T3 Boogie monster pics

Heh, I posted in that thread //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif.

I posted in this one too!

I think T3 products are pretty nice. The one's I've had my hands on at least, which were the TSS's. Two 15" ones to be exact. Not sure how much he paid for them, I forgot, but they are pretty nice. Are taking 1500w each daily and get loud..

Gotta love the customer service //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.

In all seriousness though, I think what happened to JD on these boards before was a bit of a misrepresentation. I'm not sure as I haven't personally purchased anything by T3, but I've emailed JD with a few questions before and he responded helpfully and in a professional manner.

While his business practices may be sketchy as per what's been posted on here, he replies to emails pretty quick //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.

 
That basket is VERYYYYYYYYYYYYYY generic... eclipse used it before anyone, and it has been publicly available THROUGH TC for years, and it will not go away as I am vertain that they sold hte rights, the tooling, and the usage for it while they were going bankrupt...
This was the frame design Thilo did back in late 90's originally. We started using it in 2000 for our HE15's, shortly after Thilo gave exclusive car audio rights to Eclipse. The catch was that we weren't allowed to actively promote our woofers to the car market. Once Eclipse moved on an was no longer working with TC, the frame became public domain for everything. The tooling has been in China for years and was supposed to be exclusive to TC. However, when you don't pay your bills in China, your exclusive rights disappear. Most anyone could purchase the frames from China, but the design patent Thilo owned in the US prevented anyone from selling the drivers in the US without paying royalty. The design patents were sold off in the bankruptcy auction. From my understanding Matt Overpeck (anyone still remember him from audiomobile?) bought the design patents. Regardless, the frames are available, but can't be sold in the US without paying royalty to the holder of the design patent. I believe that patent is a 10 year and was granted on Dec 4, 2001.

FI & Crossfire now own the the patent on that basket!
^^ Ornamental patent 14 years, anybody can buy them all day every day from china...but you simply can't sell them for another 6 years //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif. Not in the US or a US based company.

Just wanted to set that one straight, carry on. :slips out back door:
