Maybe I'm crazy, but I say it's time we take responsibility for our hobby, our love. I for one would be more than willing to send them a very polite e-mail stating my disbelief and disappointment. If you all really feel the same, do not be afraid to do so as well. Heck, maybe they'll see the error of their ways. Whether or not any one of us owns their product our love of this hobby does pay their salaries and feeds their children, maybe it's about time we let them know that to treat one of us unfairly is to disrespect all of us. We do deserve more, we put our trust in them, we shout our praises gladly and easily. Some on this site give their emotion for a company so fiercely as to condemn the feelings and opinions of people they do not even know. Yet given the chance to show their appreciation or loyalty to those that swear by their name, and what do they do, brush us off? No, not anymore, we are not sheep to be herded! We are the lifeblood of this industry, if we do not stand up and try to make a difference can you really blame them for doing anything other than trying railroad us into "new, cutting-edge technology" at prices so exorbanent that quite possibly those that we love and that love us sometimes get less. Anyways, give the e-mail address and I'd like to respond, maybe a little less dramatically, but just as strongly! What's the worst that can happen, they'll ignore me? Sounds like they're already doing that.
Congrats Evo! It's nice to know that Synergistic does care about their customers. Whether or not $1000.00 is too much it is far better than 75% of the cables cost. You know what, maybe it was just a mistake. I, too, thank you for starting this thread. It is nice to see company and customer working together towards a common goal. Good luck in your endeavor.
