Zv5 10 or xv2 10?

[macsdad 10+ year member]

x10v2, and did you check this out?Looks suprisingly well for just .8 cu ft. of enclosure, huge port tho.

The sub that I am using is in .55cuft sealed, so I am not surprised at all, the sundown can thrive in somewhat small enclosures. I hope that it works out for you, until you get the dreaded upgrade bug anyway. And we all have been bitten by it, me at least 30 times these past 14 years.

Hey guys,

The site does lag at this time (it is something I want to rectify going forward) but I do post ALOT of stuff on Facebook in albums for such cases:

https://www.facebook.com/pg/sundownusa/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1054551991266938

* Complete Z v.5 T/S specs & measurement sheets

https://www.facebook.com/pg/sundownusa/photos/?tab=album&album_id=762768877111919

* Complete X v.2 T/S specs & measurement sheets (just missing the X-18 v.2 with new frame... TS spec wise very little difference from 6-spoke)

Now... for the NS v.3 there was so many options there is really no definitive list made for them.

What you can do is simply model up a Z v.5 and they work in the same boxes =)

The Z v.5 will have the same response as the X v.2 but just be able to handle more output?

And thank you for taking effort man. Really kind of you //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.

There's a Dutch site called: http://www.sundownaudio.nl

Can't imagine this is legit, could you check this out?

The X v.2 and Z v.5 will have a very similar response, yes (not quite identical but very similar).

And yes, the Z v.5 has quite a bit more power handling / output... also even less distortion.

The .NL site does belong to a distributor we have over there -- looks like we shipped hime some stuff just last month =)

So it is safe to buy?

We have been selling to Emperor Audio since 2007 (they run sundownaudio.nl) -- they aren't a massive dealer but I've never heard any complaints.

Okay cool, by the way. I saw the zv5 is like 200-300€ more. Is that really worth the upgrade, in my wattage class?

1500-watts ?

If so the X v.2 is more than enough, IMHO.

You would be right on the edge, then.

The Z v.5 will start to perform noticeably better in that range.

Impeccable customer service, just like Nick at S I, very hard to beat. Nothing like getting the info you need straight from the source.

Oh god, buying an €800 subwoofer. My woman is gonna kill me HAHA.

Edit: totally worth it. I agree with you macsdad, impecable customer service.

One last question @sundownz, what size cable fits in to zv5 woofer terminals?

The terminal is rated as a "4 AWG" size -- but using stranded / large car audio cable an 8 gauge wire is about max.

I just noticed something weird. The D1 Z v.5 has a lower Fs than the D2.

Is that something I should pay attention to?

My B2 Hn10 takes 4 gauge all day long haha. I usually use 16mm2 and 4 gauge is 20mm2. So that should fit.

 

[Aygodriver1212]

I thought I asked somewhere, but I noticed the d1 has lower Fs, is this something to take in to account? @sundownz
