Hi: I question that Technics sold only in
less quanity than the so called big three, who ever they are. All the Technics dealors I ever talked to, complained that they simply could not get enough of them, and were back ordered constantly. Another company. could take over, but there is really some big bucks required there, and there may be many patents involved. Technics Division garnered over thirty million last year (per Technicsplayer) so perhaps there
were some production problems too. ARJ
