Ascendant Audio

  1. Started by mwoehr,

    Anyone have the Arsenal Series or heard them? My friend is looking for a pair of 12s for sealed operation to power off a JL Audio 1000/1. These look nice but how would they sound sealed?

    so ive seen that ppl have been rebuilding sub to a different diameter and im wondering if i should consider it an option? right now i have a 12in AA arsenal running of 600rms, in a 2.2 cubes net, ported to 30hz and im pretty happy with but i was considering the possiblity of going to a 10 in a ported box or a 15 sealed because i think it would sound better.... is this just a waste of time? its 2 in the morning so maybe my heads not in the right place.... could i go 18" just for chits and giggles???? lol

    I just bought a SAZ1500.1 and sold the Q's about 3 months into it. I would like to know if it is possible to have a pair of Havoc's made with D1 coils? If this is possible, will this significantly effect the drivers performance, BL, etc... to the point where I should just wait until I can buy another amp? Please let me know. Thanks, Chris

    Hey guys my friend is thinking about picking up one of these and i just have a few questions - What is the RMS on it and how much would it be able to take? - What is the recommended box size/hz? - How does it compare to subs like re sx, hc, fi ssd/q.. etc? I would get the new arsenal but the RMS is only 500 and my friend wants 750-1000.. if you dont know the answers, then its all good. thanks for the help

    How do Havocs do sealed? I know they have plenty of displacement but I am ignorant when it comes to specs and was just wondering how they perform sealed, were they designed with sealed in mind, or ported. Or maybe its both like the Q. The woofers look great, btw. I was wondering if it would be worth trying 3 12's sealed in my rear deck off a sundown 3000d. or Would I be better off with 2 ported on the 3000d. I have a ava in my truck in 4 cubes or so (can't remember) tuned to 28hz, and it gets stupid low and loud, but the top end is really lacking, I don't wanna have this problem in my baby (95 Impala SS)....

  12. Has anyone actually heard a Chaos? I had my heart set on a Havoc 12 but I'm afraid it may now be a little too rich for my blood after seeing the dealer MSRP. If anyone has actually seen a Chaos in action would you consider it a worthy upgrade to the 1st gen Arsenals? My plan is to get a refurbished Sundown SAE 1000D to power either the Chaos 12 or the Havoc 12. I won't be doing anything for several months but I just want some reliable info before I dive into it. Thanks.

    Hey guys, I'm new to the forum so bear with me. I'm looking to pick up 2 10" subs but I'm deciding between two. The first choice would be 2 10" AA assassins. My other choice would be two DD 510Bs. There specs look the same but i don't know which to get. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Apologies if this has been asked before but I searched and nothing came up. I want to run a 15" Havoc but my amp (Zapco 6.0) is only 2 ohm stable mono. Can AA make these in dual 4ohm versions?

    Ok. Long story short... My current set-up the last 2 and 1/2 years is 2, 12" Atlas's in a sealed box. I'm not sure the specs for the box but they were set exactly like chad told made by someone on sound domain who was a good box builder =). Anyways ; I wanted to get 2 Assassin 12's because Chad told me they could be drop-in replacements. My girlfriend thought as a christmas present she should get me the Arsenals' instead because they cost more and would be better. I didn't find this out till they were shipped to my house. My current amp is Alpine 605m. It does 600RMS at 2 ohms, and 400RMS at 4... It is not stable at 1 (unfortunately =(..) My atlas's were hooked up at 2…

    Hi, I've got an AA Avalanche 12 that I purchased about 4 years ago. Last year it started cutting in and out intermittently so I shelved it saying I'd deal with it later. I had it in a 1.25ft^3 sealed box on a 350W PG amp. I don't get any grinding noises when i push on the cone and see no physical damage. Can anyone tell me who I can get in contact with to possibly get this thing repaired, assuming it's cost effective? I really enjoyed the sub while it worked. When I bought it, I was looking for a low priced sub with XBL^2 ( used to have a Brahma) and this sub was perfect. I just read that AA is in the process of a merger and there really isn't a whole lot of info …
