15" Nightshade and saz3000

the local dealer said the new nightshades come fully loaded so that they can take more power. How will a 15" nightshade handle a 3000d?

We have found that customers using D2 model Nightshades on a 3000D @ 1 ohm are doing quite well with them daily with a proper gain adjustment and proper enclosure size (about 3 cubes). All of the new ones DO come standard with the longer coils, enhanced cooling, and improved adhesives that we have been working on.

So with a good front battery, a rear batt and good ground as long as i set the gains right I would be fine? THis set up void the warranty on the nightshade?

Nice combo if sticking with Sundown suggestions. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

They are rated 1500 watts RMS so a blown coil is no longer covered by warranty at double that.

You are very unlikely to run into a problem with the proper enclosure size and gain setting, though.

Re-Cones are not expensive if something does happen, 100 bucks.

Indeed - he has done VERY well with his Nightshades.

If you have an HO alternator one in the back should do nicely.

If you are the type of guy that listens wide open all the time I'd upgrade that - if not you are okay.
