YEP !! Well I ordered the ultimate 8" sub .....
Elemental only has 2 left ! Bought it just in time !
These subs are NLA ! eD does not make these flat cones anymore.


Thanks to Jon Chiasson at GCA , Ben Milne for the info , and Jeremy at eD !

We need more people in the industry as these individuals !

Cant wait to get this sub and wire it to get the full 750wrms from my ZAPCO AMP !
Once the sub arrives, my e8a (sub only) will be up for sale.

This sub is capable of handling 1000 watts !

Here's a pic of it , compared to my e8a sub.

Not bad considering they are NLA ! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

I thought it's worth it, since it's a very rare sub, now, and I love my e8a ! So this is just like having 2 e8a's in 1 .... [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

What would you rather have ?

The BIG 8 is e8's older sibling... hehe

If I were you I'd keep the e8a's you have..They are in a league of it's own ! [img]graemlins/jammin.gif[/img]

The e8a's will be around still just without the flat cone. They will be releasing there new drivers very soon and will feature a silver metalic cone on the A series.

It's more of a greyish colour. The pictures, for some reason (Ben's crappy lighting skills) look silver.

My lighting skills apparently are about as good as your people skills.

I sense jealousy....
it's an 8 that acts like a 12... Get it ? Got it ? Good. [img]smile.gif[/img]

SwantonRX-7 04-02-2004 08:18 AM

that looks sweet man

JohnnyToronto 04-02-2004 08:26 AM

lol Rob man it doesn't act like a 12 dude.
I'ts just a really big 8 [img]tongue.gif[/img]
It's like saying big spl 12's act like an 18, which they obviously don't. It still is just an 8 inch sub, and a 12" sub of comparable size will definatley get louder, and go lower.

ShockingCanada 04-02-2004 02:52 PM

yeah that is a pretty darn expesnive 8" woofer...epecially since it really isn't even that big...I mean for an 8 it is big but the motor isn't that large on it...if it had a big motor it wouldn't fit through the hole for the 8" basket

Bigmike216 04-02-2004 06:48 PM

why would you want the 8w7 when you can have that thing? That ED is one awesome sub!

soLoRed 04-02-2004 07:12 PM

JL Cant compete agains the eD line of woofers, IMO. And cant compete with the prices... I belive its $600 or so for the 8w7.

Thats not what the people at ED say but I guess you know more than them. :rolleyes: </font>[/QUOTE]Why would ED say JL is better ? Makes no sense ...

Where's Ben ?

soLoRed 04-02-2004 09:11 PM

No clue, maybe for sq? I dont know... Maybe they think so becouse they are still a fresh company
