There is a company that makes small outdoor speakers. The company is called SoundScape, Inc.
A lawyer for the company recently asked us to cease using the name SoundScape for our SoundScape models or he would file a trademark infringement case against us. We did some investigation and found a few reasons that it might be possible to win a case of trademark infringement if they filed (which they indicated they would if we did not change the name). We talked to one entity that successfully defended itself. But the owner indicated that it cost him over $10,000 in legal fees and he didn't think it was worth it.
Most of the time you see talk of these models on audio sites, they are referred to as SS8's or SS10's or SS12's. So we thought the easiest thing to do would be to changed the name of the speaker series to "SS"...new name, same old SoundScape speakers.
We'll be working on the changes to our web site in the next week or so.
Just thought you'd like to know.
