I honestly don't think it'll film well, mine gives of such a emp pulse I cant do it with customers in my building. It literally can stop a persons pacemaker at a large distance.
This is exactly why I would buy a Sundown subwoofer before any other. A very nice USA business with multiple product variations, nearly every detail done in house and no BS. Love the magnetizer. I used to magnetize "stock" RC car motors back in the day. It is also cool that you know each person's workbench by heart.
Hey Derrick can we get woofer test on NSV4-18 please? Would like to see how much it can handle. I ordered one. Was thinking of hooking up 12K watts to it :). Ty sir!
Alright my X V.2 18 with the 6 spoke frame is already under way can't wait to get it to go with my other 2 . Thanks Derrick for the constant content im a big fan an i love my Sundown equipment . 1 day everything in my truck will be Sundown
I'd guess on the motors but I'd be wrong on em. I havent been blessed enough to own any Sundown subs as of yet... Too much money out on cancer surgery and radiation treatment going on right now. Keep making great American products and making America great one banging set up at a time 👍
U GUYS SHOULD SALE A FEW OF THOSE DUST CAP WEIGHTS THOSE ARE SO COOL BECAUSE PEOPLE THAT RECONE SUBWOOFERS WOULD AND BUILD SUBWOOFERS JUST AN SAYING I'D BUY A COUPLE (✌🏼💪🏼🔈✌🏼💪🏼🔉✌🏼💪🏼🔊)
I have a question for you guys. Do you have any subs with a low FS, sub 25hz that would work well in a home audio environment? Right now I have a Dayton Ultimax 15, and while it does well on low bass, it is getting hot on 500 watts with bass music and hitting bottom on Spiderman-Into the Spiderverse. I want something I never have to worry about again with up to 2000 watts, maybe transitioning into a blow through in my sierra crew cab possibly into the future.
Good old SUNDUNE I MEAN SUNDOWN.... About a yr ago commented a few times SUNDOWN is overpriced and overrated... I take that back Derrick its videos like this that not many companies will bring you in and not hide a thing! In the past yr or so I have learned alot from you and I APPRECIATE the TRANSPARENCY and KNOWLEDGE!! I am still trying to justify to myself spending over 500 a subwoofer but them ZV5 are calling my name... What is the difference between them and the X subs? motor difference oz to what oz? Ty Derrick for all you do in the Car Audio Community MUCH RESPECT AND GOOD KARMA TO YOU AND ALL @SUNDOWNU.S.A.
I have the zv5 clone, a stereo integrity hst12mkll, also made by hand in NC, the motor for them checks in at about 70 pounds, unsure about the x. The wrms for the x is 1500, and for the zv5 is 2000wrms.
15:26 Oh wow, carbon fibre. I have just build a Bandpass with a 27 years old 10" Monacor driver - It's got a carbon fiibre cone with a neat dark red epoxy finish.
I've been incredibly impressed with my sa-12 I've had for a few years now I can only imagine what my vehicle would sound like with a higher level sundown sub than the one I have, looks like it might be time for a upgrade lol
Me to bro I only get americanbass but man I've always wanted to try like a x v2 15 or zv4 but sometimes I feel that a skar zvx v2 15 wouldn't be to bad either but yes one day I'll get me a good ol sundown sub
@Th3Aggr3ssiv3 Cons3rvativ3 js so you no but I've always truly wanted some americanbass hd 18s or some vfl 18s the carbon fiber cones they use for the face looks so nice and makes bass sound so much cleaner imo
Quinton Litton Yeah sundown Z series are real deal. I don’t know why people hate on Skar they put out some decent equipment as well. All great IMO if I don’t run RS platinums next season for the trunk car I will grab a set of U’s if I don’t run the SA’s
Th3Aggr3ssiv3 Cons3rvativ3 I have too many favorite brands I have quite a few sets of drivers waiting to go into something or waiting for soft parts. I’m a addict 🔊🔊😂😎😊
My shop just sent in my ZV-5 15, I also ordered another ZV-5 15 upgrading my system to 2 ZV-5 15s I can't wait. I couldn't go with out bass so I bought a U series to run till I get my rebuilt 15 and my new one in. I'm in Raleigh/Durham NC
Sorry man. I apologize for not commenting on your other videos but I enjoyed watching this video if how sundown subs are built. That was awesome to see that.
I got my experience/everything shirt today. Ain't to funded as of now, but figured it'd help some something. Love the vids. Thanks for putting out the merch man.
Just out of curiosity, why are dust caps still a thing? As opposed to some designs that are all solid cone? is that a design for ease of logo placement or a performance thing?
Well the solid ones still have a dust cap it just covers the whole cone because otherwise you couldn't recone the sub, how could you shim it properly without access to the coil via the dust cap?
Well get a good job work a bunch of hrs and that's all to it... You want something bad enough you will get it!! Sucks shit don't MYSTERIOUSLY APPEAR WHEN WE WANT IT gotta earn that shit....
The carbon fiber looks bad ass! One of these cones will take a beating and the VC will die first. I know carbon fiber is very strong and its Young's Modulus is incredible. Is Finite Element Analysis showing an improvement using carbon fiber over reinforced pulp based cones? Won't the moving mass be too low, or is the CF for SPL subs only since it will yield a higher efficiency? OR is the CF so that you can have fat, multi-layer voice coils and still have a reasonable moving mass?Pulp is no joke. Look at CNC's (nano cellulose), but that is electrically conductive. Oops. I don't think testing will be necessary for the cf cones as long as it is uniform, void free, has the appearance you are looking for, and the proper flatness (top bottom) and dimensions it will be a big 'GO'.
I'd have to sell my entire system just to buy one of those woofers. Sundown's got some deep shit, but I may end up settling for a used JL. Probably a W3. My audiobahns are about to go for one last ride when I wire them down to 1 ohm- My demo video was disappointing and I need WAY more power. I can still see when I drive, so that's a problem for me.
Derek i heard where you said Dave works on other brands of subs. I'm needing a recone for a mtx 9500-12 single 4ohm coil. Would i have to send you the sub or would you be able to send me a drop in replacement???
is there ever a point where motor is too big for the rest?? I've seen x12 v2 motors throw that cone around like crazy.. I could only imagine a zv5 or a nsv4 12...
I'm in the same boat my friend. I've sent email after email but never seem to get a reply. I finally just bought new subs from another manufacturer while my poor NS v3-18 sits collecting dust😪
I've still gat a magnet zapper and they are no joke. I've thought about selling mine but they aren't for the faint hearted. Seriously they can be violent if someone doesn't know what they are doing. Also when he says it goes clunk clunk, he's not joking. You can damn near feel the electricity as it zaps them.
My 2 SA-15's on a SCV-2000D @ 1 ohm destroyed my 2010 Yukon (broke my dash, killed my passenger side power mirror, rear view mirror shall also RIP, rear tail light bulbs lasted maybe 2 weeks every time I replaced them, and the rear door license plate light system may RIP too) now they are about to go in my 95 Nissan Hardbody King Cab. I can not fathom what the X series or better would do to my vehicles.....
Lets see that magnetizer in action. Would make a good quickie video for one day.
I honestly don't think it'll film well, mine gives of such a emp pulse I cant do it with customers in my building. It literally can stop a persons pacemaker at a large distance.
I got faith in filming thru an offical Sundown Audio faraday cage. 😆
Go see EXO....... Sundown took care of the subs he has.......

Lmfao and rotf!!
Thank you bro... Everytime you do a tour of the shop... It's like my Disneyland!!! KEEP ON KEEPING ON BROTHER!!!

Dusk to Dawn, Sun up to SUNDOWN!!
I love how transparent you guys are with how you do things. It only makes me trust your products more!
What if a customer asked for a Nsv3 motor? Could you provide it? That was about the only one I didn’t see.
The more I watch the more I'm impressed with the people and product
Sundown life, sundown is love
Hey Derrick can we get woofer test on NSV4-18 please? Would like to see how much it can handle. I ordered one. Was thinking of hooking up 12K watts to it :). Ty sir!
I really liked this video, nice to have a change and mix it up. Two thumbs up and a share! Thanks D!
Would you guys consider selling those dust cap weights? I'd buy one
just use a full beer can bro, will get the job done
@@TheGamingChad. ha ha ha bro
Alright my X V.2 18 with the 6 spoke frame is already under way can't wait to get it to go with my other 2 . Thanks Derrick for the constant content im a big fan an i love my Sundown equipment . 1 day everything in my truck will be Sundown
Hey D. Maybe yoi could show the magnification process. Thanks sir.
I'd guess on the motors but I'd be wrong on em. I havent been blessed enough to own any Sundown subs as of yet... Too much money out on cancer surgery and radiation treatment going on right now. Keep making great American products and making America great one banging set up at a time 👍
I'm interested in the home audio version, what ohm coils and size are they?
13:34 that little 8 inch subwoofer my guess is its sa 8 v1.5
U GUYS SHOULD SALE A FEW OF THOSE DUST CAP WEIGHTS THOSE ARE SO COOL BECAUSE PEOPLE THAT RECONE SUBWOOFERS WOULD AND BUILD SUBWOOFERS JUST AN SAYING I'D BUY A COUPLE (✌🏼💪🏼🔈✌🏼💪🏼🔉✌🏼💪🏼🔊)
Glad to see more vids like this! Keep it rollin!
Anything on carbon fiber yet???
Okay it's official, I'm buying sundown next time
If you are running one sundown sub,what size and model would you use and why?
I have a question for you guys. Do you have any subs with a low FS, sub 25hz that would work well in a home audio environment?

Were can I get a SHIM for a NSV4 15 man? I see you have tons of SHIMS laying around

William Lewis x motor is 50 pounds
The difference between a xv2 and a zv5 is you get 500 more watts of continuous power handling and an even bigger badass motor
Great behind the scenes build room footage and yes, that NSv.4 motor that was dipped looks sick in person. It immediately caught my eye.
15:26 Oh wow, carbon fibre. I have just build a Bandpass with a 27 years old 10" Monacor driver - It's got a carbon fiibre cone with a neat dark red epoxy finish.
Im curious if u guys build ur own coils? Ik DD has a coil winder im just curious if sundown has its own...
well my sundown 2 eights blew out i brought an 12 sa can I ship them 8s back n get a 12sa?
I've been incredibly impressed with my sa-12 I've had for a few years now I can only imagine what my vehicle would sound like with a higher level sundown sub than the one I have, looks like it might be time for a upgrade lol
Just watching makes me want do something Sundown.

Sitting in a shop with these monster subwoofers every day is so awesome.
So does he build for sale or is this only build for his truck
Cant' wait for the carbon fiber cones! Think i'll be holding out for the new neos with carbon cones.
Do employees get free sub and amp!? 😁

I wish one of those B stock subs just magically appeared on my doorstep 😁
How many times you gonna comment? Let some other ppl comment!! Damn
You snooze you lose
which series are good bandpass subs...i want to use some sundowns in a new build
After watching this make me wanna buy 2 sundown 12s hmmmmmmmm
That'll be $3100, will that be cash, credit, or first born?
They got them and we bump them

@@Str8GasGenetics I don't know, never done it. That why I was wondering. Thanks. now I know.
Another great video keep bringing that bass.
Been waiting for ever on the 6.5 v3’s! When are they coming??
A magnetizer lines up all the electron spins in the motor. To demagnetize it does the opposite
Yeah would love to see that magnetizer in action
More like 'hear' the magnetizer in action!
@@pgmurray76 Yep & it's all over & done with in a second, just like me pleasing the wife.
@@HashDogg06 LOL! You crazy, but hilarious!
Nightshade all day!!!!! Team ferrites are beautiful. Subs like that are stuff of my dreams
Well get a good job work a bunch of hrs and that's all to it... You want something bad enough you will get it!! Sucks shit don't MYSTERIOUSLY APPEAR WHEN WE WANT IT gotta earn that shit....
Carbon cones!!!!!???? Yes!!!! God Bless Sundown
Can you guys make a 2500 to 3000rms version of the u series sub? I love the u series sound..btw, how much max power can a u12 take daily?
Hey deric I got some older soundstream t615inch baskets that need drop in kits 900watts rms 2.5dual4ohm coils
Can y'all do a drop in for a 12 in Soundstream RW-12 series?
Dave Leib probably can, look him up on Facebook.
At 13:49 I think that was the sundown zv3 12
Are you guys going to get into building Lithium packs?? Sundown Lithium.. Hmmm sounds great!!
How much is a drop in for a x15
What are the speakers on the left at 12:50?
that one beside the tiger stripped nsv4 looks like a sdv1
Josh Hanson I don’t think I ever saw a sdv1
Can u refurbish a double din Boss Stereo
Jason Zen no because boss is shit sundown is too high quality for that
So I'm confused love your product but how do I know what to order what you build to the stuff you have that says made in China... keep killing it...
Thanks for the video its always exciting too see a walk around of the building 🤙🤙
Awesome video! I want to do Sundown subs and amps in my ride one day.
Yea bro I appreciate the build room videos. Always liked to see the process of becoming the masterpiece
Yo man.. nice vid ... but is it possible .... i got a burn voice coil of a 12 " dd sub... but want a sundown coil.. cone and dust cap... possible??
Ginovannel Pawiroastro dm them on Instagram their Instagram is sundown audio unofficial or email them
So cool man, thanks for the tour!!
Can I put two speakers in the same ported box with them being different size subs
William Royer oh yea you can
Do you have any SQ subs?
I tried getting a recone for a e-8 v.3 and they refunded my money saying they can’t make it.

Got with Dave for my XV2
Love it
So lemme get that pallet of 12s lol I need me a wall for my blazer build
Can you magnetize a pro audio magnet? I've got a Peavey that has no magnetism, and Peavey can't do anything about it.😣
Damn it Bobby

Messaged them several times and never get a respnse
love my x 15 so much.
man I wish I have a job building Sundown Audio woofers 😊
Great video of the build room. Have u guys suffered with the extra tariff 💩w/China? I hvnt seen any $$ increase. Appreciate it honestly. ✌
Maybe that's why they went back to made in 'merica as another company it's
How much do u guys sale the subs for

is there ever a point where motor is too big for the rest?? I've seen x12 v2 motors throw that cone around like crazy.. I could only imagine a zv5 or a nsv4 12...
The X actually has more effective motor force then the Z and the nsv4. According to 3rd party testing.
Second to comment. Not bad. Always try to be #1. Shout out from San Antonio,Tx. Love your products. Just can't afford one. Yet!!!

yes they are! I have 2 18's and I will NEVER!!! run anything other than Sundown subs again.

You mentioned an internship explain a little more please
We do internships every summer for college students wanting to work while they're out of school
I need one
So, in theory you could beef up an E8v5 on that magnetizer so that it might handle a bit more power??? Just curious.
No it can only recharge not give it steroid's bro
