Just for reference... please e-mail me. The delay on responding to PMs is annoying when I have 10 to answer so I am going to quit answering them once my box fills up again - please e-mail me.

I was just wondering if anyone else other than me had the thought of Jacob makeing any mids or highs?

I have a set of cdt 6 and half with upstage located in my doors and a pillars. They have an rms of 400. I have a 4.100 and would like to use it for them. It would be 320x2. I think I can run it bridged stereo with y adapters on the rca. My question is how do I set it up so that both channels are doing the same thing. The panel is a bit confusing to me. If I have both channels on high pass, what abou all the other controls?

Hey jacob, i was just wondering if u had got my email, i've been having problems with yahoo lately and havnt had a reply from ya since friday. I know ur busy but i was just wondering if u had gotten them, bc if not i gotta get a new email provider lol. so just hit me back whenever u get a chance. thanx.

Hey guys, Found out that at least some of the latest run of 1500s have the BR IN and BR OUT reversed. If you got one recently and plan to strap it I would check it out to see if you are affected. This has no effect on the regular inputs and is only important for strapping. This can be easily fixed DIY or you can actually just flip the cables to the opposite BR plug and just use it that way. If you want to fix them so that the labels on the side panel are correct this is what you do : * This one is correct - the cables go blue, black, black, green * This one is not correct - notice it goes green, black, black, blue * The plastic plug around the pins is backwards and the…

I got a sundown saz-1000d in trade.since dont have any subs yet i unhook my four channel amp to see if the amp worked. when i turn my radio on the fuses pop.i only hook up the power and ground the remote wire and the rca up.i was thinking it could be doing this because im using 8ga wire and i have a 80 amp fuse under the hood. when i hook my four channel amp back up to the same wires it works just fine. i went to the part store and to get my fuses and everyone pop on me.i replace the fuse with 25 amp fuses.what could be causing my fuses to pop?

This may be a dumb question but.......i saw on another thread about the 8" @150db talking about you running it on a 3500d @1 ohm and putting about 1500-1700 to it correct? But the 3500d is rated 3500 @1. Does it put out the 15-17 due to gain and volume turned down, or what? Also, i see people talking about running .5ohm daily, what kind of power does the 3500 put out there without clipping? what about 1 ohm @ 16v?

i was wondering when we should be expecting a full look (pics) and specs on the upcoming z 15 v2. and also is there gonna be a discount pre sale on them like ive seen before? im a new sundown enthusiast and am interested on some of there equipment. thanks for the reply

What are the differences in the Z v2 and the Z v3? I've sifted through the forum with no luck. Have not found a lot of info on the v2..(may have over looked it)

what electrical upgrades will i need to run a sundown saz-1500d in my 97 s-10?

In case anyone sent me an important e-mail last night... I didn't get it. I had 1350 spam e-mail this morning and went through and deleted them... I did not find a single valid e-mail out of all of that, so I suspect maybe I deleted something important. So... re-send anything important that you sent me last night =)

I've destroyed these... On one the motor broke off from the basket, so I'm looking at getting 14-18 re-cones or so...thanks jacob. I think that was the name. The bass is getting to me.

Back from SBN so time to start catching up - had a good time !

well im bored and feel like writing a bit lol so i wanna say that this amp works great @ .35 ohms...im burping with it and it can take numerous burps without even getting hot, the volume doesnt have to be rolled cause it wont go to protection. I was doing 140-141 with it @ 1.4 ohms and when i lowered it to .35 my # goes up to 145-146. also the amp is pretty efficient @ .35, my volt goes down to 12.8 without recharging batts. also the amp can play music/bassrace fine with it...i bassraced a 139.6 with it(the damn bass ended 2 sec. before the run :S) , it also plays music fine, i played 3 full songs and THE amp took it like a champ...anyways im not telling everyone to go on…

Just wondering if any Sundown supporters are close to ND? Minn, MT, SD, Iowa, Wy, Canada....anyone close?

Does anyone have pics of these amps, close-ups of each end and internals in particular.

what size wire does it take i thought i saw 1/0 awg some where but cant remember . ugggh i feel like a trying to get everything to come around the same time so maybe i can get my system up and running in a couple months

i have been looking at getting an 12" fi ssd and its rated at 800 rms. I have also been lookin at amps and everyone has something good to say about sundown. Would the sundown sae 1200d be a good choice for the 12" fi ssd? thanks

my best friend just pick up 2 sundown saz 1500ds and he was wondering if its better to strap these amp or just run each amp to each sub? i tried to tell him it would be better from to just strap them. the sub he will be using is 2 fi bl 18's which he will be getting around xmas time

Think the subs would be able to handle that kinda power birth sheet is 3303rms at 1 ohm and thats what i would wire them to box would around .75 cubes per sub tuned to 36 htz maybe a lil lower looking to be louder than the btl 15

I occasionally build custom drivers on non-Sundown platforms by request -- few pictures to share These use the Z v.2 light weight 15" cone, Z v.2 production voice coils, Z v.2 production "2 spider" pack, an additional re-enforcement ring at the triple joint, stock T3 TSS frame and motor. With this cone the factory trim ring can also be used unlike the last TSS I built with the wide roll surround. * Top triple joint * Factory trim ring in place * Triple joint ring between cone and spiders. This cone is a bit shallower so there is room between the cone and spider. * The second one being built... this is my spider press rig to make sure the spiders stick well to one ano…

i got this sundown audio E8 with coil rub and i was wanting to know if sundown made a recone and if they do how much?

ok so i got my self a 3000d and am waiting on my fi q 15" D2 to come. i was wondering if i ever expand to a seconded one if i could run the 2 at .5 at around 2400 watts and not piss off the amp for daily use. other than that any tuning suggestion for the single fi Q besides don't crank the gain knob all the way up. and if u use a dmm what should it read for 1100 - 1200 watts, at the moment it says a bought 70V but that dos not sound right it would have blown my 100A fuse by now it that was true. thank you for your time.

Just a little tip - it may be easier to buy a new frame than try to get the bolt down ring off the SA-8 frame on the new ones. I do have frames in stock for them. Plus side... the spider will NOT be coming off any time soon if you don't want it to. Here is one we removed this morning : As you can imagine it didn't come off easily. It is glued under the spiders, bolted through the frame, and epoxied on top.
