Hmm.....maybe the title could be changed, just one letter. Then it could change into the first XMC-1 whining thread. I can start: Aaaaggghhhh!! They delayed the UMC-1 a bit more! Now it will be even later that they start working on the XMC-1. We won't even see a drawing before November!  Does that help? |

Well said. I'm sure the good folks at Emo feel the same way too. Instead of looking at the typical "where is the UMC-1???" rants, they could be using that time on product testing and implementation. I'm guessing 'product testing and implementation' don't have to wait till there are no posts in the Lounge. But I could be wrong..... R |

Does that help?That's cool, I'll start the follow-up comment- "You guys, Emo is the best A/V company I've ever seen, their prices and products have no equal, and they're even having us over for a cookout. Therefore, no negative comments, or critical feedback, will be allowed around here. Everything they're doing could not ever be done better or different, and the way they've handled everything has been perfect until they say otherwise. They don't want us here for that feedback, they want us here to tell them over and over how awesome they are, because that's what helps a company get better." |

I say, just put it out now. DCP is a pain in the ass and just screws us consumers over anyway.

Companies do not get better or make better products from positive feedback. It's the negative feedback that alerts them to their inadequacies and in turn moves them to improve. I love their products and I love the way I'm treated by their staff. I am dissappointed that I have to wait a bit longer but I also know it will be worth the wait. |

Negtive feedback is for when something is done wrong. What exactly are they doing wrong here? Maybe some of the newer members need a reminder of the LMC-1's legacy and what happens when you don't quite get all the kinks out before releasing a product. Trust me, waiting until it is right is a very, very good thing. It's like good barbecue. It's done when it's done. Have a beer! |

I only started a new thread because they posted the update on the site but not in the lounge. I'm glad they are addressing the problem but at the same time am disappointed. They gave us info but were a little vague on when the problem was found and where they are at in the process of addressing it. I'm not complaining and I'm sure they have a strategy for releasing updates as they should but, it does leave a lot of room for speculation as far as a time line goes. Did they have a batch done and now need to pull the boards to redo them? How long ago did they start this process? They could be months away or it could already be done and they are on a boat???
Patience is a virtue so we must all start drinking heavily I guess. I’m sure most of us are doing OK with what we have right now.

Most may be but I for one have nothing now because like an idiot I actually thought the webcast was legitimate and put faith in the targeted date once again.

Thanks for the pep talk but... Companies do not get better or make better products from positive feedback. It's the negative feedback that alerts them to their inadequacies and in turn moves them to improve. I love their products and I love the way I'm treated by their staff. I am dissappointed that I have to wait a bit longer but I also know it will be worth the wait. Negtive feedback is for when something is done wrong. What exactly are they doing wrong here? Maybe some of the newer members need a reminder of the LMC-1's legacy and what happens when you don't quite get all the kinks out before releasing a product. Trust me, waiting until it is right is a very, very good thing. It's like good barbecue. It's done when it's done. Have a beer! Something was indeed done wrong. If not then this would not be done and shipping correct? Somewhere in the depths of the Emo machine there is a tester (or testing process) that was responsible for validating the DCP. Apparently this was either not done or not done adequately. This testing gap has led to yet another delay in shipping of the UMC product. My point is not to bash Emo, as this kind of thing happens to most companies but it seems that there is a mass here that has the Emo Goggles on. They did make a mistake here. It happens, but to claim that they did not is ludicrous. I would also tend to agree with the earlier poster who stated that this is where improvements come from. It is likely that however this issue was not detected exposed a hole in their testing process that will not happen again when they start testing the XMC. Emo becomes the better company for it in the end...and (hopefully) we all end up with a solid product. |

Good things come to those who wait.... Now is there some kind of hidden meaning in that message? I'm going to read it backwards and see if it reveals anything. Or maybe you have to record what is written and then play it backwards. Through an Emo amp, though.. |
