Re: Does anyone know what's going on at EMU?

2003-12-19 by glennjamison

As a former rep for e-mu, all I can say is that I think they are in 
bad shape.  None of they're products seem to be selling at all.  They 
are dropping their pants on prices with new adjustments almost 
daily.  They are blowing a lot of stuff out right now and I think the 
end of E-mu is near unfortunately. Please E-mu, tell us I'm wrong.
