I’m a long time Green Mountain Audio fan. The best system I’ve owned over the last 30 years had Green Mountain speakers. The clarity and coherence of his designs were second to NONE! Roy was also very giving of his time as he did love to talk. However, he has, on more than one occasion, taken money from customers and promised them the world only to not make good on his promises.
Roy basically lived hand to mouth and was just trying to survive doing what he knew how to do best, make great speakers.
I had once referred a customer to Roy and he promised this poor guy a custom effort on a new pair of speakers he was designing. Needless to say the customer paid for the speakers but NEVER received them. More promises and a little more bullshitting. This went on for over 2 years until the gentleman finally gave up.
Roy’s ability to design was undeniable. His business prowess was horrific. He wasn’t a bad person but not everyone knew him the same way.
May he Rest In Peace as any outstanding orders will more than surely be resting in peace too.
Im sorry for anyone’s financial loss but sometimes it’s best to move on. I know it sucks but your “time has phased out!”
