I've now had a quick chat on the telephone to Hugo about the acquisition, and he's pretty much laid my fears to rest.

When you really think about it, S3 would be incredibly foolish to upset such a close knit and productive team as they have acquired with Empeg.

I'm sure that securing the continued expertise of all concerned must be paramount in the minds of the S3 management. After all, what's the use of acquiring a product, if you can't retain the brains behind it?

I guess we will all just have to wait and see what happens, but I don't think that the Empeg brand will be disappearing any time soon.

Andy.
