Well, that does have a nice conspiracy-theory ring to it, I have to admit...

My comment would be that Larry may be disorganized, but he isn't stupid!

Larry is stupid if he believes that his next product will presell like hotcakes here, and that's even IF he delivers all the Diablos.

My thinking was along conspiracy lines when the idea hit me, but the way Nate dissects it- it seems more like a no-brainer. Especially since Larry didn't return your e-mails- you'd think he'd be a little bit concerned about a wayward amp that should've been in a waiting customer's hands like NickKnutson,for example. And Duncan, granting permission to give it a full review, essentially turning the amp into a used or demo model. It's no coincedence.

Unfortunately, something's not right! Here we are, Thursday already (tomorrow will be a full week) since according to Larry (via Duncan) he'd ship out the remainder of all US amps. I've only seen one person report receipt of an amp during this time, and that amp was shipped out earlier then this timespan. So, why aren't we receiving our amps?

There really needs to be a shipping list and/or confirmation that amps were shipped. Tracking numbers?

Butthink abt it if he did wnat skylab to review it he should have been extremely confident as he would know after what has happended sky lab would rip him apart in the review if he had a bad product ,,could be he has a lil wonder and he is dead confident so thats why he did send it to sky(assuming though lol).Because if it was bad and a negative review from skylab would have half his cuosmters aksing for a refund right away wiht out even listenin lol.


So the good thing is we just might have a portable master piece around lol....

No doubt about that - I have lots of reasons NOT to like the Diablo, based on my awful ordeal.

Hint about review: very good, but not world-beating sound. World-beating industrial design design, and excellent features.

He may regret doing that if Larry decides to change his phone number and then even Duncan won't be able to get in touch with him. Bad idea in my book.

That constitutes buzz, Mr. Maher?

It appears that Larry asked Duncan to post not only his phone number, but his address as well (which he has done in the ipast forum). Larry even suggesed that anyone who cares to, may stop by the shop to view the status of things for themselves.

I wonder if anyone will take him up on this?
