Would anyone show me an Ed sub in person?

[ChunkyDark]

At first I discounted eD because of the truck bed liner finish, but recently have read people saying to looks much better in person.
I live in the Quad Cities and would like to see what their subs look like first hand.
If anyone nearby could help me out I'd really appreciate it

And if your asking yourself WTF is the Quad cities, then you live too far away

Thanks all!

If you don't like their textured finish, they just came out with a matte finish.

I know where the Quad Cities are, and I still live too far away! Seriously, you should at least be willing to drive to Chi-town, St. Louis, KC or Minneapolis... Scratch that. At current gas prices, you could just order one yourself.

Hopefully, you weren't flooded too badly back in the spring up there, Chunky.

textured finish looks fine, but try dusting it and youll end up with sponge/paper bits everywhere.

sounds alright though i guess.

I almost got to tour the facilities. We were going to be driving by on the way to Minneapolis, but then our fall vacation ended up scheduled in Chi-town for Wired nextfest. Don't get me wrong I'm pumped out nextfest, but if I could have gotten to see the facilities while on vacation that would have been way cool

Glock, I saw they started offering the matte black, but the 100 upcharge pushes it out of my price range. I've thought about ordering one completely unfinished, but the last thing I need right now is another project.

As far as flooding goes we got hit hard by a storm on Mothers day and have been living with my folks since. The really big storm knocked out 6 trees and put us another month behind in our rebuilding. All things considered we've been really lucky compared to some others.

I had actually just gotten my 5.0 system up and running when this all happened. I was forced to watch those beautiful olympics on a 23" TV with no surround

I come here to live vicariously through you all

Didn't Andrew tour ED? Maybe he can chime in.

Swiffer duster. It works quite well. As long as it is not a rough sandpaper type finish, it will work great.

 

[GlocksRock]

just use a can of compressed air to dust it.

If your playing it right it shouldn't be collecting dust

If it is vibrating that much, the cabinet is not constructed very well.
