SA-12 question


Recommended Posts

First is this a good deal? Not familiar with SA products but i hear theyre good

http://www.ebay.com/itm/SA-12D2-SUNDOWN-AUDIO-12-DVC-2-OHM-SA-SUBWOOFER-SUB-/130420415089?pt=Car_Subwoofers_Enclosures&hash=item1e5da99a71#ht_4905wt_1037

What is the RMS? Cause theyre website doesnt say and these people say 600 but im not sure its correct.

How would it sound in a 2.5cf box (after displacements) tuned to 34hz?

and also how would it compare to an FI SSD 12? Im looking for SQ with some spl. Thanks

That is a good deal, that's a certified sundown dealer so that's the accurate price for a new SA-12. The SA series (except the SA-8) are all rated at 600w rms but a very underrated and will take 1000w better than most 1000w subs. The SA can sound really good and get loud as well. The size of the box will likely depend on the power you will he giving the sub, and the 34hz tune will sound good.

so far...

Yes they are rated 600 watts, how much power do you plan on running?

1000 watts, you think it would sound better/louder than an FI SSD?

There is really no way to know, but I would personally go with the SA just because I love them and the customer service

I have no experience with the ssd so I couldn't say, but a SA 12 imo is the best you can get for under 200 brand new. It should get plenty loud on 1000 watts, but I would suggest running a slightly smaller box around 2 cubic feet.

Alright thanks for the input, you think it'd still sound good at 33/34hz? cause ive read they like lower tuning around 27 or 28
