He's responding to my post. I never played Bob as a victim; he always lands on his feet and I'm sure got paid. I meant maybe he gave up some intellectual property and then saw that his product was not a good fit for the Emotiva business model. Maybe his designs are already being copied in China. It's all speculation, and anyway he's selling a tube amp right now on ebay which is his hobby.
And then there's the issue of him retiring with a new wife, he's not a victim.
