I am in love with mine. They are a small company & you can expect to wait awhile. Tone wise mine is clear as a bell, bright & "forward" sounding. LOUD! My 2x12 BassBomb is solid as a rock & pretty f-ing cool looking. What you put in is what comes out, very little coloration. I don't know what else you may need in a cabinet but EarCandy is now my favorite brand. There may (or may not) be better sounding cabinets but you'd have to pay twice as much to get one. Feel free to PM me if you have any specific questions.
If you're on the fence get off of it & get yourself some EarCandy!

I have 2 of them. They're OK, but I bought mine when they were selling them unloaded, so I could do some experimenting with different drivers. I've got a 1x12 and a 2x12. I use the 1x12 only for upright. It has an emminence whizzer 12. I also had to put acoustic padding inside, as Earcandy doesn't. It works for me. I don't find them amazing. I did end up selling an Epifani 2x12, and keeping my Earcandy 2x12 loaded a whizzer 12 and B+C neo. That works well slab and EUB on moderate volume gigs. It won't replace (2) 4x10 cabs. Maybe not even one 4x10. It does fit in the trunk of a Honda Civic...
