Ascendant Audio

Here is a little woffer porn And here is the MAYHEM opening the sunroof shade....

Snippet from the review. Enjoy.

Well there is finally SOMETHING on the web address. It's all f'd up but it's something. The web design looks a little odd. There's also a header for amps...

So how do I go about this , do I email someone or are the T/S going yo be posted up any time soon on a forum or on the AA website ? want to make a backloaded horn for it so simply giving box recomendations won't work for me . thanx.

Well I'm really aching to get some new subs, well really a new entire set up but at the moment only subs. Currently I have a 12" cvr and I'm really dissapointed in it. It probably has to do a lot witht the enclosure but I really didnt feel like trying to make a new one for it. As always money plays a mojor role in my decisions and I"m kinda torn between (2) 12 Assassins and (1) 12 Q. I have really been wanting to buy the Q, but one of the things holding me back is the amp. I really cant afford to buy both an amp and a sub. I will most likely be using the amp i currently have pushing my cvr. It's nothign spectacular, not even great, but it works. Its a performance…

Time to upgrade. Think I am going to do 2 SMD's now so the Mayhems need to go. Since this is a forum for Ascendant Audio I might as well let that be known here. The mayhems are Fing amazing, but as alot of people in the car audio field see....there is always louder. lol. That being said...whats the price on 2 18inch SMD's and where would a recommended place be to sell the 2 18 inch mayhems that I currently have?

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 …

Started working on the doors of the trailblazer yesterday.....2 x 7in asecendant midbass in each of the front doors, as well as 2 tweeters (probably 4).... pics...didnt get too much done but here they are... badass jigsaw... - some VERY rough pre cuts

im still trying and it keeps popping up 1 item on paypal. where is the order number do i send it threw a message when sending the money

So, I understand the two companies are focused on different areas of the market, but I'd like some help figuring out which sub to buy. I've got an awesome wife who wants to buy me one for Christmas. Can someone who has experience with both of these subs try and explain the difference a person might be able to hear, like is one louder than the other in their spec'd boxes? I see some differences in construction (triple vs double magnet and spiders) and t/s specs (Bl, Vas, etc.), what differences would these make. I'm looking for an LSQ set-up that will play mostly rock with a little rap to show off with. I would really like to fit a 15" in the trunk of my '94 Mazda 626,…

I was wondering what the recommended tuning for 2 12" Ascendant Audio Havocs would be? The box will be 5cubes, just wondering what good tuning would be

Im running a 450.4 RF amp @ right now im using the rear channesl for the rear speakers ( go free Type R mids so im using them no active ) So what can i do I would like silk tweeters I like smooth sounds.... 70$ total budget doesnt need to be high end stuff just that the polly mids running full freq sounds good but not great cant pull the highs but so well bass is lovely So what can i do RF 450.4 70$ budget No active in a 92 caprice wagon Want silk but idk Just steer me right if that number is too low tell me

I've got two 10" assasins that were in a Wicked One. Needless to day, the wicked one gave great sound (SPL and SQ) but it is simply too big. I am looking for some ideas for a relatively small box. I have two ideas, simple ported or isobaric ported. The majority of the music will be heavy metal and country with the occasional rap song as well. It is going in a 2001 Grand Prix with Alpine Type S Co-Axils (40w per side) and stock rear speakers. The avalable space is: 13" Tall (wiggle room) 36" Wide 15" Deep They have a Hifonics ZX440 for power. This isnt going to compete and it doesnt need to impress, merely give the output in the range stated. This will be built by newyear…

Alright, here is my NEW setup that I will be planning. Two Twelve Inch AA Havocs, on a SAZ-3000D. Wired down to 1 ohm, so each sub will be getting 1500 watts rms. What would i need to tune the subs to ( I listen to mostly rap), What cubic feet for the box, and i would like to use tubes instead of a L or slot port. How many amp hours would i need to power the SAZ? I think im going with 120 amp hours, i have a stock 100 amp alt, big three with 0 gauge, and replacing front and throwing a powermaster in front and back. I have a RATHER large trunk, seeing how i have 95 Lumina there is already a 4.5 cubic foot box and its only taking up 1/2 of my trunk area i think i could fit…

UPS just showed up and dropped off 4 of these beauties Picked these up for a decent sized sealed setup. There is a bassrace show coming up on the 19th so hopefully I'll have some numbers on them soon. Will be running them off of an american bass 500.1 at .5 Really can't wait to watch some movies in the truck with these guys

Chevy extended cab truck that runs on vegoil. 18" mayhem in an 8 cu ft box tuned to 28 hz. Powered by an SAZ-3000d with a Kinetik HC2400 in the cab. Unfortunately, I'm still waiting for the 200 amp alt from Excessive Amperage. Surprisingly, the OZ Audio 4x6 coaxes in the dash wang pretty damned good! The box is tuned pretty low so this setup REALLY shakes everything. Its quite ridiculous. The mayhem actually sounds pretty decent until I turn it up. Then all I can hear is the roof flexing. I did a quick measurement on the TL and posted a 145. That's just hopping in the car and playing a quick sweep. I was too busy wearing out my electrical system play the 30 hz ton…

This is my first decent video of these subs powered by a MA HK4000D, playing "I Need Dubs" chopped n screwed. This song doesnt hit low enough but it still serves the purpose ill try n get a better vid sometime soon. [url="http://s294.photobucket.com/albums/mm91/bumpinrossi/?action=view

Finally got them up plenty more later and they will be longer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGyPkvVz294 just breaking them in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-b1urYKCp0E

Hey dudes, A per title, I am building a wall in my Car (E10 Corolla) With 2 Mayhem 18's, And between 5-10Kw of power. I'm not chasing numbers, I want streetbass but I am wanting to get reasonable numbers on a Mic, Was thinking about 14cuft after displacements tuned to 32Hertz, how does that sound?? I want to keep in mind that I will prob upgrade from Mayhems to SMD's at some stage next year maybe Any advice welcome Cheers quinny

So i've had an 15Q, 3.6ft^3 tuned to 32hz, and it sounds amazing and hits the lows LOUD. It's been good to me, loud enough to impress any but i need a change. I go to K-State therefor don't get to see my car much so i kinda wanna play around with this next setup. My USamps 2000XD is powering my Q so i'm gonna keep it for the 8's. I've been lookin at the AA's and they look nice but how low could i necessarily tune with a proper ported box? If not the AA's what other suggestions are there? 4-6 8's just sounds like fun and i'll get the punchy bass on the whole spectrem i'm hopeing.

I got a problem i want two havoc 15s but they are 2ohm subs and my amp is 2500 at one ohm can i use the amp i got with two 2 ohm subs

Wassup guys...Im looking into uprgading my current system: Sony xm-D9001GTR mono amp (550w @ 4 ohm/ 900w @2 ohms) pushing some new Sony XS-L123P5B 12's 330w RMS 1300peak blah blah....nothing too spectacular but due to the size of my sealed box, they hit pretty decent... Was debating switching to 2 of the AA Assassin Series 12"D4...im guessing I cant push these at 2ohm due to the amp and them being DVC 4 ohm subs and technically they'd probably run best a 4 ohms on this amp(550w)... For the hardest hit, should I just run 2 at 4 ohms(550w) in my current sealed box which is pretty big(dont know exact specs on it, maybe like 2.5ft in each chamber )...or run 4 of them at 2 o…

Who can I email for warrantee info for my Assassin 8, the cone seperated from the motor. I'd like to keep this private, no need to put pics or w/e here. Thanks guys.

I just hooked up my new havoc 18 to a behringer 2500. The sub is wired in series for a 4 ohm load. This is my first issue. The sub comes up at about 6 ohms when wired. this is not the 4 ohms that it should be. I realize it is never exact but 2 ohms off seems strange. The sub is wired according to this.. http://www.the12volt.com/12voltimages/1_2ohm_dvc_4ohm.gif I have double and triple checked it. Now here is my big issue. When powering the sub, at what i would call moderate levels, there is a terrible banging noise that comes on certain notes. I'm afraid that this is the sub bottoming out. However, I dont see how this could be with the kind of music that it is doing…

What's going on with AA website? Getting revamped?
