Testing Sundown's new z15"s

[roarzorz 10+ year member]

So banginAltima & I picked up his new pair of Sundown Audio z15"s yesterday. I feel so priveleged cause I got to test them out in my Explorer 1st. My box is a very basic 6ft net volume. Powered by a single Sundown saz-1500d it burped a 149.5 and hit 148.1 on music playing some Kanye West. We're gonna do some more testing tomorrow and see what they can do at different power levels. No doubt this will easily burp over a 150db on the saz-2000d which will be the perfect amp for a pair of these subs. No doubt I'm underpowering them with the saz-1500d. After a 30 second full tilt run on music they were still cold to the touch and it was 80* here today. There isn't even the typical break-in smell with these subs. We can't wait to put more power on them. I believe we're gonna try burping them with a pair of saz-3000s tomorrow. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

They are available now. They just arrived on Thursday so I don't think the website has been updated yet.

T/S Specs for 15" D4 model (D2 will be very similar):

Revc= 6.150 Ohm series

Fs= 28.585 Hz

Sd= 83.000m M²

Vas= 105.275 L

Cms= 107.617 uM/N

Mms= 288.070 g

BL= 26.107 T·M

Qms= 5.000

Qes= 0.467

Qts= 0.427

BL²/Re= 110.825

2" tall windings on a 3" diameter coil - high linear x-max LC-SG motor design.

These are an "SQL" subwoofer - they will sound very good sealed or ported but also have excellent SPL potential.

Yep, Derrick was using two 15s - this is what I did with one 15:

I could not put the full power of the two 3000Ds to it, of course.

With two 1500Ds strapped at 2 ohms (1 ohm each) it still did 149.4 dB.

These are very good sounding subs too. An "SQL" type sub if you will!
