Avatar 212, Did I get a Lemon?

This morning there was a thread in the amps forum by a guy with an Avatar 212 who was having a problem because the cabinet was farting out. He thought that maybe he got a lemon. I've done a search on:

The thread doesn't come up on any of these searches. What in the heck happened to it. If anybody can come up with a link to this thread from this morning, that would be great. I'm curious to see how it came out.

I never saw the thread but a site: search via google found what I think is the thread. Looks like it was deleted or moved.

At the bottom of page one n possibly page 2.

Just for a goof I went to the Avatar website to look at the 212's. The 212 Neo is, indeed, rated at 500 watts. It is the regular magnet 212 which is rated at 1000 watts. But I can't remember which cabinet the original poster in this mornings thread was complaining about. And since somebody took it upon themselves to delete his thread, we may never know. Maybe he will re-post his information in this thread before it gets deleted.

By Jove, I think it's gone!!

I posted in that thread and now, searching through my posts, it's gone too.

JB696...Was that you who wrote the tongue in cheek post in that thread regarding underpowering, and lucky nobody got hurt by flying bits of something?
There were a couple members who apparently missed that that post was facetious, and I pointed it out to them.

Anyway, looks like it's all gone bye-bye. Wonder why?

Does anyone remember which cabinet was farting out? Was it the regular one or the Neo. Are the Neo speakers more prone to farting? I hope not, as I just ordered a GK Neo cabinet. I sure hope I don't get stuck with a cabinet that farts, just to save a few pounds.

thanks

thank gods for the mods. Imagine sports without referees, umpires etc. Devolves into name calling, followed by tribal warfare.

the thread was deleted because the original poster was a previously banned (2x) user coming back under another nickname. the dude was likely full of crap, in the process.

if you want to discuss this topic, you're welcome to start another thread, minus the trolling.
