Recommended Posts

First burp... HU @ 0 position on sub control.

Matched best score ever with the Monster at any time (155.3) -- best I ever did at my shop on my meter was 155.1 dB, though.

Now... HU at +3 position !

MY BEST SCORE EVER -- one OR two subs :)

Man I am excited... 155.9 was my best before with two Nightshade 15s and four 3000s on an 18v system.

This time... ONE NS v.2 15" and two SAZ-4500Ds on 12 volts !

Yea I am sure he photoshopped those numbers hahaha.

I wanna see the thing in action though. Excursion! But that is a lot of power to it. I can't wait to see it put in other peoples cars and how they like it. I am ready for multiple reviews from users!

* Test fitting a few SP-1700s

* Passenger side panel back in

* Drivers side panel back in

* New batteries installed !

* Any battery installation requires the use of beer with a Sundown Audio drink cooler :)

---

I haven't had the side panels back in for a long time... so I am testing to see if I am louder with or without them.

I got my Sundown Koozie also. What made you switch out batteries? Were you louder with panels on or off?

I don't know if I'm louder with or without the panels... some anecdotal evidence suggests that I am louder WITH them but I've never done an A-B test.

Either moving the amps to the sides OR putting the side panels back in is not working (I was trying a suggestion to move the amps here instead of in front of the box)... so next step is to put my old amp rack back in:

If the old amp rack doesn't bring it back to at least the original score I will take the plastic panels back out.

I hit 155.7 right as one amp went into protect with the panels OUT and the amps still on the sides. Impedance seems to have changed with the amp location... going to try sliding the box around.

Seems I am louder with the panels out after all.
