I went to www.caraudio.com and didn't see anything for eD speakers. And why do you call them eDuh? Just making a funny, or did they do something?

eDuh is what everyone calls them... they were one of the worst companies to deal with before they got their act together. lots stuff not getting shipped.. QC probs etc.

But some of my friends have gotten some subs from them and they were very wowed. Also, they have some picture galleries there, so you can see what kind of rides these speakers are being put into.

Also, on top of being relatively VERY inexpensive, they are also relatively compact, making them much easier to fit under your seats. My current subs (pulled out of my old car) are way too big to fit under the rear seat, but I can get essentially the same power out of eD's speakers for much less price, and a much shallower speaker (making it easier to cram more sound under the seats).

Finally (at risk of sounding like a salesman for eD), their customer service is amazing. They can custom-build boxes for you, but they are located in Iowa and don't want to waste your money in shipping them if you live far away (but I'm sure they would if you asked them nicely and were willing to cover whatever the shipping costs were). I asked them some spec questions (i.e., how much space I should leave behind the magnet if I were to build my box myself, as well as how much room for air flow/vibration I should leave in front of the speaker). They responded to me same-day, and were very polite and knowledgeable. I plan to buy my next set of subs from them (and hopefully I'll get to do that soon!).
x2. I'll be ordering my 11kv.2 speakers in May and installing them the day i get back from school in June. I cannot wait.

Yeah, I think I'm going with the 13Kv.2's. First, I need to find somewhere to get my rear seat lifted. I know LMI Welding makes one, but they want to charge me $125. I can get a standard box (which comes with this exact seat lift) from www.supercrewsound.com for like $129. Not to jack this thread, but anyone know where I can get a cheaper rear seat lift kit for a 1999 F150 X-cab?
