What are you talking about? Image Dynamics and RE ARE brand names.
Just because you can't get it at Wal-Mart or Best Buy doesn't mean its not brand name.
That being said, I vote ID and RE all the way. High end quality products. The ability to buy local would be awesome. It's all about marketing. Get it out there and the shit will fly off the shelf.
I forgot Cerwin Vega existed.. heh
