AAA Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 (edited) Hey guys i’m new in the car audio stuff and i got some questions about the Sundown Audio ZV4 now when you look at the pre-order of the Sundown Audio ZV4 it says 1750W RMS my question is how much power does the Sundown Audio ZV4 really handles like whats the max power of RMS can it handles so if you go above it your in the danger zone and might blow the sub and is the 18” handles more than the 15”, 12”, and 10” or they all handles the same amount of power.

DylanBunch Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 (edited) Im sure the size doesn't affect the power handling. But I saw a testing video of 1 12 off a single sundown saz-3500. Being sundown it puts out a little more than 3500 so I'd say 1750 is very conservative. Now with that beimg said, dont put a 3500 on one cause these guys actually know what theyre doing lol no offense Edited May 1, 2013 by DylanBunch Quote 2006 Ford Explorer 2 Team AA/Sundown 15s 6th order Ct Sounds 7k 4 PRV Mr500 8s Rockford p1000-2 Team Subsonic Lows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raptorman Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 All the sizes have the same power handling. As for power handling, we don't know yet. I would venture to say maybe 3k, but we will see once more people get their hands on them.

TRTC360 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 if you have to ask, just follow the rated power, doesn't take a shit ton of power to get them moving, they're rated at 1750 for a reason.

SnowDrifter Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I think an NS-1 would be a bit much for it.It's a 3" flatwound coil. Even with good cooling they start to max out around 3500-4k for good daily use 1 Quote ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AAA Posted May 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 and i’m buying the NS-1 for a two 18” i think thats fair for both subs, what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Fultz Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 and i’m buying the NS-1 for a two 18” i think thats fair for both subs, what do you think? Depending on what coil configuration you ordered and what your final ohm load is, should be fine. Especially when you take into account box rise, voltage drop ect. you probably won't be seeing "true" 6500 watts anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
