    187!!!!

    i have a sundown saz-1000D. Love that amp by the way, stays very cool even in the summer on a 1 ohm load. anyways ill probably have it tuned town a bit, and watching my gains so the subs will only be getting 300 or so watts each. i never like to push my equipment to the extremes so they last longer. My box is going to be about 4.3 cubes total including displacement from the drivers and the port, tuned to 34 hz. Should be a very nice set up. Can wait to get going on my box. front view of box back view

    box design for 2 12" 187's

    im making the port 3.5 inches wide and about 18 inches long. If i made the port 21 inches long there would be a very narrow opening into the port of about 1 or 2. This way there will still be 4 inches around the port opening.

    box design for 2 12" 187's

    I took some dimensions of my trunk and figured out some dimensions for a box that would be roughly 5.2 cubes when done, not including displacement from woofers, or port. I just have some questions about the actual port. Does the port volume also contribute to the overall volume of the box? Is it better to have a wider port or a taller port, assuming im using a slot port? The specs on the forum say i should have 20 to 30 inches of port, but if i make the port 2" by 15" tuned to 32hz it says i only need a total of 11", so how should i make the port? The dimensions that i have figured out for the box are 30 x 15 x 25 (width x height x depth) for a total of 5.2 cubes, excluding the port area so far. Another quick question do i need double the port length because im going to have 2 subs, or does it not matter. Thanks for any help. I want to get the box right the first time around

    question about the 187

    im thinking about getting two of these. Twelve inch dual 4 ohms. Just a couple of questions about them. I always read about how people are raving about them, but they have a very small linear excursion compared to other woofers. Im not exactly a guru at car audio, but if a woofer has a larger excursion isn't it better able to produce the lowest frequencies? Also i have and saz-1000D so would i be over powering them too much, or are these woofers really under rated because i have read that they can handle a lot more. Anyways im either getting the woofers stated above, or the id12D4's. Which would you think would be better in your honest opinions. I have good self control with gains and volume so i really dont think overpowering them would honestly be much of an issue now that i think about it. I have 2 visonik subs that are probably like 150 a piece and i havnt blown them yet. Im just looking for quality subs that will get pretty loud, and will not be a strain on my stock electrical system. Also if anyone has any suggestions on any other 12 inch subs that are around 300 to 400 watts below the $200 price point. Thanks in advance

    Need help matching an amp to new sub

    x5 for the sundown. I own the saz1000D and it definitely puts out the power, and have no problems with it getting hot even in the summer on a 1 ohm load, unlike some other cheep brands

    How did you guys find SSA???

    I was looking for a new amp and a friend on a coblat forum told me about sundown audio and i bought a new one, but was already opened and returned from the referb section on these forums, so i had to make an account to post that i wanted the amp...and here i am. Now im looking into incriminator audio subs to go with my saz1000D. probably the 187 series

    question about the 187

    I think im pretty much set on the 187's. I think they will do well in a ported enclosure. All i need now are plans for a box for these? i know they give the sizes it should be but its easier for me to see plans for a box

    question about the 187

    im pretty sure i saw your video on youtube. That shit was crazy. Do these woofers play the low notes well? That is my biggest concern. Like some of the songs from gorilla zoe, im just using him as an example because a lot of his songs have really low notes for sustained periods of time. Im not going to lie i am pretty impressed by the performace of the LI series from what ive seen on video, but i just dont want that much power so im hoping the 187 can still perform very well from IA.

    question about the 187

    i think the sensitivity of both the woofers are similar to each other (ia is 87.3 and id is 88.6) So not much of a difference.
