I think they are a great product for the price but i do have my allegiances... and it's not with ED. I tend to keep quiet about my prefered amp manufacturer because i think there is a prejudice against people that like tube amps... i get the impression that most people think that we assume our gear is the best becasue it's 'tube'. I am actually the same way about my car, i never drop the type of car i have either because of the stereotypes and prejudices surrounded by them. I just like what i like and thats it :-)
    hehe - there's nothing wrong with tubes. Especially butlers...

    I've run into quite a few folks that have the attitudes that you talk about, especially about the car. Heck, there was a guy on here not too long ago that decided he wanted to get into it...funny, haven't seen him since.

    Bah - doesn't make any difference. We all have our experiences and we all like what we like for a reason. One of these days I'll have to get my hands on some eD stuff.

    I've been thinking that I'd go with e6000v.2 components for my speakers, does anyone have any experience with this?

    Also, from the help I've gotten on the eD forum as well as through email, I'd say the company has gotten their act together. It's been a great experience talking with them about which components would fit my style. As for the pricing, I won't be purchasing until around March, so hopefully they'll have another special running around then. Thanks for the input, I'd just like a little more on the component speakers (e6000v.2)

    if u can find CDTs go with them. cause eDi = rebadged CDTs. that's another reason not to go with eD, design theft.

    why wouldn't you go xith rebadge if that saves you money?.... doesn't makes sense.... If you can buy the same product for less money, why should you pay extra....

    if he wants to just save money i guess.

    but eD dispute aside, i never liked the way CDT's/eD sounds, i cant put my finger on it but something didnt sound right.
