Nightshade Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 what is his voltage like, he should be seeing more than 10k out of that amp Don't take this as bashing but the SD amps are junk. He went through 7 8K's this year with nothing but problems and the 12K that he had had to be fixed 3 times. Once it blew just turning the fucking thing on. You could ask any of the NSPL competitors who were at finals we spent all of Saturday night at finals rebuilding his SD 12K. The amp just plain sucked and never did what it was supposed to. You interested in buying any Soundigital equiptment cause he's selling it all once he gets it back from Murilo from being fixed and running all Sundown equiptment.

Nightshade Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Allright here is the only pic I could find of it online. I can probably get you a few more if he's willing to show the goods but with the window glare it's hard to tell what't in the truck.

Yep thats not bashing :01nocomment8so: but I won't get any more into that in someone elses thread. This sounds more like user issues with SD amps, how many other competitors have you heard of having issues of this nature with them.. It's a little ridiculous blowing 7 different amps and having all of them be manufacturer issues. What kind of electrical was he running on them?? 1998 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer... New setup, old ride... QX56 is staying stock til I get loud... It's only getting walled off if I don't meet my goal @ SBN. Pioneer AVIC-N2 (12) 12" RE SXs old model....

It's a little ridiculous blowing 7 different amps and having all of them be manufacturer issues. What kind of electrical was he running on them?? I know of a few other Db Drag competitors that have had issues with them, one was a rep for SD and then stepped down after having problems. Electrical consists of 4 NSB 90's, an Optima Red Top under the hood, and a 250 amp Excessive Amperage alt. The alt is very questionable on output, but those amps should perform well enough off of battery power. They are run in many street cars in Db Drag where the voltage drops down into the low 9's on a burp with few problems. It was to the point that he was getting used amps back after he sent his amps in instead of brand new ones like he was supposed to do. I'm not here to bash at all but I could go on for a while about the bs that happened all year. 2013 VW Jetta GLI 2.0 Turbo 1 Sundown Audio SCV2000 1 Sundown Audio X15 V2 1 XS Power D3100 Audio Control LC6i Stock Deck 146.4 sealed on the dash at 37hz 2001 Focus ZX3: RETIRED Team Sundown Audio, Team XS Power, 2 time NSPL Car 3601-Up Champion, 2 time NSPL Car Hardcore ChampionHighest NSPL Scores to date:154.3db on the dash sealed at 46hz, 156.2db in the kick at 46hz155.2db unofficial on dash at 43hz

Marlo Stanfield Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 4 gauge is very overkill...but the question isnt why...its why not True, as long as ur not running a ton of subs like u said "why not"... With 24 12s on there way to my stable of subs, I'll be running 8ga to all the subs and even that got a lil pricey. 1998 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer... New setup, old ride...
