DDM3 Protest Results

yes chris, but do you think its going to matter to a consumer if it says 2400w or 2700w? NO! its over 2000w so what do they care? but the one who do benefit from wer the competitors and i'll bet money that they seena nice jump in sales on a fairly expensive amp because of this small 300w difference.

I remember that post as well, and this line pops out a bit.

The M3 is a very tough amp, it makes all of it's 2700W rated power and more.

How many amps do you think where sold to competitors vs. consumers? 3 peoople ran them last year in 0-600 that I know of maybe a couple more. Ah crap who cares....this has turned into you and I going back and forth about the M3. The point should be to not have this happen again. You still haven't put up any suggestions as to how to help with that. Other than to not run questionable amps... to a point I agree... the veteran competitors probably have a better idea what amps could be questionable but what about the newbies that come on here asking what amp they should get and everyone in the for sale section says "these amps are the ones to have". Again I say give them a list to look at that is ok'd by USACI and WON'T CHANGE. Then they know they are buying a legit amp with no future issues.

If an amp is in question, that is new, I feel it should be tested and rated before use. This would help in stopping this from happening every year.

Thoughts ?

I personally will not buy or suggest any use amps that are not rated by usaci. It just isn't worth this crap. I'm sure Cactus is happy...the top amp in the class has now been knocked off....hmmm wonder what the next best amp will be??? Cactus? Fly in just under the limit and be "the amp to have".

i never said they made a killing off of these amps, i just said ill bet the sales went up after the rerating. and i dont see a newbie coming on here and buying whatever amp i tell him to cause he's going to get 20 different answers to that question. he will do some research and buy what he thinks is the best amp. now he may not be an engineer, but ill bet he asks someone with experience before he spends $1000 on anything! so call it an educated buy for him, but i'd be willing to put money on it that he knows it may not pass if tested. just my opinion.

I am sure this is why he is sending his amps in to be rated first, before posting there rateings.

Smart for an manufacture that is new and joins an org, if you ask me.

Im betting Cactus gets a few wanting to test it already or protest it one. Since the comment that was made earlier last month about a phone call that was made to a compeditor.

I actually had all this info when I heard the amp was going to be possibley protested. I am only shareing now since there is the arguement over the legitimess of the amp in question.
