I just called Ascendant Audio and they are shipping the Arsenals right now. I actually decided to go with 1 Arsenal 12 sealed instead of 2. They have awesome customer service. Called me right back and told me that i was being refunded. The wait is over...

I think it whould be a good idea to make a Arsenal thread and share our installs and stories. Seems like a group of us took advantage of the preorder. Make sure you post pics. Im going to start a Arsenal Thread for everyone once i get mine.

If you go with 2 15's then put them in a sealed box at 4-5cuft. The bigger the box the lower the subs will get. If you go with 4 cuft net then you will have more top end bass and alot of low end aswell. I whould do about 2.2cuft net for each chamber.

I whould recommend sealed at 2.0-2.5 cuft net with a pound or more of polyfill stuffed inside. That will sound great with rap and reggaton. Trust me.

Are you eventually going to go with 2 Arsenal 15's or just one ?

I ordered a 15 and I am selling my L7 and grill tomorrow and ordering another 15 to be pushed by an orion 2500d. I thought I was going to piss my pants when I saw that it would be here tomorrow, never gotten an item that quick. It is going to be a little while till I get everything in because I need to go ahead and install my alarm (can't have everything stolen a 3rd time) but keep me posted on how it sounds.

GPSE: I got mine delivered to my girlfriends appartments. I knew I wouldn't be home and I knew if she wasn't they would leave it at the office.

OK, without a pic it will be hard to describe what I am going to do but I have a "cubby hole" on the back right side of my Jeep and I want to stick with AA but I want STRICT SQ. I am going to have the 15's but I also want to be able to cruise with my girl, have bass, and not kill our ears. would a 10" assassin or a 10" arsenal sound better? Thanks guys
