(n/m) - rojoloco (VA Beach) 10:03:50 04/27/12 funny thing is, they should be WAY cheaper in price if - LJZTT 13:13:28 04/27/12 it feels great that the site is educating ppl - jzx 15:41:14 04/27/12 There is a reason they look like Powertrix equipment. - rojoloco (VA Beach) 09:15:19 04/27/12 Disagree. AMS is made for cheapskates, not for enthusiasts. - Aqualung 10:14:48 04/27/12 I agree, Charles has the best Chinese parts. - Multi_Read (MO) 10:31:55 04/27/12 You are wrong. Nothing of his is made in China. (n/m) - rojoloco (VA Beach) 10:57:17 04/27/12 Where is it made? (n/m) - Multi_Read (MO) 11:13:55 04/27/12 I'd like to know as well. Or are we just assuming like usual (n/m) - gnozahs 18:11:17 04/27/12 Assuming like usual. Par for the course. (n/m) - jschrauwen 19:25:07 04/27/12 You are assuming I am assuming. I know with certainty. - rojoloco (VA Beach) 20:45:36 04/27/12 sold by a god? - aliaZ 00:17:16 04/28/12 Not at all. SPL is quality stuff. - rojoloco (VA Beach) 09:59:14 04/28/12 ah ok - aliaZ 10:54:00 04/28/12 Same source maybe, but SPL had them built to their own spec. (n/m) - Guapo 14:16:16 04/28/12 Same with Powertrix. - rojoloco (VA Beach) 21:52:34 04/28/12 If you're going to copy, might as well copy from the best. (n/m) - Guapo 10:20:59 04/29/12 Which is what we see in AMS choosing to copy Powertrix. (n/m) - rojoloco (VA Beach) 12:26:00 04/29/12 Fine with me if you put Ptrix on the same level as AMS (n/m) - Guapo 19:43:15 04/29/12 You seem to think Powertrix copied SPL. - rojoloco (VA Beach) 05:40:30 04/30/12 SPL has always been top quality. Not so much PT. - Guapo 09:37:07 04/30/12 To be honest, PT was higher than SPL is many regards. - rojoloco (VA Beach) 12:03:51 04/30/12 Uh, yeah right. If you say so ... (n/m) - Guapo 14:44:31 04/30/12 Travis. You're simply not correct in your assumptions. (n/m) - Bernie (NoVA) 15:38:39 04/30/12 I'll admit there is room for error in some of SPL's history. - rojoloco (VA Beach) 19:47:33 04/30/12 I for one am glad that you're posting the question rather - PiotrC70 09:17:44 04/27/12 Agreed.
