well looks like my 2nd sundown 1500D just took a crap, was driving home from the Ladies 140km's away and my subs cut out randomly during a song. pulled over and found a blown 80 amp agu. So I bought a 5 pack of the same kind and blew 2 more as soon as the amp would turn on[:@]

Of course I did check all the connections and grounds before I tried the other 2........Looks like I have to send it back again with the same problem I had last time.

alright, so I checked in with the guys at SSA and they suggest I try an anl fuse.....they figure my agu is "hurting" my amp....which worked fine for 7 months or so, even blasting 20hz tones.

so today im gonna put my mrd-m501 in on an 80 amp agu....if this works I can blame the saz, right?

1 guy there says im asking for a fire and tells me to get 150amp anl and 1/0 wire asap to run 950 rms!? seems rediculous to me.....sure when I drop to 1 ohm I will, but 2 ohms should be very easy for this amp........

1 thing i did notice that where the wire meets the fuse holder theres a tiny piece of exposed wire thats a little dirty......but im sure its prolly been like that for months.....

Well when your area Sundowner rep is a 17 year old kid who works for Walmart and (im not kidding either) wears a cape around in public you gotta kinda loose a little respect for them.....Oh yes and the 16 volt power tests. lol Funny stuff.

Ya im not hear to bash them either so im not going into details oin what we found in our tests. lol But common the guy wears a CAPE!!!! ;p
