Sundown Audio

Recommended Posts

So I finally got up enough money for 2 sets of SD sa 6.5's for my 100.4d .

So should I just wire them up using the supplied crossovers using all four channels

Or

Use the crossover in the amp and use channels 1-2 for the 4 tweets

And channels 3-4 for the 4 mid ranges?

Would there be a noticeable gains by dropping down to 2 ohms and getting 160 per channel and being able to control the tweets level and the mids level separately ??

Ill have to check and see what the mids and tweets actucally ohm out to be sure ..

Bump

I measured the mid @ 3.1ohms

And the tweet @ 3.2 ohms

So the amp will see 1.5 ohm per channel is that right an would that be too low ?

I would give the cross over a try before you go active. See how it sounds if you don't like it you can switch to active later

I'd imagine that resistance will be fine, sundown amps are known for people who know what they're doing being able to run super low resistances. I don't think that running a 25% lower resistance will be too low. But, I agree that you should try the passive crossovers first at least until you can get your hands on an CC1 and DD1 to make sure your crossover is right and they're not getting an clipped signal.

BTW I'm going to be doing something very similar,except I'm doing it active off my SAX125.4, so let me know how it sounds I'm very interested in the results. :)
