Your most disappointing purchase or audition?

Hi Tubes

I certainly expected that you had some sort of problem and that it wasn't completely fabricated. I had no need to question your initial post nor did I but when the manufacturer of said product went on the record to say it never happened. It is the ONLY reason I responded as you seemed satisfied not to rebut it in your second post. You indicated that this happened when you were "young and naive", maybe decades ago? Or are you still young but less naive? In any case if it happened many moons back it may explain why Ralph doesn't recall it happening. Obviously SOMETHING happened and if you are offering your experiences with a product(s) that are being completely disputed by the offending party wouldn't you want to go on the record to clarify it to everyone reading? Your comments about his business agenda, well Al Marg summed up my sentiments concerning that although you see it differently, fine you're certainly entitled to that conclusion. This is where I detected a bit of "bitter", maybe not?

Yes, I am guilty as charged of being a 3rd party observer however I have no relationship with Atma-sphere in any capacity nor have I owned any of their products but I certainly know folks that own or have with few issues I'm personally aware of and certainly not the recurring problems you encountered with different Atma-sphere products. Yes, I do admire Ralph and value his contributions which more often than not touch on areas beyond endorsing his products in those most subtle ways all but the most astute would take notice. No offense to you intended if any was taken and thank you for your clarification.

"all but the most astute wouldn't take notice" not would.

Tubes108, Hi, I am sorry, I appoligize to you, I did not mean for you to take what I said like that, no, I do not work for atmasphere at all, I just enjoy his post to all of us members, he has helped me a few times with answers to my questions on the threads, Ralph is a likeable member, but you post to me was valid indeed, thus, the appology.

Yes we are all human and mistakes happen. If there was problems with a manufactures unit, I feel they should fix them to a satifactory level. If the unit was bought used of course I would expect a charge if out of warranty. You have every right to be upset if this was not done or fixed.

Jwm,
I think that part of the point that Tubes108 was trying to make was that he was not so much "upset" with Atmasphere, but like everyone else on this thread, was relaying what he considered his most disappointing purchase.
