Is she budget or not budget that is the question? For my 2021 build you'll repeatedly hear me say the theme for this build is budget. With that in mind I decided to run the Sundown SFB 8000D amp. I want to retain big bass and high SPL without breaking the bank. Stick around to see how she performs.

here we go again man
what's good youtube man it's your boy yo
dub man it's been a good weekend
um this is uh something that i tried to
hide
on i believe it was friday night uh when
i uploaded my uh
jp8 uh blue amplifier i did the unboxing
video on that there man i said hey
uh let me pull this thing out y'all
might be able to see what i got in there
um i haven't really even looked at the
video man so i don't know if y'all got a
sneak peek or not
uh last night i did do an unboxing video
of my uh
american base xfl 10. uh so now
uh to wrap up the weekend uh we're going
to go ahead and get to it man
this is the reveal for 2021. uh you know
what i've been saying man my 2021 bill
got to be going crazy
but it's got to be budget man so i just
want to come down with something nice
nice base um you know decent mids and
highs
uh go from there man so uh like i said
in other videos uh when you try to hide
stuff it's kind of pointless
uh when you put that stuff in the title
man so uh let me go ahead and open this
up and move these stickers out the way
and i even gonna say nothing because you
can see exactly what it is right over
there man so
let me get all this paper and stuff out
of here
and some shirts because you know uh if
you order some stuff from jp
okay this is nice let me get this open
man
yeah that's not on camera
i'll try to move this over here because
this is super nice
team down for sound uh camouflage look
man so
um happy to have that uh like i said you
know when you order something from him
um
you get some free shirts if i guess i
guess it depends on
like how much of a order you put in or
whatever man so
uh we got another shirt from him because
i obviously ordered the uh
down for sound uh jp8 amp
and then uh the sun down here so
we got the certified base head shirt man
so that's what's up man these are some
nice shirts
uh definitely be wearing these uh once
it gets warm out of here man but
i can't be maybe this is red
i can't remember what color i've
selected for the uh
um for the volt meters
uh because like i said i got one
one of the voltmeters uh volt meters was
for the jp8 the other one was thrown in
with this amp here man so
yes uh y'all see it uh
sundown sfb man last year i had ordered
uh two of the sundown sfb uh 1000's
um had those laying around for
i think how many i don't remember i
think i had four tens
crescendo uh pwx10s i never got around
to using them so
um ended up selling them and
uh well okay i did use one uh just for
like
a two minute testing uh just to see what
the amps sounded like stuff like that
man so
uh she was good to go uh so that
made me go ahead and get down with this
here uh with this
sfb 8k uh so like i said
last year hold on let me get this up out
of here
maybe move this over to the side because
there's something else in that box
uh but last year i had ran
uh the wolfram 7500 um
as i keep saying it's now branded as uh
the wolfram 9k
uh so but again last year i did run the
7 500
uh had two resilient sounds uh
platinum 18s uh now what you see behind
that box right there is an american bass
uh xfl 10. uh so then i lied to y'all i
said
um this year i'll be doing a couple of
tens
i always have people like i said riding
down the street
um anywhere you know just to pass in
maybe a gas station something like that
if i decided to uh you know to run
around with the music on it's always hey
man what you got in there
i always respond hey uh just two tens
and they're always like man stop
bull driving you know you got more than
that in there so
uh my theory this year is to go ahead
and run 10 so then when i say hey i just
got a couple of tens it's actually going
to be a couple
not in a couple of the sets of two uh
there's gonna be four
uh so in order for this uh
little monster here uh hopefully him and
a couple of his buddies
can team up together and handle this sfb
ak man so
uh let me get this joker open
scoot this up a little bit the box been
through a little bit
the front of the box here you know
through a little bit of a
trauma it looks like but yeah more of
the same so
um like i said you've been following the
tunnel
last year i had uh two
sfb one case so like i said more the
same as far as
the stuff that it comes with here we go
with the sundown well
i don't know why they put it like that
but uh the sundown audio base knob to me
it should be the other way around uh
because the knob is right here so why
wouldn't you flip that
and have the sun down going that way and
then obviously you got your uh
well i'll take it off the plastic keep
it all the way 100 i don't plan on using
this
uh i mean i guess there could be an
occurrence where i do
um i mean she scratched up pretty good
for her to be brand new
hopefully i can see them little
scratches on there man i mean i won't
trip about it because like i said more
than likely won't use it but
uh yeah so she has your um
power clip on here um yeah
that kind of sucks man i'm not too happy
about that
like that bass not been through hell but
i mean maybe at the end of the day maybe
they're probably like hell
whoever orders this in maybe they're not
gonna use it so and when it comes down
to me they're definitely correct so
uh there's your uh bass knob cable
phone phone core connection uh which we
all do like because we hate that 3.5
millimeter because that's pure crap
but let's go ahead and get this amp out
of here
all right so you got your allen keys
mounted hardware
one thing i'm not getting on this one
that i'm going to be uber pissed off
about
is the sundown audio um decal man i'm
supposed to get that
um as far as i know
uh last year i know sundown unofficial
derek said you know anytime you were
ordering this uh
you were definitely getting that decal
included with the amp man but
no harm no foul on that man i might hit
up down for sound
or i might even hit sign down i'm like
yo i didn't get the decal with my amp
uh kind of want two of those so
but yeah this is what it's all about
so can y'all believe that's 8 000 watts
right there
can y'all believe that's actually over 8
000 watts
if you tuned in to sundown unofficial
y'all know they did the dino on this
thing she did
61.49 at 2 ohms she did i believe 8 100
at 1.33 and she did 8 500 at one ohm
certified
so these are all your certified numbers
so i'm figuring if i do four of those
tens
uh xfls uh rated at 1500 watts rms
obviously
uh that'll equate to 6k um
if i have a lot of box rides and stuff
like that well impedance rather i guess
i should say
uh we get towards 6k or whatever the
hell we're looking at
uh they should be able to handle that
amp any given day man so
there it is this is my
two zero two one build man so uh
obviously
uh we're gonna have four of the xfl tens
to take on this big piece of amp
i guess i maybe should say a little bit
some of them because it's 8 000 watts
and it's just as
compact as it wants to be for eight
thousand watts man so
i'll try to show you on the sides i mean
i got some lotion on so it's
kind of picking up but you see your dual
uh inputs
for your power to ground uh don't want
to mess around with that warranty
sticker
and you see a nice tiffany style rcas
uh full range uh as far as the crossover
high and low
gain in your level and um
the 8 gauge speaker inputs with your
power clip and protection lights man so
and the way they did these um
you got it where you can mount it any
which way you want to man so sign down
on the top side down on the bottom man
so yes
there it is uh sundown sfb ak uh one
hell of a weekend as far as having stuff
coming in and
um hey man i'm not gonna lie
the end of the day we got some stimulus
checks coming in man so
um we got that stuff approved man might
see if i can get some more stuff coming
in here man
uh don't doubt that one bit that i will
uh but since i was on down for sound
screwing around the box gonna fall i
don't care
okay good to go
there's some his wire man so i was gonna
make a separate video on this but i
figured you know what the hell why would
i do a separate video just on some wire
uh but there it is
they're down for sound 100 ofc super
flex
uh looks like the camera is getting that
on there man so this is his clear wire
so uh once again to refer to last year
um two resilient sounds platinum 18s
uh what from 7 500 watt amp white and
black truck
so my bill was supposed to be white and
black as you'll see
this is some four rock cable uh welding
wire
that i had was going to go on the white
and black build never finished it so
uh shout out to my man julius washington
we've been talking as far as going slow
um
going slow with your build i know he
just got some rockford fall skate stuff
going in his dodge
uh truck so my deal this year
uh and the reason why i ordered this
wire is because i mean it's supposed to
be clearer but i don't know the jacket
is
white enough for me so this year you
haven't seen the car yet i've been
meaning to do a video on that one
um i don't know if i'm going to go red
and black don't really want to go red
because that's kind of old school
everybody does red and black man um
i'm honestly thinking jp dropped like
some hot pink wire
uh for down for sound uh super flex wire
so
kind of looking at that man you all know
me my
mind would go nuts uh as far as going on
the internet looking at stuff and then
i'm like okay i'll go this route
and then the next week i'll switch and
say oh screw it i'm going this way and
stuff like that man so stay tuned man i
like i said i literally enjoy
burning up gigs on the internet going
through all of this stuff and looking at
it saying okay man maybe i'll do this
maybe i'll do that or
um you know i don't know too much about
xyz so let me holler at somebody that
does have it or maybe somebody that
knows a friend that
ran that equipment and uh i'll reach out
to that person and say hey
uh you know i'm just doing some research
uh can you help me out and i'll go from
there man so
uh got this wire in so i'll just
definitely take a look at it uh compared
to
this stuff here's some welding cable
that i just had laying around there so
uh we'll go from there man so yes
uh been a good weekend one hell of a
unboxing uh like i said the jp8
got that in don't even know what i'm
gonna do with that uh i got this smb 8k
uh got the american bass xfl 10
and then uh uh this wire here man so uh
like i said stem list is coming up
um but i still feel like it's time for a
giveaway
uh so stay tuned for that man i got more
stuff coming in obviously
um and we'll try to do a giveaway man
i'm
i'm trying to collab with somebody uh
i've been
reaching out to this individual so if
they come through
uh we'll try to collab on the video
uh more than likely do a giveaway for
that video
on go from there man so y'all stay tuned
man two zero two one we getting it going
man y'all know what the deal any
questions comments concerns
