Just perusing the PMC website, like you do, and happened to take a look at the i range customer comments...

“I thought these sounded fabulous - very musical. In fact I thought all of the speakers they demoed sounded great. Did you notice that the PMC assistants appeared to be the only ones actually moving around to the music.”

Hey, I thought. I made that comment here on this forum! And they didn't give me credit!

Know what? I've scoured this forum looking for that quote and can't find hide nor hair of it. Mr E was on the same thread and I could have sworn it was something to do with Bristol.

Anyway, it does confirm that some manufacturers at least are keeping an eye on this forum.

Would have been nice to get a couple of GB1i's for my trouble though.....

It's amazing who reads these forums, innit? Smile

I'm just trying to work out if that comment is your copyright, since you made it, or ours since we published it.

Re: Quoted by PMC

Perhaps you should be lobbying for some speakers then.....I understand you're a bit of a fan.

Re: Quoted by PMC

Now I presume that magazines and manufacturers have some sort of long-standing agreement whereby they can use reviews and stuff in their literature, but you'd think they'd ask. Or at least send some snacks.

Re: Quoted by PMC

Quoting the source (WHFSV Forum) and my user name would have been nice. The GB1is would have been a bonus.

Note to Mr PMC Marketer: I would settle for a pair of the latest dinky boxes at a push.

Don't mean to be thick....but I haven't got a clue what you're on about.
