what was the raffle he was running claiming to do?
The value was illusory, though, from a larger perspective: in part subsidized by fraud and in part the result of pricing/business strategy that wasn't sufficient to keep the business afloat.There really isn't another company out there that offers the value like they do.
Well that's disappointing. Really hard to imagine that a company can survive a PR bludgeoning like that when it's already on bumpy grounds. Shame really. There really isn't another company out there that offers the value like they do.
I'm curious if this is any way related to the problems at Emotiva. I know that at one point av123 and Emotiva had some sort of relationship...when their forums had some really bizzare activity and a really cryptic message about one of their employees stealing data/not stealing data and is now no longer employed. Happed the other day too.
Weird.
This news coincided with my speaker search, so they are unfortunately off the list now. I've been following the news on avs, audioholics, tweakcityaudio, and av123. As expected, av123 forums have been sanitized pretty quickly. There was one thread that survived for a while where users were exchanging contact info in case the forums were shut down; it was deleted over the weekend. One of the forums where craigsub moderates (he has a business relationship w/ av123 and was going to open Rocket Canada) has a heavily moderated thread, only allowing those legally involved to post.
Given legal costs and the probable influx of order cancellations, it's highly unlikely they will survive this.
I will be expanding my budget and going with Salk I think...
I guess my chances of getting an MFW-15 in the not-so-near future are dwindling.

I'm right there with you.:'( I miss mine so, but ordering one now could mean no warranty now.
