November 19th 2007: The SD-1 v.2 is on pre-sale now for $175 shipped in the USA. More details available HERE on our official forum. The regular MSRP price has been settled on at $229 USD.
Sundown Audio products are now available in Trinidad. Check out our International section under "Dealers and Reps" for more information!
September 21st 2007: The SD-1 close-out sale is still going on for those interested. You can purchase them at the close-out price direct from Sundown Audio HERE on our forum or from your favorite Sundown Audio dealer!
Some initial photos of the SD-1 v.2 have been posted HERE on our forum. We were able to make the SD-1 v.2 even shallower than the original SD-1 while increasing linear x-max by nearly 50%! The SD-1 v.2 will have a mounting depth of only 4.5" in the 10" size with the ability to handle a full 400 watts RMS thermally thanks to it's 2.5" diameter voice coil and larger magnet structure. The SD-1 v.2 is purpose built for customers with extremely shallow truck enclosures that still demand the best sound quality possible for their application.
The SD-1 v.2 features a progressive roll spider, a narrow foam surround with a special treatment applied to the back-side, a 4-spoke cast basket, a Kapton voice coil former, and a full 6" diameter magnet structure! Even though it is a much beefier speaker it is still every bit as efficient as the original SD-1. If you only want to run 200 watts RMS then the v.2 will still provide excellent output on low power! It simply has the capability to handle up to 400 watts RMS if you feel the need for more output.
The SD-1 v.2 will be undergoing testing directly in a customer vehicle very soon. If the v.2 passes customer / dealer testing then it will begin production immediatly. The SD-1 v.2 10" will carry an MSRP price of $229 - 249 -- please contact your dealer of choice for best pricing when they are available.
August 16th 2007: The SD-1 woofer line is on close-out sale direct from Sundown Audio and from all of our online dealers. This model offers great performance for lower powered applications. The Stereo Integrity 12" BM subwoofer is also on close-out sale and you can purchase both the 12" BM and the SD-1 in both 10" and 12" sizes here direct from Sundown Audio -- CLOSE-OUT PAGE.
We have listened carefully to our customers and dealers and an improved SD-1 v.2 is being developed at this time. It will be a larger speaker and will step up to a mid-level price and performance point. It will retain the great sound quality of the original SD-1 but will have significantly more power handling and output potential. Mounting depth will increase slightly but will still be quite shallow allowing for use in most truck enclosures, around 5.25" for the 10" model.
We are also developing a high performance sub for our customers that would like a pair of woofers to mate with either the SAZ-1500D or SAE-1000D. Tentatively named the "X" series (name has not been finalized) these woofers feature a 3" voice coil and more excursion than even the new SD-1 v.2 subwoofers that are being developed. More information and photos of this woofer are POSTED on our official forum. These woofers should be hitting dealers around the same time as the SD-1 v.2 launch.
Sundown Audio also has a second FORUM hosted by Low-Hz now open.
Many new have been added and continue to be added almost weekly! Check the DEALERS page to find out if you have a dealer near you today!
Photos of the SAZ-3000D will be posted today as well, so check the 3000D product page today if you haven't seen this monster yet!
July 7th 2007: The SAZ-3000D is now available from any authorized Sundown Audio dealer. Order yours today!
June 20th 2007: The new Sundown Audio SD-1 Subwoofer product pages are up. One initial review can be seen on our forum HERE. These are low-cost, yet high quality, "Made in the USA" subwoofers. The first production run has no logo on the dust cap, although, future models will carry the Sundown Audio logo on the cap. These woofers carry the same great warranty as all Sundown Audio gear and are available now at any Sundown Audio dealer.
The SAZ-3000D is also hitting the streets starting with Team Sundown and a few select customers. More will become available to the general public in only a few more weeks, so stay tuned if you want to get the biggest and baddest Sundown amplifier to date!
May 20th 2007: The SAE-1000D pre-orders all shipped out last week and the SAE-1000D is now available at all authorized Sundown Audio dealers!
Thanks to some more great work by Brad Blankenagel the Sundown site has received a much needed re-design. If you notice any problems with the new design please contact me immediately as it is all new and we may have missed a bug in there somewhere. Brad has also continued his work on the "Rides" page which now contains several Sundown installations.
More local dealers have been added as well as new California Sales Rep, David Landeis, so if you are in California near the Cameron Park are David can help you out with your Sundown Audio questions.
May 3rd 2007: The SAE-1000D will be ready for sale within a week at current estimate, at which time it will be available at Sundown Audio authorized dealers in the USA and Canada! Production has started on the SAZ-3000D model as well, these are expected to debut towards the beginning of June. Supply will be limited on the first batch of SAZ-3000Ds but, don't worry, more will be following shortly afterwards to satisfy your demands for tremendous power output!
Sundown Audio is also proud to announce our new Distribution Partner in Israel, Loud N' Clear! Check the dealers page for more information regarding Loud N' Clear and, if you live in Israel, please contact them if you are interested in a Sundown Audio product. Sundown Audio looks forward to expanding our international dealer network with high quality Distribution Partners, such as Loud N' Clear, in various countries throughout the world.
Many customers are also asking, "Where are the 'E Series' woofers?" At this time it looks like they are going to have to be pushed back a few months in order to satisfy demand for the SAE-1000D and SAZ-3000D models which have exceeder all of our expectations for customer demand. We have not forgotten about them but our priority is to keep products we have already launched in stock and available even if that means slowing down development a bit. Make no mistake, they are on their way, albeit a bit late.
