Default What happened to perpetual technologies?

That's a strange name for an audio company. Was it supposed to

be
"perceptual"?


Nope, it was Perpetual. Run by a guy Mark Shifter (sp?) who
harks back to Audio Alchemy. Snake oil is probably a tad harsh
for AA...but there was some debates about their claims and
products (DAC-in-a-box for one).

Perpetual Technologies/AV123 on the other hand is supposed to
have some good stuff. Their Rocket line of speakers enjoys a
large internet following and review very well. They also have a
high end reference series and some smaller HTiB systems.
Designed here in the states and manufactured in China they are
supposed to be very high quality for the buck. A "perpetual"
comment is the Rockets hold their own both cosmetically and
performance wise with speakers several times their price. The
crossovers (patent pending) and drivers were designed by none
other than Dick Pierce who is without reproach. As his client it
appears Mark actually listening to what Dick said and got a good
product as a result.
