Did both these companies go down under?

Both sites don't work.. It would be a shame?

The matrix Elite was a great driver

Oz has been gone for 2-3 yrs now... and with the crap they have been slinging the last 2-3 they were in business makes it no real loss... they went waaaay downhill...

ID has lost 1 person not the whole company... get it right...

As your link explains, ID is not out of business. Eric Stevens left, and ID wont probably ever be the same after that, but they still have most of their old product lines, and they will stay current at least for a while.

actually it was 2, and imo they made up a majority of the company. Eric Stevens, pres and Matt Borgardt tech they bled ID.

What has Arc really done in the past few years besides create an ultra expensive SE line? Maybe I just don't pay enough attention to them and missed something, but hasn't their stuff been basically the same for a while now?

I guess the site is back up...

But from what i hear, everyone left the company at ID. The staff, Eric.... So it will not be the same anymore...

New XDi line of amps, New KS600.2, KS1200.1 KAR amps, New black series subs/components, a new crazy processor soon(PS8) & other stuff I cannot say..... Arc is a company that releases products when they work, sound good & it is reliable. They don't have the need to re-badge a existing product just to change cosmetics or yearly....

Eric will land back on his feet & will do well. I sure will miss ID as we know it, but just look out for whatever Eric touches...
