DiVinci
DV-606, Towers, suround system Ripoff

Last week I was approached by a white pickup truck and two man, mid-to-late twenties offering me a high end surround sound system that they had an extra in the shipment.

I was presented a bill of shipment and a cost of the system, MRSP $ 3,650.00 US. I was asked to through them any offer. Just out of crusty I offered $ 350 CND. The other person got involved and started arguing the quality and cost of the system.

I advised I do not need it and I was about to walk away. Then they agreed to take $ 350.

I brought the system home. I try to connect it. After I energize a system smoke start coming out of the main unit. I am an electrical engineer and I opened the unit to see what is going on. The transformer was fry.

I start investigating where I could by a replacement transformer. I noticed that a fry unit did not have a proper labeling, no manufacturer name, no VA rating. It cough my attention that a transformer was rated for 50 Hz, while all Canada and USA is 60Hz. This might cause the transformer to go into a saturation and burn out.

I contacted 909-923-4518 and I was very much surprised that no help was offered. People was very unprofessional and something start ringing a bell. No serious manufacturer will ever refuse help on technical issues. The prices of other equipment listed on the web was high, therefore, I should be dealing with a reputable Co.

I start browsing internet about divinci@divincisound.com & PRECISION TRANSDUCER SYSTEMS INC. And voila. Rip-Off after rip-off.

I lost $350 and I do not regret the lesson. It could be more
And you folks out here try to learn from other people mistakes! PLS do not get caught in a such deal.
