SA-6.5CSv.2
sideshow_kustom replied to sideshow_kustom's topic in Sundown Audio - GREAT Amps/Subs! GREAT Customer Service!
I have installed them & LOVE how they sound & fit my build. The 6.5 was a direct drop bolt in in the place of my CT Sounds 6.5. I cut a hole for the flush mount tweeter to fit. I must add that the Tweeters are AMAZING! The fit and the retaining nut on the back side of it is VERY nice! The Bullet tweeter I already had there & is still active although I could of removed it and placed the Sundown Tweeter in the hole I decided to keep it in there! Had a perfect place to hide the crossover!!!! Not sure if this video will play. It is on my Face-Book page. I will put it on You-Tube soon if it don't play. https://www.facebook.com/#!/ronnie.smith.961993/videos/vb.100000304041051/1004857226201069/?type=3&theater -

I will install them in Bis-Kwik tomorrow & test with them! I will post on the results -
SO after the wait I finally got my SA-6.5CSv.2 Component set today! I was so excited over it I took some pics opening them up! I will say this Sundown didn't cut ANY expense on these. They look amazing with VERY nice features! I'll just let the pics speak for me!

I've got another idea to run by the guy that builds my box. I SURE want to stay with the double Kerfed box! It would be more work on him BUT then again that's more money in his pocket! I don't mind paying for what I want! Hope what I'm thinking will work. I'll draw it up this evening & send to him to look over so we can go from there!

I don't care how it performs. this is cool no matter what This port Concept might not go through! The guy that builds my box's has done some research & with a doubled kerfed port like this the width of the box & the required port area I need for the tuning I want will make the port too narrow and cause a LOT of port noise from what I'm being told! With the port being 33" wide it would only be a 2" slot port basicly and cause drag on the air flow & try to act like a sealed box. Soooo we are kicking the idea of one large Octagon Port & 7" Diameter with a 10" Flare. Still kicking the idea around! But it would look something like this!

So I think I have PEAKED on this build with the 10 X6.5's in the 4th order. Time to try something a little different so to speak. I thnik this little monsters will perform better in a ported box. So if I'm going to try another box I will add more to the mix! I've got 14 of them so why the hell not!!!!! This is a concept build I have came up with for it. Will fit in the same location just more sub's! Now don't get me wrong the 4th did good! 142.2@48Hz sealed on the dash was a fair number for the location of the box and size of my Wagon. But here is the general idea I have. Now I haven't added any braces & I know the port dimensions will change. I'm new to drawing box's so I just threw thos numbers in there.

Nothing like getting to work only to find out one of your machines caught on fire last nigh! Now I've been working on it all day covered in burnt up fiberglass & resin! JOY!

HECK YEAH there will be pictures! All the stuff I made years ago when I was doing Hydraulics on cars & installing system's I skipped out on the pictures! Now most of them are just memories! I do have a bunch of older pics of some of my work but not NO where near as much as I've done.

An idle mind is a dangerous MIND! Well at least mine is!

Heck I'm glad to be back! Didn't know that dang IE would keep me from pasting stuff on here Google Chrome took care of that!
-
IE is crap period, worst, most vulnerable, slowest browser period!
-
Would have to 100% agree with that!
-
Need some help here!!!!! I haven't posted much in a while now cause I can't add pic's! I bought a new Laptop (hewlett packard) running Windows 8.1. Ever since I got it I can no longer paste any thing on here so I can't add no new photos in my build log! Can someone help me with this!

-
Do u glue your seals?

Well I guess I'm just going to break down & buy a Term-Lab from the local shop today. Hate having to go to someone else to meter my stuff when I make changes so it's TIME to bite the bullet!
-
I do not regret getting mine. It will make your life easier for sure
-
I know! I hated every time I changed something I had to wait to get someone to meter it for me to see if I helped it or hurt it! But not now! I just got home with it!
-
ill keep mine for ever.... one of those tools, you just need.... imho

We can do that! I don't think I can squeeze any more out of that RF 2500!
-

-
I'll hit you up on FB when I get to the house later on today

Did some more testing today. Creeping up some, gained 1.5db's! I shrunk the sealed chamber and worked on the rear gate some. Same RF T2500 @1.6ohms, meter on the Wind-Sheild did a 142.2@48Hz. Looking for that 145!

Jared Gibson designed the box for me.
