At least they are getting rid of those flat cones on some models.

The new Av.2 may use a similar/same basket but that is about it.

A company doesn't redesign the back of the cone for only a handfull of cases. Granted it is an excellent speaker but enough had problems with them for me to go with RE.
I believe ED is a great company but I was dissapointed in the E15a.

I'm pretty sure it was a supply problem more than anything that changed the design, or maybe that's just what they said?
Anyways the 15av2 only has like 31mm xmax, so I really wouldn't consider it that much as competition. RE's new sub has 4.5" p2p (IIRC)(56mm one-way) suspension travel as well.

To restate, it is a great sounding/performing speaker but for those that wanted a sub even better than the e15sp for comps, in some respect it was, but I feel many were let down. Including myself.
And the redesing was not because of part availability, they added an aluminum backing to the cone's rear to combat the breaking joint problem.
The abandon of the flat cone altogether was because of part availability.
