Ascendant Audio

For those of you who have read this small Forum area will hava noticed my dying urge to get hold of an Avalanche. Chad hasn't contacted me still in over a week and hasn't signed on to the forums, does anyone happen to have any relevant contact information which he uses that they wouldn't mind PM'ing or posting to me. Thanks.

Chad, Just trying to reach you here. Please check your phone messages about the old 1803. Thanks, Jim

I notice you have made posts in the forum, but haven't yet replied to my PM's or post in another thread I am desparate for an avalanche, having had 3 sales of one with people fall through for one reason or another over a year, and won't be able to 'bid in' for one on Monday. Sorry to make a spam type thread, I am just dying to get hold of one of these though for home audio.

Something seems slightly wrong on the AA website regarding the dual 2 ohm AA Chaos 10 inch. Using the T&S figures given on site the box size for a sealed enclosure seems wrong, when I calculated it out if the box is 0.6 cu ft (min. size) the system QTC is 0.55 which is of course very low and for 1.0 cu ft (max. size) the QTC is 0.49. So what is wrong the T&S figures or min and max box sizes.

Just finished installing a Chaos 12 in 02 Ford Mustang coupe. Running off a SAE-1000d in a ported box. I forgot the exact specs of the box but its around 1.8 cu ft tuned to 34hz. Metered at 137.0 on a TL in the kickpanel. Sounds pretty damned good too!

Any specs yet on teh Chaos series? Last I heard from Scott they were similar to the SSD? If you guys have them , i'd like to see the specs on the upcoming "Chaos" series woofers.... its looking like either 8 or 12 of the 15" 's in the new trailblazer.

Im looking for the Chaos sub specs, the website doesn't show them just the other models. Assassin, Arsenal, and Havoc. I have 2 1000 watt amps and was think of going either Chaos or Havoc.

Ive been all over the forum trying to figure out which sub would work best for me and I still havent come to a conclusion. Most recently, Im thinkin about either a 12" Chaos or 12" Havoc. I have a 2.5 cubic ft box ported and Im planning on buying an audiopipe ap10001d or ap15001d depending on which sub I choose. I drive an infiniti sedan so the box will be in the trunk. I am currently running on Fi X 12 at 2ohms with 250 watts from a fosgate prime and it sounds good for a $250 setup but I want an increase in SPL without having to build a new box. Is the Havoc worth the extra money in my situation or will the Chaos being a satisfying upgrade from the Fi X? I know it can be…

What's in the boxes you ask

Hey guys. New to the SSA forum. I've been doing a lot of research lately on getting a new sub. So far I have just bought the wire and cap. I will be buying a Fosgate T10001BD soon, so I'll have about 1200+ to 1600 watts to work with. I'm trying to choose a sub to put on my amp. I have a box built... 3.6 after all displacement, tuned to 29~31 (probably 30 by my math). I don't have the extra time or money to buy another box, and mdf is over an hour's drive away. I listen to rap. Jeezy, T.I., Three 6, 8ball & MJG, etc etc. I'm not worried about rock. I want a sub that can take 1400 watts daily easily and will hit good 28 to 40. By my research, the AA Havoc seems to sui…

whats the inches on the voice coils of each line mostly the arsenals is it 2.5" 3" or 4"

I was just curious what sizes do the sets come in 5.25in, 6.5in. 7 in, 8 in, etc? Also is there a passive crossover included or do i need to build one myself? (I'll probably be running active but just want to make sure at first). Also, what are the tweeters? The last time i remember they were Morel, and from the other comp sets i've seen they look like Morel tweeters. Thanks, Julian.

Hey Im lookin to get a Comp set that I can bi-amp.. will you have some that I can do this with? Thanks Troy

I was lurking around on the Ascendant audio website and i found a picture of this lowered truck.. I don't know if it's a company truck or just a customers but there is only one picture of this truck, if you guys have ANY more i'd love to see them! http://www.ascendantaudio.com/gallery.php Thanks, Dom

i wanna know how the havoc compares to the fi bl. i have the fi bl but im thinking of switching to the havoc. im not sure though because ive never heard the havoc but by reading the reviews its way better than the q. is it better than the bl? how so?

okay so i was wondering what i should do...the gains were set with an o scope, everything installed correctly, box size was good, no clipping ...it literally just tore straight in half...has to be one of the colest things i have ever seen...everything looked right in the box but when i pulled it out the cone was in half..i know there is no fixing it but i was wondering if maybe i could just get a new cone/dust cap put on the old basket ....by the way it is a 12" aresenal......i still have the voice coil and spider and the motor and basket are still in mint mint condition and i feel it would be a waste to just throw it......so can i "fix" it anyway or should i just make a …

Can it handle 1500 rms? Trying to finalize my system and torn between a 1k and 1.5k amp.

I trying to find a working phone number or email. Does anyone have either of the two by any chance

Can I get an idea on the cost of reconing one of the newer Havoc 15's? And what would the cost be to convert it to a 12"? I might have a line on a 15 motor and basket for the cheaps.

I have a dealer in my area that is selling AA. I have heard tons of great reviews about it. I've seen videos on youtube and some help then others do not. I am looking for a new setup for my car. (cavalier 2 door) I listen to rap and rock so I really like a clean hard hitting sound. I was thinking 4 8" assassins but I am not sure how well they do spl wise. Basically I am looking for a setup that will have some decent spl output while keeping the sound as clean as possible. Any insight on this will be greatly appreciated.

Is the mayhem louder then the btl??? How much are the mayhems? And last do they have options like the btls?

does anyone know how hard it is to put together a crossover. i know the concept of a crossover and some components of it, but dont know if i want to take on the task im sure its easy for some. i talked to a dealer but i would want to have the components and not know how to put the crossover together.

I am a dealer in Fort Smith Ar and im curious if anyone knows if ascendent has gone out of bussniness or just a shady bussiness. I have been tring to get my 6 subs back for 4 months now due to leads being to short on the assassin subs. At first they said they would not fix them, then said they would due to a manufacturing defect after further reveiw, but now they are not answering there phones, emails or returning calls from voicemails. If any one is having the same issues please post. This may put a spark under there butt. I've made this same post on Ascendants Facebook page to hopfully get a response and low and behold the post was deleted.....

I sent a email and wrote to a person from aa about a re cone kit about 2 weeks ago and have not got a response back...you have a great product but you guys made the subs wrong, on 2 of mine I have 4 aa 8's and 2 of them have uncentered voice coils so i wanted to re cone to fix this prob with out spending the money to send them in, if some one could help me that would be great. But for now I am a slight un happy customer. I under stand that fi and aa r busy but its been about 2 weeks... but again if I can get a re-pile back it would be great Thanks, Craig Jones

Hi guys, A friend of mine wants to buy 2 12" Mayhem. He has an MTX te4000 amp for the bass, and he will do all the electrical upgrades he can later. He already has some Optima batteries, he needs to do the big3. His old sub was a Pioneer premier 15" spl monster !! But it has a problem ! All 3 Pioneer spl subs I saw here have been blown !!! I am trying to tell him that he needs only a 12" sub because he drives a small car with a small trunk : it's a Renault Clio ( 2 or 4 doors, I don't remember), hatchback car. He thinks he need 2 Mayhem on his MTX amp. What would you do ? One Mayhem D1 to use the amp at 2 ohms, and later another sub to run both with the same amp, if he …
