I am new here as you can see. I have owned multiple Ed subs over the last 2 years and have had to contact them over a couple of small problems I had. I know others have had issues with them in the past. Ben has been an ass to some apparently. That has not been my case. Nothing but positves from them and helpful. Sometimes customer service is a little slower than what I may like. However, they have been great for me to deal with. They build all of the subs themselves now. Parts are made off shore. They have been very open with what happens/ is happening in the company. Maybe they shouldn't. Just because you don't here this happening at JL, DD, or whoever else does not mean its not happening. They just don't tell you about it. Look at your own employer. Boss ever get mad? Piss off a customer? Believe that someone is trying to rip you off after the evidence points to abuse of a product? The owner has been brutally honest about himself, his company, and his product. That's bad? Think Rockford never produced a bad product? Soundstream? I have 10x the stories of bad product and service from just these 2 companies than I have had from all of the others I have used combined. As far as the 19Ov2, I haven't used it, but have used the 16Ov2 (currently using one for HT in a 5cube box tuned to 22hz) and have a 13Ov2 on 600w in my DD and just took out a SQ10 (one of the first produced) that had the glue joint fail between the coil and cone in a tapped horn at 40hz and about 500w. Yeah, my fault I wanted to push the limits on it. It ran like that for a week.
