Cool! :)

Cool, is that box sealed or ported ? Looks big enough to port them.

No, the epoxy will just keep it from pulling your spiders off when it does Obvious an 8" driver with a relatively small spider will eventually run out of travel - and with a strong motor it can hurt something.

You won't be able to bottom out the coil - you'll just lock up the suspension around 14-15 mm or so one-way. The coil is still a good distance away from the back plate.

It's all posted here: http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=17005

Nope. I don't really have anything to set them up in that way.

The first thing that will happen if you over power them is popping your spider off - that is easy enough to fix. It is hard to bottom them out or cook them thermally, so I wouldn't worry about either of those too much. The motor is still quite strong at the suspension limits - this is why I suggested adding epoxy when running over the rated RMS power. That way even if you lock up the suspension hard you won't pull them off to begin with. I'm looking into stronger glue for my next run - as I have burped these with ~800 watts when assembled with epoxy Before shipment I do test each driver with ~120 watts free air and add a short burst up to 175-200 watts or so to test for mechanical integrity. It will take quite a bit to pull your spider off since they all pass my testing before shipment, but I like to err on the side of caution when advising how to run a driver.

Thats all you really need for em. If you want to have the ZX2500.1 on hand for headroom that is okay too. Thermally they are REALLY strong, but you run out of throw in a reasonable sized box on music that goes down low.

They do quite nicely with 200-watts each. Thermally they will take more - mechanically they don't really need it. PS: If you really intend to run quite a bit over 200-watts I'd lay down some 5-minute epoxy around the spider as you will run the risk of reaching suspension limits which will put alot of stress on the spider landing glue when the spider "locks up" and may tear it off.

Cool Looks like they made it intact!

Looks like I will hold off until I can develop something with the new build house in a more compact size.

Added one used SAE-1000D for $245

Offer still stands! Only 10 more days.

They are here.

Looks like they should be coming in today - so most likely the pre-orders will ship tomorrow.

That is correct. Two sets of four (four in parallel for 1 ohm) then in series for 2 ohms.

Trail, http://www.tech12volt.com - one of my dealers, he does a TON of truck boxes - he may have some advice for you. The E8s will probably be in stock next week.

Prospects for a new job. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/prospect -- 6 a: a potential buyer or customer b: a likely candidate for a job or position Ya know!

Bummer ! Any prospects ?

Indeed

Yep, 105 amps -- 35 x 3 fuses. It is a hair bit more powerful than the existing 1000D model. I may have to continue to offer the old 1000D for those that seriously need a smaller amp - I'll keep asking around with customers and dealers about it.

http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=17913 --- I have a replacement candidate for the SAE-1000D... same build house as the upcoming SAE-1200D model. I would call this the SAE-800D model. Here is the question... how many people buy the SAE-1000D for the small form factor? The current SAE-800D prototype is the same size as the SAE-1200D (as big as the SAZ-1500D). It would cost less than the current SAE-1000D but is substantially bigger - it's just not as compact of a PCB design. The benefit is that it has an even beefier design so all the components are even less taxed than the already super reliable SAE-1000D. The new build house doesn't like the idea of making a small form factor amp - it is not something they are used to doing, so it would greatly speed up the release of the less expensive SAE-800D model if I made it large. PS: Just clamped the prototype on music at 1 ohm nominal / 2 ohms actual... 800 watts continuous at 2 ohms actual after rise
