sundownz Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Just got these in... designed them based on many requests for a really good sealed box 8" woofer. Power rating is pending testing but mechanically I designed them around 300 watts or so (half the spiders of the SA-8 v.2) -- we'll do our thermal cycle to determine the official rating. As is typical with our products the rating giving will be a "worst case" rating and many people will have no problem running a bit extra. We built upon our newly tooled platform from the SA-8 v.2 so it shares many of the advantages of that platform from the get-go. These feature an under-hung coil with predicted linear x-max of ~14.5mm one-way by 70% BL method using an 8-layer copper 2" coil with 1/2" of winding width. The total depth for mounting is right at 4.75" measured, I will be measuring actual T/S on them later on today after some break-in time. Pricing is also pending final costs from our parts suppliers. On to the photos : * E8 v.2 then SD-2 8" then SA-8 v.2 * For this design I used drilling in the basket as opposed to the vent ring to save depth. * Solid pole like the other SD-2 woofers so there is no need to leave room to breathe behind them. * Same spider as the SA-8 v.2 but only one layer (top layer) Quote - Jacob Fuller - Owner, Sundown Audio - Sundown Audio on FACEBOOK - Please DO NOT PM ME -- use my email address -- [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sundownz Posted June 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 I am happy with the mechanical behavior and observed thermal behavior so far playing them in free-air -- specs measured before break-in indicate I MAY have to make some small tweaks to it with the mass and compliance but it's about 90% there.

Chris Hammer Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Thats awesome. When would they be available? I'm tuned in. I am looking to move to a 8" sub in a sealed enclosure and on less power than the SA-8. Looks perfect I like it.

sundownz Posted June 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 These are the very first prototypes so I do not have any ETA as more tweaking must be done.

Jordan Guess Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 I'll be ordering two of these whenever they are ready. Are they specifically made for sealed only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
