I believe, according the the GrooveShop and the Accugroove website, Accugroove have cried uncle as they have removed the switch. If it worked and Accugroove could prove it, why would they remove it?

Removed as in no longer installed on AG cabs?

Although I'm looking for some kind of public announcement from AG, that point, while highly circumstantial, is very damning.


As to whether two Accugroove cabinets would work together, that may well be true, but that was not the claim about the Accuswitch. If the switch is in the 8 ohm position, it should (if it worked) allow you to use an Accugroove Cab with an 8ohm Acme cab on a 4 ohm rated amp.

Could this be a semantics issue of some sort on AG's part??

But I follow your logic.

There was no where which said it had to be two Accugroove cabinets.

Another good point.


It's just that I hate to think of the folks at AG as a bunch of snake oil salesmen/women.

I've wanted an AG cab long enough that I'm bitterly disappointed by the possibility that their moral character is strongly in question.

Interaction with TBers in the past by AG has implied/created a trusted/special relationship. Which if the accuswitch is indeed (as it appears) bogus, the relationship has been violated. At least that is the way I see it.

But then I too (I think we all have) have disappointed people who trusted me.

I dunno.

I really hope that AG puts out some sort of announcement/apology about this issue. If they did wrong, it's easier to give someone a second chance when they've addmitted their mistakes as opposed to those who won't.

:hmm:

Invalid Link Removed

AccuGroove responds: “The AccuSwitch was designed to not change the sound when you flip the switch. Hundreds of our cabinets with the AccuSwitch have been in use on nearly every continent for almost two years. With every brand and model of amp on the market there have been no problems or complaints from players using at least one AccuSwitch-equipped cabinet in a multiple-cabinet system who could not use multiple cabinets before. We feel that Bass Player’s results were inconclusive as the amps used in the test would not shut off with a 2O load. Our satisfied customers are proof positive of the validity of our AccuSwitch’s functionality.”

If you read the reply here, only one cab needs to be Accuswitch fitted.

I'm impressed at how many people have managed to use this thread as an excuse to make some form of irrelevant political reference. Good job guys! Here's your cookie:

Oh yeah! well blah blah blah george bush blah blah politicians blah blah hear myself talk blah blah

take that!!!

It's funny that you'd call my post irrelevant. Pointing out issues I have with someone else's post is irrelevant, yet making inane political references that serve no purpose but to make a statement that cannot possibly be replied to constructively isn't. Nice!

I reread this page and have no idea what you're talking about, could you quote a few examples? (and your George Bush comment doesn't count ;) )

I was wondering the same thing, but didnt want to feed the troll....

Out of the 160 odd posts in this thread there might be one or two that made some sort of political reference irrelevantly. Hardly cause of concern, but I guess if you've got nothing else intelligent to say on the subject fo the thread...

I think he's talking about all the religious crap.

I think he has an ax to grind and was just laying about with it indiscriminately.

What he said was totally meaningless to the thread or any dialog whithin.

Plus he definitely referred to George Bush as opposed to Jerry Falwell (or whoever).

I guess we just need to let it go and relax.

:D

Was that religious crap referring to belief in God with no rational evidence, or belief in the Accugroove switch with no rational evidence? :D :hiding:
