Please don't repeat libels. George Gleason is an idiot. It's actually one of his favourite companies, Behringer, who ripped off QSC's RMX design wholesale, along with another outfit called Sekaku who sold it as an OEM product to a USA company under the Tapco label. They even used the same component designations.
How do I know ? They sent us a sample too. The first thing it did was blow up ! I despise copiers, regardless of any legal ramifications.
See the first response ..... "C'mon Curious George, don't you understand simple concepts of the Enghlish language and mechanical design ?
"Adopted some techniques" does not mean "copied a design", especially if the item is something as generic as mechanical contruction."
What I did was see a cute way to improve the way the top cover fitted and did something vaguely similar. It doesn't even look the same.
