Recommended Posts

curious to hear how it sounds. I've built my second box for my sa-8s and they're giving me some trouble.

09 Challenger R/T (Audio system under construction):

  • Pioneer AVH-X4500BT (PAC RP4CH11 harness)
  • (2) Sundown Audio SA-8v2 (inverted)
  • CT Sounds AT1400.1D
  • XS Power D3400
  • 40 sq ft. Audiotechnix deadener
  • 1/0 Audiotechnix wiring
  • stock Boston Acoustic 7 speaker amplified system (for now)
  • Sealed trunk enclosure

I want the ct sounds 1400.1 so if I can get that one then cool. But if not, I'm gonna get the SAZ 1200D.

i own a pair of sa8 v2 too and i wired them to 1ohm to an audio technix 800.1 (same as ct 900.1) and they were hitting nice but they needed more so then i tried an audio technix 1200.1(same as 1400.1) and damn they dont ask for more it is just perfect

I talked to my dealer yesterday and he said the amps were in Houston waiting to be shipped to the warehouse. What that means in terms of when I will get it, I have no idea. I was hoping this week but it doesn't really look like it.

It's not that big of a deal so I'm not gonna start a new thread about it but when I try to use Winisd, I can't get an sa 8v2 to graph over 116db. I'm entering parameters I found online, which aren't easy to find I might add. I'm probably doing something wrong, but has anyone graphed one on there and gotten higher?

I finally got the amp. Got everything wired up. And I'm like you sickspd, I'm not impressed. I know it's something I'm doing wrong. But they are not loud at all. Pretty disappointed so far. The only way I can get the sound I was hoping for its by turning the gain all the way up and start turning the bass boost on, which I know I'm not supposed to use, so it's not on. Even with the gain all the way up, the clip light on the gain knob never comes on while playing decaf. It does flicker when playing regular music though. Anybody have any ideas? I am hoping to get it set with a dd1 tomorrow.

Here's some pics anyway. I'll get a video one it's working right.
