Sundown X-8 Information Thread (2013)


Recommended Posts

It's being driven with an NS-1 @ 2 ohms -- so it's going a bit beyond where it "should" be driven. So yes, at a certain point you'll get a bit of surround dimpling -- it won't hurt the sub, though. The surround is the same geometry as the Z v.3 18" surround.

You can buy parts form them to build a 8" monster out of a SA12 motor. At least according to someone I spoke to through email there.

The X-8 will like the same boxes as the SA-8 v.2 -- we did test up to 1 cube but you will have to watch mechanics a bit on the full 750 RMS (clamped anyway).

Can it handle a zx1500? lol
im pushing my 8v2 on zx750 (932rms birthed) in a tline and it gets warm to the touch but blows cool air for the past couple months. Definitely excited for this! can you say UPGRADE?! Haha

so what is the projected xmax going to be? Do you happen to know the weight and maybe the fs?

You know I haven't weighed it... usually weight is the last thing on my mind after making it work right :) It's heavy for sure, though.

I posted specs up somewhere else before -- but Fs is ~40 Hz or so. Should settle down into the high 30s after a while.

Linear x-max should be in the ~22mm or so range; with total movement capacity a good bit higher than that.
