The didn't. As I understand it from "industry sources", SoundGraph
only sells OEM parts now, and Antec is now SoundGraph's primary
distributor for the stuff not already built into a case. The Antec
Veris Elite is the name for the VFD, the Antec Veris Premiere is the
LCD. The iMON Knob was actually something entirely different, it
doesn't have a display, its an external IR receiver that is also a
volume knob. I know all this, because I have the Elite, the Premiere
and the iMON Knob all in my stash of hardware here. :) (well, the Knob
is actually down at my brother's place in Brooklyn atm).
