Wow, thanks for the warning!
And to think I was getting ready to order a $10,000 "Rocky Special" from Mr.
Roccaforte. Based solely on this post, now I'm just gonna get that Electar 10
from MusicYo instead!

Roccaforte's amps. They are extremely well made in my opinion. I love the
tone of the Roccaforte amps. They have high gain but are extremely musical. I
just finished recording a CD at Mitch Easter's Fidelitorium using a Roccaforte
along some other amps. The consensus of everybody involved was that the amp
sounded great. It is the loudest 50 watt amp I've ever heard; but its gain
and volume control let you reduce volume and keep the amp's tone. Doug
Roccafore is also a super guy. So, respectfully I could not disagree more
with the person posting the initial message. Thanks, Doug

That's slander, and it's libelous. I hope you can prove it.

Judging from the statements you made
when you first crawled out from under
the bridge the only deduction I can
make is that his amp's must be
pretty nice.

That's basically why I filter that asswipe, he's clueless.
I couldn't tell anyone anything about Rocky's circuit designs, but
just judging from the photos I've seen of his chassis and wiring job,
the guy seems to be making carefully crafted amps. I'd consider
buying one if I had some spare money.

Roccaforte. Guess who that leaves! Tell the truth sucker, you've never
even SEEN a Roccaforte amp, now have you? (Oh, we're gonna have fun with

It's happened previously on this newsgroup that people have posted under
someone else's name. I don't have the computer know-how to be able to tell
whether or not this is the case with this person.
If, indeed, Mr. DDuperre is the originator of this post, he has lost any
credibility with me that he might have had previously. And as LV pointed
out, his choice of words may be deemed worthy of legal action. Sad that
someone like this could have made some friends here and benefited from the
interaction with others

brief look through many of his recent posts and checked the headers.
I am not an expert on sophisticated forgery techniques, but on the
surface it seems that the somebody with the same return Email address

Hows it going Mr Morgan. I was one of youre students at DeVry. I graduated
with an Associate of Applied Science in Electronics in Feb 1993. I was in
youre afternoon Digital 1 class, youre afternoon 5th term microprocessors
class, and I think youre 4th term microprocessors class, but I couldnt swear
to that I am not posotive. I came back for EET and aquired some credit hours
but was unable to finish. I had no idea that you were heavily involved with
Radios. So am I. At DeVry I did really well in analouge communications but
was marginal at best in the other classes (including yours nothing
personal). I allways thought you were a very good teacher and a nice (maybe
a little strange sometimes) guy. I must say not as strange as Mr. Duke
though. I can remember you walking around in the Lab singing "Up in the
valley of the jolley green giant". And youre suggestion that they remove the
minute hands from the clocks to improve their apparant accuracy. Any way I
ran across this site while doing a search for "fort worth ham". And one more
thing, I like Surfing Bird. But I was told (it was a little before my time)
that when that song was new a major Fort Worth radio station deemed it the
worst song ever recorded and had a record burning at Forest Park. Funny
thing is they gave quite a bit of sales to them (Sam and the Sham I think
but im not sure about that) by purchasing so many copies of it to burn. I
just wanted you to know that I have a lot of respect for you and I learned a
lot from you. Take care, Damon Duperre

About a year ago there were several very stupid posts in the theory group with my
name and email. I did not post them. I may not be too smart, but I'm not
stupid.
I reported it and was told that it wasn't worth the bother to track the guy down.
Later I saw more posts from this guy in a private group that I was in. This
narrowed it down and I figured out who it was.
I wrote a threatening e mail to him saying that it was a federal offense. I
guess he believed me because they stopped.

Who knows?
This guy has been causing trouble since he came here.
You know, with all of the email pissing matches,
usenet rage wars, there's allways that one in a
million chance that the amp builder someone decieds
to stalk, slander, has Lawyer customers/freinds/dealer for my amp.
We are talking Lawyers that make their livings
going after hughe corperations.
A single person against these atty's is like this:
imagine taking all the earths water supply,
and making one rather large drop of water.
Next, on the ground you have a smoldering burnt
match head.
Now, imagine what would happen if you were to drop
this hughe droplet on this match?
I am a man of my word,
and he was warned more than once.

then told us that he was using a "friend's" account?

Now I am interested in them.

Well, it fits in with his pattern. On May 10, I got
an email from him vilifying Doug. It definitley came
from a home.com server, and my sendmail logs indicate
the home.com server thought it was really him. So if
that email was a spoof, it was a darned good one. He
has been flaming Doug the whole time.
Of course, Doug fanned the flames a bit, but that's no
excuse for such behavior.

Dang! There goes the lawsuit....
Jeff Juhala
look at them on the net...... I'd still try to make the guys life hell...
just for making his point in such an uninformed, ignorant manner.
Intellignet conversation over the merits/shortcomings of a Roccaforte would
serve us all better, even the maker of the amp.

Nah, I don't think unintended good consequences

I have a 50 watt Roccaforte and ab tested against a 68 plexi and the
Roccaforte sounded better. This is like a great vintage marshall with
more gain on tap and huge low end. Great amp.
