I was looking through all the threads on the new AA site on SSA and noticed that no one has directly asked for a release date of the new line. I understand, as most, that marketing strategy plays a big part in this whole scheme as does many other factors. Is there any way that we can expect a firm date on the new AA products and which products to be released (any new lines?)? I'm a big fan of AA (maybe the biggest) and would like to know when I can expect to have an opportunity to enjoy what Chad and his company have to offer. I've been told that the new line was coming out since december. I'm not pushing the issue, but just want to keep the AA fan club alive because many…

So I've got this build log going on. You can check it out HERE. It involves, dare I say, some old school Ascendant Audio Atlas subs. Taking it a step farther, I installed them IB style. Lastly, this is a, get as much bass as I can with 500 watts without losing any trunk space because I'm a sensible family man with financial limits, build. If you're interested check it out and let me know what you think. Here is a couple of teasers. Thanks for looking.

How much are your soft re cone parts for 4 aa 8's dvc and how much would be shipping i live in micigan? any help would be great

What's up? There hasn't been much going on around these parts. I figure I'd kick up the dust and ask is tjete anything in the works or is Ascendant Audio getting wrapped up? I did a quick search on the net for Ascendant Audio, but nothing. :/ Hope to hear some interesting news.

I get an error msg when I try to view it... Do you guyz know what that means??? WEB SITE WILL BE UPDATED SOOOOON!!!!!!!

Hey, my name is Joe, I was wondering if the Mayhem 12" can handle 2 AQ2200D's, and that my electrical can keep up? Electrical so far is, KinetikKHC 3800, and a Kinetik 1800. All Kicker 0 Gauge. No Big three since battery is stock in the back and that confuses me a little, and stock alt. I also popped the hood and there is no room for battery since I have the saturn ion 3 coupe supercharged and thats my guess as to why it came in the trunk.

well went to a db drag over the weekend.. bass raced a 155.3 !!! was a great time even with some minor problems.. like my rca's fallong out and i didnt even know it !! hahaha.. i am soo dumb.. maybe i could have done a 156 with both plugged in !! and my batt voltage sucked...11.6 at full tilt.. need to work on that.. my chaos subs kicked some butt and had no problems.. got i love them !! some pics...

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

If anyone lives near Ocala and would like a demo of a Havoc 15 or a BTL 15 Let me know through PM. I am off on WEDNESDAYS and SUNDAYS May sell one or the other just let me know. If you are going to be at SBN I can bring them to you!!!

Ok I had some troubles but I finally got the system in and finished. Huge thanks to scott over at Fi for taking care of me and definately going the extra mile for his customers System Info: 2 Assasain 8's Sealed box w/ .5cubes each Memphis 500/1 amp Memphis 4AWG amp wiring kit Jensen VM9312 headunit This thing pounds, I'll definately try and get some pics asap when I can get ahold of a camera.

Alright, I dunno wtf went wrong or why it happend but my two Assasain Series 8's sound like complete ass. I had a shop install my subs for me, custom built wood box, memphis 500watt amp and they BLOW!! I think my stock system bumps harder than these things. I dunno what the hell is wrong. I got the subs, they sat in the box for like a week and a half, then got installed. The installed said he looked the whole sub and system over and saw nothing wrong. They hooked up a Memphis 8'' into my box and it hit harder by itself, HELD IN PLACE, than my two subs did screwed down and cranked. Im pretty much pissed off to no extent right now, id love it if someone on here of authorit…

Ok, I am most likely purchasing the L1 and L4 legatia drivers from Hybrid next week, and would like to use the Assasin 8's to complete a 3-way active component system. My plan was to xover the L4 down to ~140 maybe 150, then have the 8's from that number down to about 45, and the 15" Q from that down to 28. Would the assassin 8 be great for this? also, I wanted to mount it in the doors, (the L4's and L1's are going in kick panels). how wold it do in IB and what kind of power handling am I looking at? (i could build little sealed enclosures for them in doors if needed. (crossing fingers) hopefully will be ready for some of next seasons SQ competitions.

Its the only assassin sub with no depth listed on the website. Anybody have this info?

i have an older assassin s4. i need the re-cone sent to 23693. thanks. how do i pay for it. i don't like paypal i don't have one so is there other payment options....

are there any 8" Assassins of the older type available? I want to have 4 4ohm assassins to run 1 ohm on a new amp I'm getting. so I need two older ones.

I am looking for some recones for this sub was wondering if anyone can point me in the right derection. Thanks for the help.

Just wondering what you guys are running to your assassins for daily. I know they are rated for 250rms but am wondering if anyone is running more than that to them.....if you are running more, how do the subs like it? thanks

I was thinking of using a pair of 8" Assassin's 8ohm 1st. gen. in an IB. This would go into my 07 Atima. Are these subs set up to run in an IB install. If not, I need to find another use for these subs.

Okay I see that the rms is 250 watts but has anyone given these a little more juice? I was thinking of trying a single 10 in around a 1 cubic foot enclosure tuned in the low 30s with 300-400 watts. I believe it should just handle that fine, but I am looking for anyone with experience or even any valid opinions. Thanks!

I have... had a pair of the original Assassin 12's until my amp decided to burn. One driver went to hell and the speaker wires actually melted off the other. Surprisingly, the speaker wire saved the second driver, but the other is a paper weight. Is it cost effective to shoot for a recone, or would it almost be better to pick out a new pair of entry level subs? Thanks

hey, I have an old model 8" assassin s4, and my coil is shot, is there a recone available for this model from either Fi or AA? also looking for a TC-1000 8" recone, the cone broke around the edge of the surround, anyone have any idea what to do about this? thanks andar

i own 1 assassin and 1 arsensal. thankyou AA!!! that was as close as i will ever get to winning the lottery i was running the assassin for alittle while with about 500rms (2x rated rms. i know... my bad... sorry). but i havent heard it with its recommened power. i could tell it had alittle better sq compared to the arsenal but off course it was not as loud... anyways... and this is all hypothetical... would 2 12" assassins with about 250-300rms each be louder and have greater sq then one 12" arsenal with 600rms? i compared them in winISD and the 2 assassins win in spl. however that program isnt always right. i think my arsenal can hit almost as hard as my 3 old pos kicker…
