I need to comment on the comment some the finish of the Subs.
Emo is experiencing both market segmentation and the effect described by Stuart Kauffman ( MacArthur Fellow and theoretical biologist and member of the Santa Fe Institute) where his N-K model indicated a competent company HAS to ignore 5-8% of their customers because they are OUTSIDE the market segments being served,
If a company listens to the outlier customers then they lose their target market.
The trick is how to know which 5-8% of your customers SHOULD be ignored and which 92-95% should be served.
No company can meet all expectations.
So while Emo listened to people saying the satin finish was not high end and moved to a wood grain finish that may meet one segment but not another - but the Uxx and Xxx products can be separated into different market segments, each with a set of acceptable/desired features.
If you don't like the finish enough to not buy the product that sounds good and is priced right you may not be in the target segment...
If Emo identifies the right segments they wil thrive.
It is very hard to ignore the clamor and identify the visionary customers who will define what the late adopters will buy next... (voice of experience)

I love this thread. I'm so excited about the subs, this is staring into the window of a candy shop that isn't open yet.

I think the terminal's could be improved Actually, the connectors clamp onto the terminals and are very hard to remove. The woven leads are secure, not just floating above things, moving, and possibly eventually separating from movement and wear.

I don't know what a 'regular' shot would mean...that's a head on shot, taken from an angle...no attempt at glamour, just a clean shot. If you let me know what you mean, I will attempt to do it. When dealing with black objects, the lighting is always a challenge, for sure. If you want a brighter lit shot, just say so. I do have a full rear shot I will try to get up in the morning. None of these are edits, just the naked shots. Just trying to put them up to show you what's going on.

Maybe if you could take a pic of it in the little theater ya got going on there, Perhaps next to the ERT's so we can get a better idea of how it looks in a system. That's what I kinda mean of ''regular''

Hi, all. Noob here. So maybe this should go in the Stupid Questions bin, but here it is anyway - how do we hook up the Ultra Sub from some gadget without a dedicated lf/sub output? Is there going to be some sort of crossover we can attach it to? Has anybody noticed that "Genghis" bears a striking resemblance to Tiva? Have the "two" of them ever been seen together?

I imagine the subs will have a "high level" input so you wire them in-line with the main speaker cables.
Welcome!

Of course you can wire them in parallel with the main speakers, but that's not very kind to the amp, and this is Be Kind To Amps Month. Unless that's next month; I forget.
