Sundown Audio Nightshade NS-Series NS5 10" 3000W Subwoofer NS v.5

The NS v.5 is the absolute top-tier driver in Sundown's "ultra-high excursion" sub-woofer lineup with a 3” coil. All models (10,12,15,18) feature our custom tooled and patented frames (US Patent Numbers D691596, D691597, D691598, and D741841). Our proprietary frames allow 4” or more of peak-to-peak mechanical excursion. From here the NS (Nightshade) line diverges dramatically from our other lines. The motor is based on our patented S.A.I.N.T. (Sundown Audio Intelligent Neodymium Technology) Design (US Patent Numbers US10382874B2 and USD791740S1). As of the release of the NS v.4/v.5 series these are the only products in our line to utilize this all new and proprietary design. The Nightshade v.5 features an enormous 45mm (1.77”) magnetic gap to ensure the coil is always under control. This motor drives a 3" diameter 8-Layer Flat Wire Aluminum Coil with an extremely long winding (3.15” long) wound on a thick aluminum former to incredible levels of excursion. With the introduction of the new light-weight motors we also incorporated several new cooling / thermal management features to push the power handling up to an enormous 3000-watts RMS: The motor utilizes N52H Neo (heat treated). The entire motor would need to be nearly 250 degrees F before the magnet is affected in any way. This is nearly 40 degrees more than is required to boil water! There are many myths surrounding Neo motors – and none of these apply to the Nightshade. The Neo magnets are sandwiched between two aluminum plates which meet the air gap along their inner edge. These plates help carry the heat away from the gap and thus the magnets and voice coil. The bottom aluminum plate is cooled by the air going in and out of the holes around the motor. The top aluminum plate is cooled by the air-flow from the spider going in and out of vented spacer ring. These plates also serve as very effective shorting rings. Furthermore, the Neo magnets themselves do not directly come into contact with the “air gap” of th
