Ascendant Audio

Im really looking at getting a pair of these to run off my kx2500.1. I can't really find info on box specs though. Does 14-16cuft tuned to 30hz sound to be right.

i have two assasin 8`s in a sealed box . what kind of amp would u recomend? fosgate 600.1 d or something. thank for any info.

I know the rms rating on the havocs is 1250 but how much can they really take? would an SAZ-3000D be too much?

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?

Hello everyone, well after sitting in the FI forum, I've gotten a good deal recently for the Ascendant audio line up, which I've heard is very similar to the fi q of which I originally wanted for less than that of a Q. Both subs are now pretty much the same price, Havocs being cheaper slightly. So I ask you all if any of you have heard the differences between the Q and the Havor in terms of sound. I've talked to a few people and Scott regarding the two subs, and from what I understand is this. The Havoc was made to handle more power out of the box compared to a Q with no BP option, they were made to handle more power so they should be able to handle a bit more abuse. …

I finally got around to building the box for my Havoc 12's. The second one arrived last week, but I just hadn't had time to work on it. Here's a few pics of the box. It 4.3^3 @ 36hz w/ double front and rear baffles.

Hi, i’m from germany and i’m looking for some ascendant audio subs. i have an us amps usa-3000 (class a/b) and now i have to decline between two havoc 15d2 or a single mayhem 18d1. I want silly lows for tracks like “put on by jeezy” or “love for money by drama”. the box would be the same for both installations. i have space for a 7 cu ft. box after all displacements with a 85 in² port tuned to ~28 hz. So what do you think would be the best choice for me in this box? two havocs have more cone area, i think this could be an advantage for my goal but what i’ve heard the Mayhem is a very brutal sub. thanks for your help carsten

I recently got 2 of the new Havocs with the solid pole and improved cooling, and I must say these subs are AWESOME. I've owned the older model havocs before (2008) and these are much better! Each is powered by a RF T1500-1bdcp (1800+ rms) and they seem like they need more...LOL. Box is 11.85 after displacements tuned to 29hz. No vids yet be will have some soon

id like to run 2 18 havocs sealed off a bxi 2610 and i have ~ 12 cft of space for the box. the reason i want to go sealed is the more flat response and stronger low end production. does 12 cft work well or is it too much / less.

Hey, im currently in iraq looking for amp possibilities, for my new Havocs. Im currently Looking at the Sundowns... Looking at either the Saz-2000D, or the Saz-2500D. Which do you guys think. Or another Amp around the same price? any help would be appreciated. Moving from an 12" Fi SSD w/ Memphis MCD500. any help would be greatly appreciated =] aaron

alright i bought 4 assassins from a friend well old friend now lol. only got 3 of em and the run around when i tried gettin the last one. the box i had is falling apart to say the least and its time for a new one. was gonna get one from a shop and waited a month to find out if i have them make me one they want 190 bux. screw that the box was only gonna b like 2.4 cubes. ive tried a few of the box calculators and not having the best results and vents under 3 inches seems too small but ascendant doesnt give any rec on port area so i was hoping somebody could give me a hand. id like to slap it together today or tomorrow. its gonna house 3 of em on the front with the vent on …

i currently have 2 15in havocs, thinking of gettin a 3rd. but im now looking at the mayhems and cant decide if its worth sellin the havocs and replacing them with the mayhems or just adding the 3rd 15. air space really isnt an issue, im using precision ports and for the amp im using the saz3500. thanks everyone.

I have 4 atlas 12's that i am putting in my living room in 2 seperate sealed boxes. Wiring a pair together what would my final imp. be? I'm going to use a pro amp that puts out max power at 2 ohms but still cranks out the juice at 4 ohm as well. I'm kinda lost with this 4/2 ohm coil configuration. I also would like know what size box would be right too. I know there is a low, mid and high qts settings, does that relate to the 2 ohm coil being open, shorted or adding a resistor? If i shorted the 2 ohm coils and wired the 4 ohm coils in parallel would i achieve a four ohm load using two subs? If i did this to the other 2 subs and then parelleled them together as four would …

I have four original Assassin 8's BNIB sitting in my closet that I was going to use for my car but I've decided to get out of car audio so now I'm thinking about using them for my home theater/stereo. I've already decided on some Acculine Tower and center speakers so my thoughts are to build two sub towers to go off to the sides of the L/R main Towers, each containing two of the Assassin 8's. It'll mainly be for movies and video games but I'd like the subs to work well with music. I'm looking for something different than sealed or regular ported boxes due to the rather high FS of the Assassin 8's, I've been thinking of an Aperiodic Bi-Chamber (ABC) or Transmission Line bo…

Nothing special... I'm not all that great at building boxes... but here is what me and and my friend threw together. about 10 different braces lol. I had a bunch of extra internal space.

can a AA rep pm me some prices on 6.5s and 6x9s cause there is no dealer around here

like the title says im planing my new setup and im thinkin either 8 assassin 12s, 6 arsenal15s, or 4 chaos18s. its gonna be for demos and fun not for numbers so if i port its gonna be low and sealed is even a possibility. i have a lil over 30cuft to play with, more if i get creative. electrical is covered im looking to give each sub rms power. im goin for the wow factor. basicly the question is which do you think would be more bad ass to see lol. all opinions are welcome

One of my assassin 8's quit working i think the amp came in contact with metal - Could i get this repaired? If so how would i go about doing so?

i have a post on steve's page and a few people recomended the aa 8's. and i have a box design i want to use.. but im not sure on the tuning and airspace..

Im excited because im 1 step closer to completimg my build. Thank you Scott and Brian Owens for everything! SMD 18

do anyone know of an A.A dealer near 60099 IL or 53142 WI

Hiiii, im building a sub box for a ascendant mayhem, but RE calc is wayyy off.. So I was wondering if i could get some help with someone so i can get the understanding of doing this so i dont have to have help again. PLEASE. The Mayhem is single 12", and in ported can only be in 1.75cf - 3cf. And sub displacement i know nothing of which i do and this is confusing i have 2 sheets of plywood ready to be drawn on, all going to be 1.5" thick unless you think otherwise? Was thinking around 25-35 wide, 15-17" high, 18" deep but the hertz from torres, 12 volt, and RE are all different and confuse me! Could someone make up a thing for me that would work prime around 2-3 cubic ft …
