Hi from Seattle!

[Twizzstyle]

I originally posted on this forum, complaining about how I got frauded by www.diyproaudio.com , and wondering if anybody else had aswell.

But after looking around, I see this forum has a lot to offer! I would call myself an audio enthusiast, but certainly not a very audio-educated one by any means!

I'm currently a sophomore attending the University of Washington, to major in Aeronautical Engineering.

But I've always loved audio stuff. I have a few keyboards, including a really cool Yamaha DX100 from back in the day. An old Hammond organ, and bunches of guitars. I built a homemade talkbox, and I am now planning to build an electric guitar from scratch within the next month or so. A friend has purchased a book explaining how to build a pickup winder from old sewing machine parts!

I'm also very interested in car audio, I drive a 1998 Subaru Impreza, and am in a few Subaru clubs. Currently I have a Subaru Legacy GT cd player in it, with Kenwood speakers all around, two MTX 10in subs in a big bandpass box with 200 watts each.

I ordered a speaker kit over a month ago and haven't heard anything from them or received any replys to my numerous emails. They charged my credit card, so I know they got the order. I did receive an almost immediate response when I pretended to be a new potential buyer which spells scam to me. DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS SITE!!!
If any one has any dealings with this site, I'd like to hear about them.

Joe,

If you used a CC, i would immediatly contact your CC company. They can put a huge amount of pressure on a vendor, and if they are indeed fraudulent, get put out of business.

Yeah, I ordered from them back in September, and at first heard right back from them. Its especially annoying to hear that they are still scamming people. I filed a complaint with the FBI's Internet Fraud Complaint Center, but I'm not sure how much good that will do.
