ABt is an AMX dealer even though its not ontheir
website.

ANd anyone who thinks George wouldnt put Crestron
in there in a heartbeat if the chance arose is
kidding themselves.

Manufacturers want to be in that store. They
are without a doubt the second best Showroom in
the Chicagoland area. ;)

They're the what, nations largest single location Panasoic outlet, Maytag, blah blah blah. They do exactly what the manufactures want, move boxes.

And since Ernie won't keep count, I will. Hes up to 249, and counting.

I don't doubt your business sense, but you gave the reason not to in your message; Crestron does not want to share the show with AMX. For that and other reasons I don't think it will happen. There is a very short list of brands that don't want to be in ABT.

I understand that Crestron does not want to be in there WIth AMX... I should of said they would Replace AMX in a heartbeat if they had the opertunity.

As far as how they do with it.... I've never really gotten any hard numbers out of my rep..... But I very rarely run into their quotes with AMX in em.

Seems they do a decent amount by accident but I dont recall seeing any ABT representives at any of the AMX Elite dealer Meetings......

Owen, when my friend came out of the interview and called me and said the Krell thing I started laughing. I told him to walk back into the store and look around, he may see some of it! He started laughing and said something like "As big as that store is I can understand why they don't know what they are selling".
with all do respect... i had no idea that you had an experimental surgery to have your balls removed.

I'm really surprised that we don't have it yet.

Uh... I think I got scammed... I was in the parking lot at Safeway the other day, and these two dudes in a new White Escalade pulled over and told me they had been overshipped on their Control 4 order, and could sell me a system for $1200.00 (normally $5000)... They even had pictures of it in a magazine and everthing... They'd even toss in a pair of free Theater Logic speakers to sweeten the deal!!! Said they are really easy to install and hook up too - anybody can do it!

Add C4 to the ongoing list of venders who try
to convince us that going into big box store is
good for us....

ZON tried to convince us of that not too long
ago with Crutchfield..... We could even sign
up to install stuff sold through Crutchfield......
What a deal! I wonder if C4 will institute such
a benefit for their independant dealers....

I see @V@D distribution in the [near] future.......

Crap. I actually fell for that Crutchfield joke 3 years ago. They sell it as some big windfall for my business. I probably got 2 calls a week for 3 months. ALL of them were for car audio. All of them. Maybe I should have switched my business model. Or not.
