Sundown Audio

sundown x 15. whats considered high frequency?


Recommended Posts

I know that in the description of the sundown x series that they are low frequency drivers and do not expect to have them excel at high frequency bass notes. what is considered high frequency for this sub because everyone has a different definition of what a high frequency bass note is. my crossover is set to 85 hz give or take a few hz.

Thanks

Subs in general should be crossed no higher than 70 htz.

Thanks! and yeah the reason i have them set at around 85hz is because i dont have an external amp for my mids and my headunit only allows my mids to to crossed over at 100 hz or have everything pass though and at 70 hz it has a little too big of a gap and sounds weird haha. but my subs arent getting much right now so the "higher" notes arent doing any damage. ive been saving up for a while now for the x 15 or x 12 and an saz1500 or the SCV1500 when it comes out.

They actually play FLAT to even ~80 Hz or so -- but they do not exaggerate the top-end over stroke.

Sweet. That's what I was looking for!

i have mine set @ 80hz on the amp and 125 hz on the subwoofer menu on my head unit. i feel like the bass gets more detailed @125 hz

I could be wrong but running 2 filters at the same time is probably not the best idea...

Running 2 filters is just fine. Obviously he likes the sound. So its not hurting him. I have mine set on my deh-80prs and my amps. Dont know any monoblock amps with allpass setting. Have mine set at 63hz with a 12db crossover. Amp is set all the way to 250hz
