Hi Bob, thanks for keeping us appraised of the latest news. I can think of no one more deserving, in audio, to reap the rewards of prosperity as the result of your fertile mind and ongoing curiosity and research. Hope this happens sooner rather than later. Can't wait to hear about the "new development". Perhaps I've fallen victim to Pavlov's syndrome of rising expectations as I've found your products nothing short of stunning. Keep swingin' for the fences!

Does that mean if somehow (yes... it will be a bit of a miracle) I can manage to get the guys to complete the speakers we have in process for you, that we should just put them up for sale? This sucks as I'll bet anything that once those knuckleheads hear that there will be money in it for them, one or the other or both will manage to find time to work on them. I wish that weren't the case, but I can't make them or anybody do anything... unless they want to. It's no different for anybody else... if your employer can't/won't pay you... you don't do any more work for them. As I said, all except for the legal filling thereof, we are bankrupt. If you end up seeing a pair of red cherry C2.5s with maple veneer on the sides up on Audiogon or AC... don't come running back to me saying that now you want your speakers. By then I will have made the deal with them and that they would get the money out of the sale. Just let me know and that's what I'll do. As it is, my original commitment of never giving up and trying to get them to you stands. But... if you say otherwise I will take your e-mail as evidence to the fact that you have abandoned any interest that you have in receiving the speakers and/or payment for services rendered. Just understand that this is not by my choice, but rather yours and that you freely acknowledge so. Quite frankly though, I don't quite understand why you would do that. As it is you have nothing more to loose and there still remains a (albeit, a potentially longer-term than preferred) chance/hope that you will eventually get them. Maybe it's not actually about the speakers though. Maybe you feel like a fool and want/need somebody to point the finger at and blame? If so, I'm sorry that that may be the case. As for me, I learned a long time ago that pride is usually an expensive commodity, that in the end I really can't afford. Oh... no worries. I never expected you to make excuses for me. Everybody has known to one degree or the other that we have had funding issues for a long time. Also as I said previously, everybody understands when a business goes bankrupt. It happens all of the time - especially these days in this economy. If anybody doubts the fact, have them try calling the phone number - it's been disconnected - can't pay the bill. While you're at it, feel free to share any of my e-mails so they can clearly see what a jerk I've been and how all along, my only intent was to deceive you and take advantage of you. Trust me, I have nothing to hide or be ashamed of. In fact, if I'm ever questioned by anyone I will be glad to forward copies of all our e-mails. That way they will clearly see that all I ever did was the best I could based on the circumstances and that I went by what I believed at the time to be valid information. They will also see that it wasn't I that closed the door - but rather you. So... unless I hear otherwise from you... I guess that's it. Don't feel too bad as you're not alone. Huh... Karsten's lost about $250K another Danish guy $20K, another $17K and me $15K - and that's just the investors. Looks like SP Tech didn't discriminate. Take your time though and think about it. I won't say anything to Tim or Jason until I hear back from you. Once the deal is done with them though... it's done. I'm sorry you feel this way though and if it were possible for me to make things right... I would do it in a heartbeat.

That was after 2 years of waiting listening to your half baked excuses.
