well it happened today. and Now I am really truly

sorry mike...hope things work out for you.

 

That sucks. I've never even seen cadence in a store. You'd think they would want every available outlet to sell thier product. I was cosidering thier amps based strictly on good things I heard about them on this forum and your low prices. There's no way I would walk into a car audio store and paY what they want for thier products retail after never having heard of them.

 

Mike, My turn around time on Cadence direct is terrible, and UPS sucks here, or I'd set it up for you. I suggest Santa Fe... They carry the whole line, and their prices are decent. I'll hit you in the staff forum...

 

Sorry to hear that Mike. When you told me about this earlier today in AOL, I was completely clueless. If it wasn't for your online store, I would have not heard of Cadence and their wonderful, powerful amps.

You, in a way, helped to broaden their market base, by informing guys like me (Audiophile newbies, and hobbyists alike) that such a product exists.

I hope you will still be able to sell this line of product as I will be looking forward to purchase another Cadence amp in the next few months.

Good Luck.

p.s. Nice Site.

 

I just wrote em an email for you Michael.

 

MY AMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh god Oh god.....I have no money and no sub.....why does god hate me?

 

Hey Mike,

I wrote them an e-mail. You've been nothing to awesome to me as a customer and a board member.

Here is an excerpt:

"If you take a look at some of the more popular web forums / communities you will notice that the word Cadence and Michael are almost always associated with each other."

Hope it helps man.

 

Mike you got a great backbone here B)

 

I just hear that www.shop4sound.com has lost its priviledge of selling cadence products. There are no cadence dealers around here and I was going to go with them for my next component amp. http://www.shop4sound.com is a very legit business and Michael, the owner, is a great guy. He was getting A LOT of cadence sales and I'd like to attribute the internet rage of new cadence products (other than maybe the A7HC) to his forum members who tried them out due to the good specs and decent cost. I am in no way affiliated with shop4sound or Michael, and it will only affect me in the way of choosing a new component amp, but I am very supportive of him and his business and was looking forward to seeing what the huge net rage of "buy Cadence" was all about. Maybe you all should think of that before you make decisions like this.

A lost customer,
Shawn Anderson

good enough?

Mike, wish you the best of luck, dont know if it would help you out, but i can give you a phone number for a cadence distributor i use, not sure if they drop ship or if you would want to work eith someone so far away, but ill be hapy to shoot you their info. If interested just shoot me a pm.. and cadence has an email..

 

My advise would be to follow the lead of another well known e-tailer.

Sell the Cadence for $550, but offer a $100 gift certificate with it.

That way, you can sell Cadence for the "authorized" price, but your still giving people a good deal, AND your enticing people to spend more money with you.

Ampman doesn't sell Cadence, but he offers the "gift certificates" or "coupons" with the purchase of certain products.

You sell the amp for $550 like Cadence wants you too, but you offer the coupon. You keep cadence, your customers are still getting a good deal, and they've just bought $100 worth of accessories (at a great price of course) that they may not have purchased from you before.

It's a win/win/win

imp:

 

oh well, it was a thought.

 

I'll go ahead and throw together an email for ya Mike.
