end products, I'm wondering if there are any production ideas involving multi-channel amplifiers a year or two down the road. Possibly a 150.4, 200.4 or maybe even a 5 channel? If so I would be greatly interested!
