  1. I'm curious to see how long it will survive. My zcons ran off one coil each sub one 14k for a week straight and I don't take it easy. Lol ok, I'll think about it, I think even with gain all the way down to zero, it will still see 4-5k at normal listening levels lol. Thats a pretty bold claim considering the gain is not a volume knob.
  2. And stop using the same screw hole
  3. Ive heard of a few DC amps going bad so your not the only one, hope it all gets worked out soon.
  4. X2 please rewire that power and ground wire going into the amp.
  5. They are the same amps and same buildhouse, Jacob discontinued the amp for that reason resulting in him tooling/designing all of his amps now. People copying the success of the saz-4500 and putting a 5000 or 5500 model number on the case, this has been discussed on multiple threads on multiple forums showing the amps performing similar.
  6. His question could of been answered two or three pages ago if people weren't trying to be know it alls who act like they couldnt help. Yes you can use one of those Kicker kx3, you wont have full active capabilities such as different slopes/time alignment or etc. It will let you get by till you can get the appropriate processor or headunit.
  7. Minus well keep it all Sundown unless the Nendo was cheaper.
  8. Have you installed the amp yet? I get mine tomorrow, hopefully i can get it installed on Friday if it doesnt rain.
  9. Good deal, nice looking setup you have there.
  10. Sweet, glad to hear it worked out for you in the end now somebody has some worked to do.
  11. Nice update, sucks about the subs but at leats you had some replacement subs on hand.
  12. Nice! ricksi, is that now a SP4 are your avatar???????????????????? No it is his old Zcon. Back on topic, sounds like a good plan you have. 4 subs will probably like that 14k more than 2 subs would.
  13. Just caused they are designed by the same person doesn not mean they share the same design. Different subs with different goal that share a common rms number or price tag (give or take a few bucks).
  14. I get the regular wire, all 1/0 I have used has been flexible. Even welding supply's 4/0 is flexible
  15. There are plenty of sites that sell welding cable, I use weldingsupply.com
  16. Yes the grills from parts-express will work, i use them on my Neo 8s.
  17. That comparison can be used for any manufacturer. Exactly, but not all have triple digit percentage mark up's. Crescendo has triple digit percentage marks ups? I have owned Crescendo products. I have also delt with their customer service. From my experience their products perform as intended and when I needed contact customer support thier response was timely and helpful. I have nothing bad to say about Crescendo products or Crescendoas a company. This isnt based hersay or speculation but rather from my experience. When you get in the industry, you know what other people pay for things. As is common knowledge, the chinese products are FAR cheaper than the States, and yes, some of their products yield triple digit markups. Now, they may have more overhead or other things to pay for, hence their pricing structure, but they are still paying less. You would be surprised to see the build cost on some products. Amplifiers and speakers can easily be built for under $20 and sold for hundreds. It's the way of the world. I spent a while building alternators and if you know how much you could build your own alt for, you would NEVER give your money to any manufacturer. A lot of people dont understand the business side of things, everything you buy that is mass produced cost next to nothing to make and sells for an arm and leg.
  18. I sold my Sundown SAX-125.2 yesterday and ordered the Cadence F400-4 since I needed a 4 channel amplifier, its funny you posted this today. I liked my Cadence sub amp so i decided to try out one of their amps for my front stage. Your pictures look better than any that I have found online.
  19. What made you go the Selenium route? Can't wait to see what you have planned for the front stage.
  20. You should be able to get those terminals from anywhere that sells batteries, I got mine from Autozone.
  21. Send Aaron or Mark a pm about this issue and I'm sure they will get them up on the store, they probably just haven't got all the info from IA yet.
  22. 150dB on the dash, sealed up, with that gear in a KJ ? Jeep Liberty. On the dash, sealed up ? Yes but, I did it on music with my sold term lab. Its to loud for a dailly driver. To much sheet metal flex. Yeah right, not saying it isn't possible. Any pics or videos to prove this, would love to see some. How was it metered as well, at what frequency?
  23. Your killing me smalls.
