This is what I don't like about the black paint finish :

It's not noticeable on the SA line with relatively small back and top plates -- but when you get plates this thick it shows up.

The black paint also sometimes gets messed up a bit in shipping as it occasionally is not 100% cured and the plastic packing bag will mess up the finish by leaving crinkle marks on it.

Minor, yes, but it bugs me... especially on a larger and more expensive driver like this.

Scratchin, lloks like an Vinyl-LP.

My prototypes are here and they are fantastic... the 18" has an incredible amount of throw... I actually bottomed it out free air.

Fortunately I have modifications for production that provide 15mm more mechanical clearance rearward =)

I may tool new surrounds for them before production as well -- but that is pending more testing... as these surrounds are actually already pretty darn good.

Bottomed it out freeair? There goes the theory on all Sundown Subs being mechanically limited so that that is impossible. Bring on the revisions lol

Don't worry - I already addressed it for production :)

Was supposed to be a 15mm bump-out in the back plate that wasn't there on prototypes -- will be on production.

just saw the pics on facebook of the z3 family...they look awsome dude....now how about an 8 lol

Haha... well on the 10" the magnet boot may have to be removed if you use 8 awg speaker wire so the motor is a wee bit too large for 8s.

Need to play the 12 and 15 some before measuring specs but here are 18" and 10" specs after a couple minutes play time... should experience a good bit more break-in over a week or so of play time.
