Sundown Audio

I just bought a sae-1000d and i will be hooking it up to 2 kicker DVC L5's. I really have no idea how to hook DVC subs to this amp. I know that the 1000d has two speaker outs, and didn't know if that would make this install easier or not. So, basically I am just wondering what the most productive way of hooking this up would be. Thanks!

Ok, so I just got a new 3000d and a 100.4. My HU only had front/rear, no sub pre-amp output. Question is, if I wire the front/rear to the 100.4, if i Use the channel 1/2 output to the 3000d, will I lose my ability to use the hp/lp settings on 1 and 2 or if I do use the hp/lp will it still send a full signal through the 1/2 output? Sorry if I am not being very clear.. front / rear from head unit into 1/2 and 3/4 of the 100.4 1/2 output to 1 on 3000d will using filter controls on 100.4 impact frequency output on 1/2 output channels?

Just wanted to post up some pictures from this past weekend from the the Carl Casper car show. This was a MECA 3X event and there were quite a few people there. Here is how Team Carlisle Acoustics did at the event Jeremy McCord 07 Scion TC with two 15" FI Q subs and one Sundown 3000D Modified 2 First place with a 148.5 Brent Howard 00 Ford F-150 with two Audioque 15" HDC3 subs with one Sundown 3000D Amateur Street 3 First Place with a 145.6 Seth Haney 99 Pontiac Firebird with two Memphis 10" M3 subs and one Sundown 1500D Amateur Street 1 Second Place with a 138.8 Corey Mitchell 05 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V with one FI Q 12" sub and one Sundown 1500D Street 1 PHAT 12 awar…

alright, can i set my remote gain to where full remote gain is peak for me. by setting the amp gain low, and having the remote gain hi will that mess the amp up or send a clipped signel i know with the hifonics you can not use the remote gain as a volume knob for the amp, but the hifonics remote gain for the goliath is a input adjuster, so it raises and lower the input signel, i wanna make sure my sundown can dothe job or not also jacob i got no sundown swag with my amp.... can i get a sticker or somthing:D and a flyer,

im adding another 1500 d to my setup and was wondering if i should run more 0gage wire to the back.ive got a 200 amp alt. with a yellow top up front and two batts. in the back.voltage is fine now.lowest at around 13.6 at full volume.ive upgraded my power wire from my alt. to battery and was wondering if i should run a wire from alt. to fuse by amps or add any wire or what to do to get maximum wattage.im running them at 1ohm each and will strap them later one.thanks for ur help guys.

I am wanting to use 2 of these for mid-bass and when I say mid bass i mean 80hz to about 350hz or so what type of enclosure should a try sealed or ported? Thanks, Brock

Just did a 157.2 w/ 1 3000d and 8 SI bm 10s 1987 VW golf think the concrete may have helped a lil bit

I tried to post this under the SSA shop section, but this should do it here as well. First, I am planning to order a Sundown 100.4 tomorrow or tuesday, from SSA depending on how fast my winning bidders pay up on ebay. What I need to know is, Can a set of JL audio XR653 and a set of JL audio XR650csi ( the 3-way set and the 2-way set) be okay on this amp. JL says the RMS on these sets is around 75 watts , and I hear the sundowns are underrated. Will I benefit from this amp, will it need to be ran at a minimal power to preserve these speaker sets? I have a 2007 FJ cruiser, the 3ways are installed already - in the front doors and dash, and the two set is on its way he…

Since we tore up the Nightshade proto I decided to have some fun showing off how strong the cone is. I cut the surround off so it would sit flat on the ground and had Justin (local sales rep) stand on the back of the voice coil: Just sits at around 350 pounds Neither the cone or the triple joint glue failed and he bounced up and down a bit while he was on there.

I like them too much. What do I do. Looking at them isn't helping. I need a show to go too.

Hey everyone, newbie member here. I was told to look into Sundown subwoofers by people that actually know what they're talking about in car audio - they said these things are good stuff. Value priced and high quality, and from what I hear the manufacturer is a real solid guy. My question is, how loud and clear are these things? I need some low end for the Polk Momo system I have in my Buick LeSabre, and after shopping around speaker brands I decided this was the way to go. But I don't want anything obnoxious, and I don't want anything that is going to require a huge box and big, conspicious amp. My big thing is keeping a clean, stock(ish) look with this system. That …

All I can say is wow. No exclamation points. No Caps. They would not do it justice. I have no numbers regarding SPL as am not sure where I would go nearby. I have not swapped out the interior speakers yet but did hook all of the factory speakers to a RF 500a2. I ran a positive and negative cable run of 1/0 Knuconceptz Kolossus cable. As temp power I ran two 4 gauge cables to the positive of the amp and a 1/0 ground. Alpine cda 9884 cd receiver and the Alpine RUX-C701/PXA-H701 controller processor combo. The sub is in a ported enclosure kinda on the large side. 3.6 cubic feet tuned to between 35-40 hertz. Not quite sure as I need to do a little more to finish the box and w…

I have no direct Sundown experience, I have read a lot of good things and I'm here to see what they have for my application. I have been researching amps for my newest upgrade from 10s to 12s and I wanted to get some suggestions. I have two 12" Cadence SE Solo Beast DR subs dual 2 ohm vc, 600 wrms / 1200 peak per sub. I would like to be at about 600@4ohms and 1200@2ohms if possible so that if I choose to I can run only one sub at a full 600wrms and potentially upgrade subs in the future. Sure I'd like to say that SQ is all I want but, not in the trunk, SPL is what a sub if for IMO. I would like to compare actual numbers, for example, I've considered only 13.6-13.8 volts …

Re-Wrapped the amps

Just swapped out my US Amps for some Sundown Audio amps. Sad to see the ol' faithful US Amps go, this was VERY hard to do. I must be a responsible sundown dealer and use the stuff that I sell. I did consider slapping a sundown sticker on the US Amp heatsinks. Old install I still have an Fi Q12 and the Sundown SAZ-1500D is my first ever class D amp. I metered at 140.5 db. Pretty damned good if you ask me for the bass eating BMW trunk. A 2.3db gain since I was metered using the sub brand new with a super stiff suspension. Measured by a termlab in the pass side kick panel. Peak freq was 47hz. The reading might be a little higher since I was inside. Electrical: Stock…

Thanks Jacob for all the help. http://www.titantalk.com/forums/titan-visu...eview-pics.html

topic says it all. i have a 3000 watt sundown, how mnay runs of 0 gauge should i make, i have one run now. ill run up to 3 runs of need be i have 3 yellow tops and 2 bl 15's

I'm going to be replacing my HiFonics BXi1606 with one of these amps...I currently have 0/1 guage running from the battery to a fused distro block that has (4) 4ga outputs...the length of the wire running from the fused distro block to the amp is about 12 inches...would it be okay to run 12 inches of 4ga to the power input of this amp?

I'm gearing up for the impending install in my SC400. I just ordered a 180a High Output alternator that should be here in a week or so. My tenative plan is to run 2 12" Fi Q's (D1 Ohm) on a SAZ-1500D. These will be running along side a JL450/4 for Mids/Highs. Am I going to be okay? Ohiogen, who is selling me the alternator, suggested I throw a Red Top in the back in addition to all of this but I don't want to if I don't have to, as it's just added weight and more money on top of the ~$550 alternator that I didn't want to have to buy in the first place.... It's a LSQ Install and I don't plan on blaring them in a parking lot with the key off or anything irresponsible. …

* More fins added to the side. * The main change, 10mm added height to add fins under the face. * Mirrored part number so that when you flip the "Sundown Audio" bar it looks the same as before. --- There we go Eventually the whole SAX and SAZ line will have this case.

Got a new car today... been wanting one for a while so pulled the trigger. Picked up a 2006 VW GTI 2.0T today Okay, so it's not NEW per-se... but it does look new, and it's new to me! It's time that I went back to a hatch-back vehicle to make me really happy again Pics soon! Once I get settled into the new Sundown warehouse in the coming weeks I'll start on the system.

Doing final wiring before i get to test out the system. On the manual for a single sub connection, it says to bridge to speaker +, on the speaker -, do i bridge that too? here's what the pic on the manual looks like hope i get the answer soon before the rain comes back thanks

I have 2 sd1v2 10", not sure how to connect the wires on this diagram above. Do I solder, crimp, or something? It shows to hook a wire + to + and -to- but do I have to put two wires in one sub terminal? http://www.jbl.com/car/product_support/Sub...aspx?type=2-4-1

is there any specific way of wiring a Fi Q into 1 ohm? Its the dual 2 ohm. Do I wire to one speaker terminal or both? wiring diagram will help.
