why is everyone

Lol if you guys want to talk about overpriced items, kicker should be mentioned!!!! W7 is wayyyyyyy overpriced...SA is good for the pocket, I would say stronger too!...I think the enclosure has a lot to do with sq, maybe the sa could sound better in a appropriate box

 
It just about business. Comming into the market as an online company with direct sales allowed sundownkto have low sales price and good product. As the push to a more dealer based product started the peices had in to increase to allow dealers to have a margin of profit. This will pusb away some online sales, but considering forum based sales are a low margin of gross sales I dought there is or will be much thought into ever reverting back to an online/direct sales company.

here is the most legit response yet.

but anyways however that makes sense american bass is almost an identical company to Sundown products are very similar in quality and build...yet there are still a fraction of the price of sundown...

but for some reason i see sundown frickin EVERYWHERE while not a whole lot of american bass..why is this?..

i can see why you see kicker and rockford and what not all the time...EVERYONE sells them ive even heard walmart is starting too? lol

 
On sundown audio's nuts? Talk about way over priced just like JL but EVERYONE nut hugs Sundown but hates on JL they are both WAY overpriced no doubt quality but same quality can be had much cheaper and hell for that matter is rather over pay for certain JL products than I would Sundown..altho neither are worth a splurge..
Jus sayin
lol im not...... its good equipment, but im not paying for it lol

Sundown does a whole lot more R&D. American Bass makes good products (I have XFLs) but sundown has some higher quality stuff

Now granted I haven't sold American Bass products since the early 2000's and haven't kept up with their offerings but I'm curious as to which products are you comparing product to product with the Sundown that you claim is at a fraction of the price????

idc about it doing same wattage on all ohms i mean if your smart you buy your amp according to the set up which no matter how you cut it 1000 watts can be had at ALMOST ANY ohms FAR FAR FAR cheaper than the JL 1000 and the only one ive ever seen clamped didnt even do rated (at 14 volts) did like 970 something
i mean JL themselves dont even MAKE an amp that can power the 13w7 (that ive ever seen) and if they did it would probably be like 2000 bucks

bro ive had 4 12w7s and heard and seen too **** many of them slash 1000s and never once have i been impressed in any way shape or form. i mean not when i consider the price the amp is no more than a 300 dollar amp hiked up like a mofo
The slash series amps are really nice and are perfect to power W7. W7 typically fails @ 1200-1500W. If you can't get W7 to sound good you're a retard...

EDIT: Oh FFS... I can say p o r n? Is this the effing Disney Channel's website?
Something about certain words showing up in search engines actually and terms with advertisers. It's been discussed before... why you can't say s u c k either.

im tired of seeing a used 2000 watt amp for 400+ dollars thats all what people do doesnt bother me but all im saying is WTF is the logical reason behind it i see non.
That Zenon 2K board is very strong (capable of way more than 2K) and very reliable. They're worth every penny of 400$ IMO, I've owned a couple (not Sundown branded).

my friend did a 156 out of a trunk with a DC level 6 18, comparable to a sundown nightshade.
LV6 is a whole different animal. As loud as small gap Shocker, DD95, etc. but with 4" coil. I very impressive platform if they could get better softparts in it. Priced high and 270$ recones when you break them.

American Bass is NOTHING like Sundown. I have seen Sundown's operation (haven't seen AB's, but talked to people who have) and it's apples and oranges. Also AB builds absolutely nothing in house, and has spent nothing in R&D. Everything they sell is standard re-badged Korean mid-fi (like just about every other company). I can't vouch for their customer service either, but the boys at Sundown really are a class act to deal with. Never heard anything bad about AB either, but it's a whole different show.

At this point I can't see JL still justifying their price for 12 year old technology, but they've certainly done good marketing to get away with it. I wouldn't buy ANYTHING at MSRP ever so I don't even care.

7/10 troll thread for making me post.

w7> anything in sundowns line up ( In terms of overall output while retaining sq)

w7> anything in sundowns line up for spl (besides a nightshade)

and dont get me started on those slash amps..1 w7 with 1 1000/1 in a good box can produce some serious numbers

I buy all my stuff used or broken so I think everything is overpriced
