matt402 Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Like I told you send Jacob an email at Sundown. He will give you a price shipped on one. He was just doing a special not too long ago on the blem motors for around $350 each. I hate to say it cause the DC guys will get pissy about it, but the Nightshade will bitchslap the DC Level 4 and 4XL. Sorry but it's true It's up to you on what you want to do but I'd definately wait until you talk to Jacob before you go making any decisions on a sub. I have run both company's subs and which one do you think I know is better? I've still yet to see anyone that has a 4XL break over a 152 off under 5K watts. I wish I had a Crx too so I could show you over a 154 out of mine just by switching cars, but since I'm rocking a Focus ZX3 the 152.6 will have to do for now. Seriously think about it before you buy either sub! jp nightshade. GET A DC LEVEL 4!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chase216 Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 whatever you do just get as big as you can for as much power you can cause car audio is addictive 1st its 12's then upgrade to 15's then you'll try a 18 then more 18's so fuck it save the time and money get 18's and a wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audiofanaticz Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 lvl 4>nightshade (lvl 4 cheaper) Cheaper is not always better when sacrificing performance. If price is the case, why not goto wal-mart and get some sony, pioneer, or the $23 vr3 subs? LOL Sundown has some very doable pricing, and all it costs is your signature.

Boon Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 DD 3515? AQ HDC3 15? Both good options, virtually the same subs actually, and will slam on that power. Nowhere near enough power for an MT IMO. Quote 10.x volts fo' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightshade Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) Sundown ftmfw!!Sorry, just had to back up Zach :yahoo: Thanks Brian, I'd glad you gots muh back. how a bout a lvl 5 vs a nightshade? thatll help me with one of my debates. That's a good question. I've never seen anyone do a comparrison on those two subs. It would be interesting to see it done. It wouldn't be fair for either sub to be thrown in the same enclosure though, each would have to be optimum enclosure for the subs, same power, and the same car. I'm guessing it would be close, but Sundown does have 2 subs higher up the line than the Nightshade. The first one is the Monster that is still in the testing phase and the other is the Neo mag sub that is still in the r&d phase. Each of them are absolutely great for spl. Jake has shown quite a few results of the Monster, but the Neo sub hasn't even been finished yet. Send me a level 5 and I promise that I'll do an unbiased test for the sake of comparrison on which is a better spl woofer. I also agree with Boon about the AQ HDC3 15. They are great for the money and are built similar to the DD subs. I do have a buddy that swapped out a HDC3 for a Nightshade and gained .4 db with the Shade. It was the same box though so who knows which was actually louder.
