Pretty close with the guy, he's not a Diamond employee though, just a marketing rep. I didn't think to ask him because I wasn't expecting for Diamond to go out of business... I just had the store owner special order a sub for a customer of mine last friday

Reps have more reason to push products than employees do. Reps pay is commission. Employees are salary. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

are they following in the footsteps of esoteric?

They're still in the cable business //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

So what do you AZ people do to make manufacturers go under? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

So much for their Lifetime warranties.

Someone needs to continue selling the TDX tech subs, the creme of what the company has offered over the years.

thats good to hear... well i think i have come to the conclusion that the diamond cm312d2 subs that i have are crap, they sound awesome until the bass drum hits or it hits at a higher bass note with a lot of punch to it, then they ping/bottom out or something and sound terrible.
