Hi Wayne,

In the time it took to reply , you withdrew your post again.
Here was my reply to it

> Doesn't this kind of thing ever get old to you? Do you enjoy acting like this?

Rebutting your feeble nonsense is getting old but the kids are at Gramma’s, Mark has the TEF machine and I am bored.

> You, on the other hand, initially described it only partially - inaccurately - speaking only of the mass and disregarding the suspension. You said nothing of cone geometry and the other things that modify system behavior and prevent it from acting as a pure single pole.

Wayne, go back and read what I said, I describe the spring-controlled region as well as touch on the other effects which come into play well above low cutoff.
What we were discussing was the mass controlled response and the phase shift that goes along with it and what causes it and what you see when you measure it.

> So you merely invented an argument, as you had nothing useful to say. My first post on this thread was to Tom Dawson, and it was a list of links to DSP information. You simpy derailed the thread and nothing more. You were combative because you wanted the attention, and that's all.

The post you were replying to was one that included the very things I continued to press with you.
Why in fact did you insert your self in it if it wasn’t for self puffery?

> It is this very sort of action that has illustrated your real intentions. Your motives are clearly self-promotional, and you engage in all forms of deception towards that aim. You are manipulative, by inventing arguments and derailing useful conversations to promote yourself or your agenda. You are divisive, by misrepresenting issues such as the one about the E-mails. But the thing that is probably most unattractive is your arrogance, which shows in practically everything you write.

My gosh if that isn’t the pot calling the kettle black, you could probably have a bright future in politics if you want.
Deception, heck I am the one saying measure it for your self and see, some deception sheesh.
Hey Wayne, with all your talk about promotion, perhaps it didn’t occur to you that I don’t sell anything here, I have no DIY products, no one here is likely to buy the companies stuff and we already have a good reputation in our industry. What the heck do you think I am promoting here?
You on the other hand obviously have a great deal of interest protecting your image in your own market so why do you engage in these arguments? Why accuse me of bashing you and your products anyway?

> And speaking of the E-Mails, you keep talking about my "sending E-mails to the shop," as if I had sent something to people other than yourself within your little company. The fact is that this comment is another piece of spin - The address used was "tom@servodrive.com" and where this goes is your affair alone.

Spin you say, I would say spin was you trying to make it sound like you didn’t send the e-mails that caused my absence from here.
When you sent your e-mail to me at home, you were sending it to me.
My DIY involvement is not an official part of my job understand, nor do I work at the shop, when you sent them to Tom@servodrive.com, instead, that is at the shop.
Pat at the shop checks all the e-mail and deals with it accordingly, in the process, she read yours and did what she thought was right.
I will get those e-mails Monday fwiw.

> I pulled my last post and re-submitted it to remove the last sentence, which was "I'm not the only person that considers you to be a charletan, so you can give up on this crusade you've had for the last few years."

Name calling, calling me a Charlatan, teasing about spelling and grammar, real nice, it highlights what a “very special” person you are.
Makes me feel like cutting you some slack, you know what I mean?.

> It's another issue entirely, but I can't help but to wonder how you feel about your peers and suppliers beginning to distance themselves from you.

I don’t know, I’ll let you know if it ever happens.

> I wonder what happened to Intersonics,

The focus of the company was on the NASA flight hardware and material sciences.
When NASA hq gave contract authority over our area (containerless processing) to JPL (who was our only competitor) it wasn’t long before the 4.5 M a year flight hardware / research budget went to zero.
The materials side spun off under a new name called Containerless Research Inc, the speaker side was spun off into the hands of a crook from south Africa by the president of Intersonics, then after that disaster Brad took it over and since then we have continued to grow steadily.

> and if it is happening again.

No, Servodrive and Sound Physics Labs are a speaker company first and if I do any more gov’t work, it will be on our terms.

> With your behavior patterns, you certainly can't be gaining any friends.

If you were a problem in our market area, I would have to deal with you differently than here it is true.
Here I can saw what I think and not mince words if I choose.
As long as you and the sock puppets that were around here in your absence, are the only antagonistic people that have to deal with, I am not concerned.

Cheers,

Tom
