    Just ordered my set of Assassin 12's today (I cant wait!!!) and Im wondering what to do a/b the box. I have 4cubes total before disp of anything to play with. They will be behind my bench seat in my 84 GMC single cab, so I planning on the subs on the passenger side, with a slot port out of the drivers side. What tuning/port area should I use for these? I know my old 8" assassins loved higher tuning (45htz) are these new line subs different? Suggestions/opinions please!

    Who is administering the warranty for Ascendant audio? I realize that there is a merger with Ficaraudio. I wasn't sure if I should post the question here or at Ficaraudio's spot. Scott and I have exchanged a few e-mails as I have been trying to isolate my problem. He has been EXTREMLY helpful, especially considering how busy he must be. Now that I know which driver I'm having issues with and what part failed, I'm curious which vendor will help me and if the 3 year warranty is still valid. I've got my driver boxed up and ready to ship, just wondering where it'll end up. Carl

    I am going to change my current setup and most parts I already have or will be shipped soon. One thing I am missing, is the subwoofersetup. Since this is really important to me, I need your guys advice. Just informational: Current setup: And the new layout...New setup: I was planning to go for 3 new Mag's from Stereo Integrity. But I am still looking at other options. One of those options, is 2x AA 15" Havoc's in a sealed enclosure. But that raises a few questions; I see mainly people here which use those subwoofers ported. But how do the 15" AA Havoc's sound in a sealed enclosure? And what is the minimum recommended sealed enclosure? I like the bass to be speedy (not …

    Still working on my AA Arbiter and needed help with my Precision Port tubes. The enclosure plans call for a 3" diameter and 5" length port. The enclosure is a 1.0 cu.ft. I have two questions..... 1. What is the tuning freq. of the enclosure 2. Are the dimensions for the port specifically for a Precision Port or is this for your regular 3" tube at 5" length. Reason I ask is because the Precision Port directions have different direction for tuning. I guess this is because of the flare on both sides. I really need some help with this. AA experts I need you. Thanks, Bob

    I am looking at the arsenals and chaos series subwoofers. The thing is I do not know what the prices are for the two mentioned subs. I am looking into 12's and 15's for both models, and based on the price I will be able to make the best decision on what is the best for the buck, since they are both high quality. The problem is that I have e-mailed AA twice requesting pricing info but have not heard back from them. I understand they are busy but it has been a week or so. I am pretty positive that I do not have a dealer in my area, but for those who might have some inside info my zip is 29369. All this being said what would be the best way to get in touch with them so I can…
