Thanks! I wish it moved more air, but that's probably about all 1 12 can do in a regular ported box haha. I'm getting really close to having my 2 X12's build done.
@@GuitarHeroGage I really wanted to try a Nightshade because I'm not ready to throw a 92lb Zv5 in my tin foil Honda lol. But I can't afford that right now. How do you like the X12? I've read that it doesn't do well with mids and highs? Also I'm stuck on a box. Do you think 30hz is too low?
@@jordan3204 Mine does kind of fall off after like 50hz, but it handles lows really well. Before I sealed it into the cabin, 45Hz+ didn't exist, but I can hear up to 80hz now, it just doesnt hurt lol. 30Hz is a good tune if you like lows, you can play down to like 23Hz no problem with that tune. Sundowns are for the lows, i really wanted my new box tuned at 28hz but with the space i had i could only get 30hz :/
It's funny I have a 2007 Corolla where the execs car amplifier you have already and I have the big-3 done as well. I build a custom ported 4 cubic feet box for the single 15-inch subwoofer I'm about to order the exact subwoofer you have .lol just happened to stumble across your video today. Can you give me an update is everything still performing well?the only thing I need is an upgraded alternator and a bigger battery Bank I'm still running off the stock battery LOL so drops my current pretty harshly
I have 2 X12's now, the old and new still with stock soft parts, holding up strong! I'm waiting to do an update video in the spring or so, cause it's cold. Ive changed like 3 amps since i got the 2 X12's. I'll post an update video, keep a lookout.
I have two x12s in my Chevy avalanche I don’t have big 3 upgrade yet but they hit crazy hard I’m running one db drive A7 2500 amp. When I do big 3 upgrade I’m gonna get a more powerful amp to really feed these subs I’m sure I’ll break something lol
@@GuitarHeroGage ... oh ok. Does it keep it cool. Like special in summer I need something to keep my amp cool. I have no ac in my truck. And those big fans for car audio are loud as hell
@@superior3384 It kept it from overheating a few times, you usually want the fan to blow across the top of it through where the fins are for the best airflow.
Sup bro enjoyed your video... I just join the sundown Gang lol. And goin 1x12 two 8 inch mids and two 1inch heavy ass tweeter both by Rockford Fosgate in front doors so when I get the X12 in I’ll at least hear the words of my music instead of being drowned by bass 😂. My question is do u know where I can get a budget friendly battery and alternator? I mean I wish I could by a mechman but I’m hoping something cheaper but put out 300 Amps?
You can hit up Brand X Electrical and see what they have. Honestly i wouldnt cheap out on an alternator, because your car actually needs it lol. Battery wise, not sure honestly, all batteries are kind of expensive. Lithium is where it's at right now. You can get a 15 ah limitless lithium LiFePo battery thats equal to 2-3 car batteries for $499. Otherwise you could just upgrade your front battery to a 100AH XS Power battery.
with my RP 2k, it was pretty rare I went under 12.6 and that was with clipping, with my taramps MD8k i haven't went under 12.8 running it 2590w. I have a 100A stock alt, just got my 250a from CES, and my lithium though, going big lol.
I didn't build it, I got it from a guy in Nicholasville KY, but he sells them online under Slambox USA i'm pretty sure. They kinda beefed up pre-fabs, I liked the box though, and it did extremely well. But now that I got 2 X12's i'm going to try and sell it. But there's some holes I need to patch up first.
@@kylereigel3709 Yes it held up alright on a Skar RP2k, i had a 65AH front battery and a 100A stock alt. The songs I just grab from everywhere, DJBRM, DJ Russticals on Facebook is a good place to get some, most of them have been taken down at this point though.
with my RP 2k, it was pretty rare I went under 12.6 and that was with clipping, with my taramps MD8k i haven't went under 12.8 running it 2590w, those XS d3400's are legit, but im gonna upgrade to lithium.
You are the one who got me on sundown down x12
Hell yea man, glad i could inspire someone!
Stopping by, Nice build update of your Corolla build man. I liked the bag and window flex to!
Appreciate it man! Thanks for checking it out!
Damn the fact Jacob commented was surprising to see😵. Good shit tho man sounds very good
Good video man. I liked the show and tell. Nice demo's.. I'm gonna do an X12 with a wolfram AW3K
Now when I first watched this video I said I will have 2 sundown x12’s 2 and now I do they for the inspiration
Damn you're pulling hair tricks with one X12? Great setup man!

That one dislike is jealous of your setup man. Sick af
Lol thanks man, maybe he clicked the wrong one on accident.
You are going to have to put some more power on that subwoofer it's jogging 🏃♀️
I have a video with 2 of them on 12k :) It was realistically probably 6-7k RMS, but still way over powered.

Is the box for sale when you get this second one I'll buy the box I have one X 12 that I need a box for
I already sold it, I got it from "slam box USA" if they are still around. It used to be some guy in Nicholasville, KY that made them.
@@GuitarHeroGage Ok, thanks bro👍
Is hair trick only possible with and port and sub facing the front?
Technically no, but its way easier with both facing forward, but facing towards the trunk can be louder db wise in some cars.
Question what exactly is clipping?

You need to get another one of those 2500's and a bigger alt, would be straight killing it.
I have to know where you got your amp fan
It's just an old PC fan, i think it was a 120 or 140mm fan, just rip the connector off and hook up + and - to a remote power source.

where can i download dj brm?
Lookup DJBRM on facebook, they have a link to a mega on there.
Automatic like for the bones track
I just order two of these Sundown X-12s
Hell yea man, I have 2 now and its windy as all hell, check out some of my newest videos
@@GuitarHeroGagedid you have to upgrade your alternator?
@@wholehearted89 Yep, 250A CES.
Yo can u sell me your old x12 box for the 1 12
Already sold it, sorry man
Where did u get it from I really want one my box it way to small
@@BrianJimenez-ft2tv It was from "slamboxUSA" not sure if they are still around.
👍
Do sound clean
How well does your Volts stay? I screwed up my last alt because I was running a 1500 amp with no extra battery. I'm planning on buying a skar rp2k
with my RP 2k, it was pretty rare I went under 12.6 and that was with clipping, with my taramps MD8k i haven't went under 12.8 running it 2590w. I have a 100A stock alt, just got my 250a from CES, and my lithium though, going big lol.
@@GuitarHeroGage what do you recommend if I'm running a skar 2k, should I get an alt or should i get a few batteries
@@andrewburton6149 Alt first always, but 1 extra battery should be enough, but if just 1 killed your alt, id definitely get a high outupt alt.
where did you get the box? or did you build it?
I didn't build it, I got it from a guy in Nicholasville KY, but he sells them online under Slambox USA i'm pretty sure. They kinda beefed up pre-fabs, I liked the box though, and it did extremely well. But now that I got 2 X12's i'm going to try and sell it. But there's some holes I need to patch up first.
Hey we talked before on your dual x12 video I got the same sub hooked up now and had a few questions do you have Instagram or something ?
I do not, but you can ask you questions here, i can try to get all of them.
GuitarHeroGage Thanks man ! I was wondering were you get the music you play at? And how your 1 X12 held up with the stock alt ?
@@kylereigel3709 Yes it held up alright on a Skar RP2k, i had a 65AH front battery and a 100A stock alt.
The songs I just grab from everywhere, DJBRM, DJ Russticals on Facebook is a good place to get some, most of them have been taken down at this point though.
Stock alt?
It was yes.
Nice! How is your voltage?
with my RP 2k, it was pretty rare I went under 12.6 and that was with clipping, with my taramps MD8k i haven't went under 12.8 running it 2590w, those XS d3400's are legit, but im gonna upgrade to lithium.
