12" AA Arsenal vs. 12" AA Avalanche

[maldecido33 10+ year member]

Can't decide which sub to get. Both would go in a 1.75 (after sub/port displacement) enclosure, properly tuned. I can feed either whatever amount of power needed. Which one is gonna satisfy more more SQL wise, leaning a SLIGHT bit to the SQ side.

Also, what should the Fb of each enclosure be per sub, and how much power should I feed each sub? And, anyone have a link to the T/S of the avalanche. Namely, it's mounting depth.

Thanks alot.

ascendant audio says the arsenal is better and get louder with less power

yea, i've read that, but don't value that TOO awfully much. of course they'd rather say the arsenal is better; that's what they get sales from, not the avas.

i'm looking more for real-world experience/knowledge.

I'd like to know as well. So far, nobody's made a comparison.

I'd say that too if I wanted people to buy products from my new line-up //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif
