JMI Amps
Posted: Wed Jan 06, 2010 9:51 am
I dont want this to be libellous but I was talking to an amp-tech friend yesterday about JMI amps (which are way out of my price range BTW!) and wondered if anybody either could add or correct anything I was told.
1. Are JMI still in litigation with Korg/Vox for copying their amps?
2. That JMI (which used to stand for Jennings Musical Industries, the original makers of Vox) registered the name as it was available?
3. copied the original vox schematics that are now in the public domain?
4. Do people think that they are getting an original classic Vox?
5. Has the quality of VOX amps decreased? (thereby creating the demand for a quality British valve amp)
