Oh yah Z v.2 for the win !
Wait til I get my 300a alternator back in and add more batteries. I think 152+ is very possible. Right now there is only one extra battery in the back (damn featherweight BassBoxing rules). Voltage drops to 12flat.
-
Did some testing today. End result was a 151.5. Still with just one saz-3500d.
I'm happy.
-
Is that box that they're in one of the one's that you built for Danny's Kia?
Yes
was that 44hzMy truck peaks at 53hz.
-
Man, Derrick, that box came out really nice. Do you plan on covering it with anything?
Thanks. I'll be painting it.
-
Got my new box built today. It works MUCH better.
Because I had to move the amps to the back of the truck my rcas weren't long enough. Using some y-splitters as a ghetto extension I was able to get one amp going. With only one saz-3500d @ 1ohm on both subs it hit a 149.1 on the TL. Did the same exact # playing some music too.
-
that thing moves! Love the looks too!... what max wattage for burp on these babies?
Jacob has tested his single Z v.2 15" with 10,000watt burps. No issues. If you need it to handle that kind of power let him know so he can build it accordingly.
-
I can always count on Derrick to put silly amounts of power on things for me *laughs*
Adding two more 3500s and 0.25ohm burps coming after SBN.

Only one quick vid for now. Can't get volume to full tilt yet (waiting on a new alternator to come in) but I can tell you that these things are moooovvvviiiing.

Not enough time to build my new box this morning so I through them in another I had laying around the shop.
They are being powered by a pair of saz-3500s @ 0.5ohm each.
Vids coming.
-
If you're only concerned about sounding good then the lvl4s sound a LOT better than a btl. The btls will handle a shit ton more power and have the potential to get louder than a lvl4. These are two subs that shouldn't even be compared.

what do you mean "learn efficiency"?
You'll have less current draw getting 2000w from a saz-2000d @ 1ohm than you will getting 2000w from a saz-1500d @ 0.5ohm.
-
was that with box rise calculated ?
Nobody should worry about impedance rise in a daily scenario cause it is not constant. Reactive impedance varies with frequency. If you must run the amp @ 0.5ohm your electrical will support the amp just fine regardless of impedance rise.
-
The decision is up to you but I can tell you that amp will run just fine @ 0.5ohm with that electrical.
-
I agree the Sundown Audio line of apparel could use an overall. Mainly just to get some more updated options. Here's a little sample peak at a little of what I'm working on.

settle down now guys, i personally dont have a problem with it and the sticker thing everyone is reffering to, i didnt have a problem with that either - but some of the manufacturer's do. I actually wouldnt mind getting with Derrick and having him be my official sticker maker and i will buy a bunch....and give him permission to sell them or give them away. I know he wasnt making anything out of the deal but if i get complaints i have to do something about it...i havent heard a word or seen a post from him since i said something, i sure hope i didnt upset him. Im stuck in the middle here. OF COURSE though if someone is using my logo and turning a decent profit, i will want in on it The small innocent stuff i dont mind..personaly anyway. I cant speak for manufacturer's.
I'm still here. Just don't get time to get on as much as I used to.
-
is it:
VOLTS X AMPS==WATTS produced?
or somthing like that to find out what my electric system can support...?
This is exactly how you calculate power. Remember that it's AC voltage & amperage output from the amplifier. Trying to calculate based off fuse rating or current draw is only a rough guess at best.
-
Oh yah... rated 400 RMS.
So what you're saying is it will handle 2k daily. :hairtrick:
-
did you ever find a fix for the firewall?
We have a fix for it but we're waiting on Rob's plasma cutter to get fixed. Then we'll jump back on this.
-
I'm down. My wife is staying home this year.
-
Looks like this was just a false alarm. She had the contractions but not enough dilation. After several hours at the hospital last night the contractions subsided. We're back home for now. Her due date is a week away so we're expecting the baby anytime now.
-
Wife & I are at the hospital now. This will be our 3rd girl.
-
Didn't mean to come as rude about it. I understand it can get confusing for guys who here some of us brag about how all the Sundown saz series amps can play at 0.5ohm daily even though they're not rated or warrantied for it. The sae series amps will not though.
-
No. Not unless it's for burps or possibly bassrace. (but I'm unsure of the bassrace part).
No. Not for either. Do not run it at 0.5ohm ever.
Sundown Audio Z v.2s are in & playing. Prelim #s up.
in Sundown Audio - GREAT Amps/Subs! GREAT Customer Service!

I've played it at 0.25 a little on music but not full tilt cause efficiency goes to shit and my current electrical can't keep up. I'm seriously considering swapping to four saz-2000s (one on each coil at 1ohm) just to keep current draw at a minimum. It sucks to be allowed unlimited amplifiers but only one extra battery in FeatherWeight.
