Question ID: 472746
I own a tube style powered subwoofer that I need a wiring harness for.
The subwoofer is a 8.25" diameter X 19.75" black tube with a speaker
on one end and a wiring tail, low level rca input, gain adjustment
knob and a frequency adjustment knob. There is a big sticker on the
back that says "Watermark" all one word. It also says "Subwoofer
system, Made in the USA" on the back. My question is: Can you find
contact information for the manufacture of this product so I can buy a
new wiring harness?  In my searching I found that the speaker may be
made by a company called "Collins Watermark" but I don't know for
sure.

Hello.

US Trademark data indicates that the Watermark subwoofer products were
made by Collins-Sun Electronics, Inc, of California.

From US Trademark data:

WATERMARK

COLLINS-SUN ELECTRONICS, INC.
17795 Sky Park Circle, Suite A
Irvine, CA 92614
United States
...
GOODS AND/OR SERVICES
subwoofer speaker system
source: US Patent & Trademark office
http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=75126721

Collins-Sun Electronics, Inc, has been dissolved, according to
California corporate records. See:
http://kepler.ss.ca.gov/corpdata/ShowAllList?QueryCorpNumber=C1818283

Note, though, that trademark records indicate that Collins-Sun
assigned the Watermark brand to:

WATERMARK INTERNATIONAL GROUP, INC.
101 CONVENTION CENTER DR. #700
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA 89109

A search for 'Watermark' in Nevada corporate records indicates that
WATERMARK INTERNATIONAL GROUP was still active as of 2002.

Note, that while several web sites such as AudioWeb list contact
information for Collins-Sun Electronics in California,  I tried the
telephone number and it's been disconnected.

---------
search strategy:
uspto.gov, trademark search: watermark and collins

I hope this helps.

I've located more information by searching the Cortona address mentioned above:

Watermark Intl
9 Cortona Irvine, CA 92614
TEL : 949-477-2308 FAX : 949-477-2414
E-Mail : wmcs@aol.com

 949-477-2308 is an operational fax number, so if I were you, I'd send
them a fax at that number.
