Posted June 14, 201312 yr Kevin just posted it on the Skar Facebook "Who would be interested in a 4" Coil, 12/15/18" SPL Monster woofer? 2500 Watt RMS Power Rating (Conservative). A little side project prototype I am currently working on - if there is enough demand I will probably put them into production, I personally love the idea of making them - 6 Layer Spider- High Roll Competition Grad Foam Surround- Ultra Strong Paper Cone- 20mm Top and Back Plate- 4 PC Ferrite Magnet Motor Assembly (220mm)- Qts 0.52" I cant get over how Familiar this looks to a new sub woofer coming out from another company...
June 14, 201312 yr im gonna start a company that copies skars subs seems how he copies sundowns sub and that why ill win too !
June 14, 201312 yr Author Jacob said the basket is different, but yeah the softparts look the sameYeah thats the only difference I noticed, its hard to match spec numbers because well we all know where Kevins come from.
June 14, 201312 yr Author Sundown just posted on facebook "Based on some recent inquiries and events I feel the need to state this officially -- we DO NOT do OEM work for Skar Audio anymore. We have done almost no work for Skar since the first generation IVX and VVX line. We have nothing to do with the new line products whatsoever. There seems to be some confusion floating around out there; so I am putting it to rest." "I feel that all of the hatred online is very exaggerated... but I am not very happy this morning." " Parts suppliers are not always out to protect those that pay for tooling. I'll leave it at that." Edited June 14, 201312 yr by DanP
June 14, 201312 yr Probably from the same factory in China. China will copy anything for the right price.Of course he uses the same buildhouse.
June 14, 201312 yr This actually really pisses me off, cause sundown is a great company. They don't deserve this kinda BS.
June 14, 201312 yr comments made from jacob on face book Jacob Fuller Ifthere is a legal case to be made at any point with any individual orcompany regarding our frames it'll be made if necessary as I did not payfor tooling and patents for nothing; loudspeaker frame patents areornamental patents which have much differentlaw than functional patents -- and it's very subjective. If someoneused our mold and made our frame it's very cut and dry; if a new mold ismade that is very similar it's more complicated and subjective inornamental patents. Jacob Fuller Thereare some people in the world who like to fully investigate facts andhave civil discussions before filing law-suits. I simply made a posttoday stating that we don't do OEM for Skar anymore -- you can take thathow you will. Jacob Fuller As a note I won't participate in this discussion any further. mark this neg too you ass eater
June 14, 201312 yr skar rebut i have decided to put this project on hold due to the similarities someare referencing as I would rather re-tool the basket than have peopleoffended for the wrong reasons, regardless of the fact we already spent agreat sum on this design. We are still very eager to launch the line and know you all will love it when we do Itis more important for us to offer our customers unique designs and wewill repost more information on this new line in a month or so once anew design is drawn up
