    The Sundown was specifically made to fit in enclosures less than 3" deep, that's why it has no vent holes directly in the back and why it is so squat. Just thought I'd fill you in since it was obvious you were hating on sundown. I had a meso 8 and wasn't very impressed but to each their own. 👍🏻

      I like CT and what they are trying to do, but the SA is a superior subwoofer. And cast aluminum baskets are much better than "thick" steel baskets. I feel like he is just fanboying CT now, a little disappointed.

      @@RJayRabbit no hate to him but he is a CT sounds fanboy which that's okay but I mean 85% of his videos are about CT sounds products that's why I really quit watching them and if you try telling them that CT sounds is off the shelf parts he just doesn't understand what companies do nowadays unless you originally build everything from the ground up skars and off the shelf company CT sounds and I'll show company and meaning that their stuff's catalog they take other parts from overseas off a shelf and build a subwoofer they don't design it from the ground up which that's okay a lot of companies don't do that nowadays there's only maybe a handful of them and sundown is still one of them companies

      Sundown has cooling, it’s just not in the motor, it’s between the spider and motor. These are designed as a shallow mount subwoofer. The lack of cooling in the motor allows it to mount directly against the back of the box. So, this isn’t apples to apples between the Sundown and CT Sounds Meso.

    Sundown is single slug motor 5with no pole vent so it can be bottomed out in a shallow box. I'm not a fanboy or brand loyal but I've owned SA-12d4's and they were the best subs i've ever owned.

    Cant wait to see the 2nd video! We all know the Meso is on another level and should smoke them both but I’m very curious about the Sundown vs Tropo since they are similar in price . I’m Currently working on a box for my Pro xp rzr and will be using 6.5 sub, just not sure what brand yet .

    • @ATCA
      @ATCA  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think the biggest consideration is the cost. Im still working on design an enclosure that'll work decent for all 3 woofers. I can tell you, on paper the sundown is slightly better. But it cost $30 more. The meso is only $10 more than the sundown. Its gonna be a ceap shoot

      @davidb8231 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@ATCA you are correct. I hadn’t looked at current pricing until after I made that comment. I think for anyone using just 1 of these it’s gonna be a no brainer to spend a few extra bucks and get the meso. I guess if your looking at buying 2-4 of these then the small price difference would add up quick. Luckily I need just one. But If I could find a deal on a pair I wouldn’t mind having just 1 6.5 in a tuned box for my Jeep as well.
