    I'm running my sa 12 @ 2 ohms 1400 watts rms. Takes my rearview mirror off my windshield. Insane how loud 1 12 can get. 2 years going strong!

    Hands down my favorite line. This is where the phrase “more bang for your buck” may have been coined 😆 I call it a sleeper sub. Got a pot’na (MrBodean2010) on YT, that’s been running his four SA/12s for several years now. Upgrade to a 12k, putting the boots to them. Taking the power like a champ. Finally retired them, with 0 issues and upgraded to the U series......🤯 I’m a Sundown believer 💯

    I love mine .. absolutely 100 % worth way more than what I paid for it... been hitting it with about 1100 watts for over a year and it hasn't missed a beat ... the performance of the sa-12 turned me into a sundown fan . since then I've gotten sa 6.5 components and just ordered sae100.4 from down for sound .. my plans are to have strictly sundown audio only in my car .. thanks for the great products

    I'll second you on that my man. My first experience with Sundown was my friend's v1 SA-12, it BLEW ME AWAY with the output. I could not believe the quality and extension that came from it, all I knew up to that point was Rockford Prime and lower end stuff... Had the boys at King Kong Audio surprise my girlfriend with a 12 incher, and now my whole family is on the Sundown hype train. Great products, great people, Sundown for life.

    Love my SA-12, it's in a 2.0 cu.ft. slot ported box, older Kenwood exceleron 1600 mono amp pushing 900 rms, never gets warm, cannot bottom it out with this setup. The thing loves power. Tuned at 30hz nice and low. Amazing value, the power handling/quality/price ratio was why I gave you my money. No one around me had heard of Sundown, then i told em it was single ported 12", LOL gets em every time.

    All SA series subwoofers are made in China. They're a lower level less expensive line of product that's easier and less expensive to have made in our build house in China. We are capable of building them here in the US and do rebuilds on SA subs on a regualr basis. If we built them all here the price would have to go up and nobody would want to pay it.

Yup i remember tiny subs like these when i had my starter system YRS ago lol, shit now i could run more then 10 at once with my amp set to half way and ide blow these things apart. Bout damn time sundown has a sub which the price vs performance actually balance out.

I had challenged you to a one on one in person you pick any sundown 12 you wanna and ill pull one of my 12's outa my box and well do a side by side which is easier and faster you completely failed to respond to that comment yet responded with your as usual repeat comment. You challenged a guy years ago who u knew would back outs building a sub which i had stated ide love that challenge which you failed to respond to that as well. you seem to do a great job talking big on people who dont take your challenges yet you dont like to respond to those who challenge you with facts. come this summer when i add more subs to my setup ill gladly go head to head with you on who hits harder. im going to 6 of my 12s ive already seen what 8 of my 12's can do on only 20k watts.
