Sad news indeed - we were supposed to be borrowing a couple of powered bass bins from them at the weekend.

Shame about sound control....they were ok.

But not Turkey.
Biggest bunch of useless box shifting b*stards Ive ever met.
Swore I would never give them another penny of my cash after how they screwed me over and gave me possibly the worst customer service I have ever experienced, way back in 2000, and I have remained true to that.
Shame for them, as I have spent a $****load kitting out the studio since then.
Good riddance.

Was that from the Leeds store? and have you got a back up plan Bubba?

Thats a bit of a bind, I found it quite funny that a number of the competitors have sent emails out expressing their sadness at Sound Control & Turnkey going into administration and they would like to offer all of sound controls customers a good level of service and will happily take any orders that people were waiting for

They'll be back. It certainly wouldn't surprise me.

same as Freak - I've spend a LOT of money with these firms (for both myself and clients).
Turnkey..... not overly bothered, but Sound Control, shame.

Oh well, back to Thomman, Ebay & Stirling Syco!
