We’ve been quite busy as of late getting the final stages done in some upgrades and custom work within the eD[c]inema speaker lineup.
First up is the finish options:
Standard finish compared to the Matte Finish. Our standard option is a light texture finish similar to that used on our subwoofers while the matte finish is an optional upgrade. This is the same finish used on our A6, DL, and EL series products.
Standard Finish on the left and the Matte finish on the right. Take note of the pretty extensive bracing being used.

Once again, Standard finish on the Left and Matte Finish on the Right.

The matte finish is for those who require a slightly higher WAF finish. For those looking to have the best, we also offer all eD[c]inema series speakers in gloss black.
Interesting request came through for some of the eD[c]6 bookshelf speakers to be installed into an angled cabinet. A few teaser pictures as these are headed into paint.

Once completed and on the website, these will be known as the eD[c]6 Slant and sold in pairs much like the standard eD[c]6.
Second up would be the compression driver upgrade option:
Many ask this question, “What is the difference and is it for me?”
The main difference is the smoothness of the driver and a gain in detail as you step up to the DE250. Both are highly efficient and very detailed, as you put power to them the difference starts to stand out a bit more. The DE250 just feels a bit more relaxed in the reproduction, for those that are going to be pushing up the SPL this is definitely an option to consider. Some will view the stock compression driver to be a bit more aggressive at higher SPL levels.
Please note, we can upgrade any component in these speakers. It generally is then considered a custom project as we will have to go through with a custom crossover network designed via LMS testing on the actual unit as well. If you wanted a Horn Body change and a larger cabinet to fit a pair of 15″ drivers, we can do it. It is one of the beautiful things of doing these things in house; you want it, we can build it.
Third is the inclusion into the package builder:
If you are looking to do the eD[c] lineup in the package builder, they are now active. If you would like to do the upgraded compression driver please just give us a call as we have to add that to the order manually at this time.
Upbeat in the Shop:
All in all I know everyone here is extremely excited about this lineup and we are working through to get all existing orders headed out as quickly as we can. The paint booth has been full of eD[c] Cabinets coming through with both the standard finish and the Matte finish.


Have a Great Weekend!
