I don't think they're EML as the nameplate on the EML beside me says
"Electronic Music Labs", plural, rather than singular. I don't think
Turner Inc was trying to counterfeit EML gear; "Electronic Music Lab"
would be a logical label. I also don't think the seller is trying to
cheat people; I suspect it's an honest error.
