Hellbilly429 Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I believe my SA-12 was shipped with a weight of 30lbs, and let me tell you these things have seriously heavy magnets. Considering the moving parts on a 15" weighs about 0.747036lbs and the weight of the 15" is 33 lbs, not sure of the weight of the frame but if it weighed even 5lbs the weight of the magnet would be around 27lbs, pretty beefy magnet for a 600 watt rms sub.

Hellbilly429 Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 They don't list a peak handling because different companies use different methods to determine rms and peak power handling, these subs are rated at what they can handle free-air running all day long without a break, whereas something else may be rated at peak what it goes up in flames at and rms at what half of that flame rating is. Sundown builds quality subs that can take way more power than they are rated at, but you also have to be smart about what you are doing. If you are questioning whether you want to buy one then do yourself a favor and buy one, fall in love and never turn back. And if by a small chance you don't like it (I haven't heard from anyone that doesn't) then you can turn around and re-sell the sub quick and without much of a loss as these things sell like candy, and they can be re-coned for $40.
