Well, the original story came from ED, so I'm sure Alex knows, or will find out really soon.
I think this should be interesting to watch unfold. I just hope, in the end, the truth wins out.
Trust me, I know.
I answered the phone when the top guy from JL called.
We arent worried about anything.
They are going off of assumptions from original prototype drivers, well not assumptions, but the only information that we released at the time.
The first picture shown with the silver basket was our home theater driver the LFR. Totally different motor topology than what the 13Av.2 is.
Its being worked out. And if we are in the wrong, like Ben said. we will change it.
But their major concern was that the basket has a direct gap over the top plate, which the prototypes do have.
The production version actually has an aluminum radiator plate.

wow big deal, it looks the same. Let's get our panties in a bunch and be fags! Some peoples internet privelages should be taken away.
If youre spending that much on a sub based on how good it sounds, or loud it gets... who cares how the basket looks anyways? or is there something functional to that design?
Im no ones speaker guru... just my $.02

Yes it did have something to do with the design...either way....blown out of porportion...
The pictures shown are from prototypes, the production version is a black basket and motor that looks completely different.
We are working it out with them.
If we need to change it, no big deal.
Its not the same basket, same size, or have any of the same measurements. When it was being designed, no one had a picture of a W7 up, or one here.

there just pissed because Elemental designed something WAY better than the W7. thats my take on it
There's a lot of hate in the car audio world towards eD. Personally, I love my 13Ov.2

We never claimed this was better than a W7 ever, its honestly a different speakers.
Comments like this are what start rumors. We will wait until the speaker gets released and people get to listen to it.
