Ummm.... No.... It is made at 12 different build houses and it new designs just travel around China that fast !!

Really, yes.. They all came from the same build house and there are a few more that are getting the same design..

Well, here... Check out SPL Dynamics new SPL subwoofers....
http://www.spldynamics.fi/

SPL dynamics has been using the same shit as everyone for years.

IIRC, their old amps were the same board as all the other zenon amps and the DD amps.

Everybody copies everybody. Now it's just down to who has the best price.

American Bass uses the same amps as SPL Dynamics and Digital Designs!

And Bob at American Bass went to them first followed by SPL Dynamics and then Digital Designs!! So, I guess that DD did the sub first, then AQ picked up the same design with out the cooling like they did before and went to China. So, on the subs, I guess it was DD's turn to go first.

Audioque is a part of DD, in case you were unaware.

Now according to the head (Engineer) "Guy" at Zapco. They used an Italian company to do the engineering on the subs and they spent 5 years on the design. And after several thousands of dollars. Here is the best SPL driver in the world.

No..... DJ is Jessa's Dad. They are located in two different places. They are like Pontiac and Chevorlet.... Same but different..

well then he must be working for aq too.... lets face it man if they engineered it from the ground up, aq's sub wouldnt look identical to it, unless the chinese sold the design to the aq guys which is very possible

Anytime any one goes to China with a new design, it gets *****d out really fast! And some times the bigger company gets what the smaller company designed and the smaller company gets shit on! In this case, I guess everybody gets a turn !!
