Vito Basser Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Just helping someone decide on a small setup with an SA8. What is the max unclipped amount of power you have had these running at daily? Either V1 or V2 We have various amplifiers available for this setup, just looking for the boundary as I know Sundown rate their subs conservatively. Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fritosaregood Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 Ive got an NS-1 to 2 of them. this box they are in is about .6 per woofer with a 4" aero, I just rebuilt a box to 1cube per woofer with 40sq" of port and it only takes that power around tuning, but under tuning i have to turn the HU down a couple clicks.

Have you thought about clamping the power you are feeding yet with that ns-1? I saw that you said you think the clamp is broke, didnt know if you got a new one yet.

sundownz Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 The v.2 subs will handle a pretty massive amount of power when configured properly as they essentially have no mechanical limit within reason (we have busted them mechanically on 5kw burps). The voice coil cooling also puts them on par with many well designed 2.5" coil drivers thermally.
