SSA Now Carrying Mach 5

Aaron, the good guy that he is, is now carrying the two larger units - MJ-18 (4 and 8 Ohm) and MAW-15. He is located in Maryland and pricing on his site includes shipping.

Friends south of 49 can now take advantage of this and not have to worry about duties, handling, etc. Here's the link to Sound Solutions Audio:

J, I will post a shot of the back of the BASH amp here for you to view.

BASH 300 Pictures

Here are a couple of rear shots of the BASH 300 amplifier:

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

MAW-10 Subwoofer Project

YOu have some really nice products. I im looking at a 10" driver and one of your 300watt plate amps.

J, the MAW-10 is a very good driver. I am very pleased with the result of my MAW-10 DIY Subwoofer Project. The Bash-300 would go well with the 10" driver.

Cheers,
Gio.

Your 6.5" Bass-mid shows as out of stock, and indication as to when you might have more?

Hope you might consider second sourcing the Ascendant Audio 6.5".

More will be in this week. Not sure what you mean by "second sourcing" tho...

Hi thanks for your reply, well your 6.5 certainly looks like a nice driver, Fs is high and that is what you want for car applications but a bit too high for a small sealed system, IMO.

Second sourcing? It seems to me based on Zaph's tests that the Ascendant Audio 6.5" is probably the best mid cost driver.
It too has a somewhat high Fs, but other than that looks like a winner.

Second sourcing as I see it would be to get the rights to build it to the same spec, or just get it supplied by whoever made it for Ascendant. Don't know what the situation would be for a design from a company that is no longer in business.

The Extremis is too low on sensitivity IMO and seems to be better suited for use in pairs. Even adding 3 dB to make up for it being 8 ohm, it is still about 3 dB behind your 6.5 and the Ascendant Audio 6.5".

Thanks,
Pete B.

Ah. Well, if you are referring to Ascendant being out of business, they are not. If you are referring to Adire, well...

No, just that they've not been shipping for some time, don't want to start any rumors. Would be good to have more than one source for some of the better drivers.
