Two 12" Ascendant Audio Arsenals.


Recommended Posts

I plan on getting two 12" AA aresenals and running them on a DX1000.1 at 2 ohms which is 1,000 watts RMS. They are going into a ported box, thoughts, suggestions, ideas. Thanks.

from the things i've heard about em, you'll need much more power than a mere 1000 watts rms. I've got 1 vvx 12 and I'm putting that much power to that 1 sub

What the f**k is an appropriate signature supposed to look like?

Maybe I should get a single 15" Havoc?

that'd probably be better suited for that kind of power, but with decent subs, most are under rated if you push clean power to them. Normally, i buy an amp that's rated higher than what my sub(s) are so i have headroom to upgrade subs in the future

Why is it everyone thinks you have to run 10000 watts to every sub for it to perform good?

The sub is rated 500 watts. Telling someone it will not perform good at the power the manufacturer rated it at is ridiculous. . .

Current system:

1997 Blazer - (4) Customer Fi NEO subs with (8) American Bass Elite 2800.1s

Previous systems:

2000 Suburban - (4) BTL 15's and (4) IA 40.1's = 157.7 dB at 37 Hz.

1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.

Haha, no problem. Honest mistake. But I think it's pretty good setup, it'll be better than my cvr's and my kicker comps I had. I would say so anyways.

just make sure the box is decent, the box can be the difference between a great sounding system and a terrible sounding system (believe me, i've been through my fair share of boxes). but in the right box, they'll be a decent improvement over the kickers
