I didn't know Orion had a Concept line, but yea, I was referring to the brand Concept.

I agree w/ KiKi, put Elevation Audio in highly recommended. everything I've done w/ them so far has been amazing. If I have any problems or anything with them, where they should be dropped a level, I'll let ya know.

[GlassWolf]

yeah look on ebay for a "concept 97.2" EQ.
it's an Orion DEQ30 in silver finish. retailed for $1,700
pure digital 30=30 band 1/3 octave EQ. nice product.

Anyone want to pick some of the brands out and sort? I'm not asking for a huge list, just pick and choose :)

[f-onefifty]

this list is total bullchit but i'll say definitely take ed subs out of questionable into good, and put their amps into highly recommended because those things are real real nice and at a pretty good price. :excited:

[GlassWolf]

f-onefifty, that list represents a lot of time and effort. if you don't like it, that's fine. calling the entire thing bullshit is rude. I realize you have eD amplifiers so you have a personal stake in this. That list represents around 20 years or more of combined experience, and half of that is professional industry experience not backyard DIY garage "installer" experience from people who've installed all of about 2 or 3 systems in their lives.

as for eD, their amps are good, since they're made for the company by someone else. Their customer service is total crap which is why their subs are questionable. they fall apart and eD dicks people around about covering the poor construction under warranty. when they can improve customer service, they might get moved to the good catagory. reliability is at least as important as performance in that list.
