[DML] Re: Re: Grounding Each Speaker Individually (was: sound systemupgrading)

[dmcjohn@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Bob,
Could you please give us an idea of your electronic/electrical 
engineering experience?
The reason I ask is that at the moment I would be concerned about 
your products damaging the electrical systems of DeLoreans. I'm sure 
you can appreciate my concerns with anyone buying your rear 
speaker/flux capacitor item, when you do not seem to know how to wire 
a radio correctly, or how it even operates. Please take this as a 
concern of mine for the DeLorean cars we love and enjoy, and not an 
attack against you personally. 
Best wishes,
John Dore, Ireland.
