Wadia still in business?


Is Wadia still in business? My emails get sent back and phone calls just go to an answering machine. What is happening there?

Sorry to bring such a old thread back to life, but these days, Wadia is as good, if not better, than always.

It's certainly not my view of ​​Wadia today.

Wadia continues to expose announced launches (almost 3 years for the 121 DAC), and I have knowledge of many quality problems on their machine, and my own S7i is filled with finish defects, which Wadia refused to solve :-(
From Wadia homepage:

Subject: Wadia Shut Down
:-(
The new owners have shut Wadia down and will eventually move it to Minnesota from Michigan.

Sad...
I fondly remember when they were in River Falls Wisc. I drove over several times and they showed me things they were working on and I listened to products in their listening room. I also dropped off and picked up products for upgrades. Lots of fun for an audiophile!
If indeed they are having problems, I hope they can manage to get through them.
Announcement about new management, change in location, etc:

I am having problems with a GNSC modified 381: MUCH higher than expected noise floor with frequent clicks and pops not unlike a dirty vinyl record. Incredibly, GNSC said they cannot reproduce the problem but I hear the noise in multiple sound systems in multiple locations. This 381 has been plagued since new. For what it is worth, my Wadia warranty was voided as a result of the modifications, a situation that was never discussed prior to the sale. I fear that I am stuck with this lemon. Nobody answers the phone at Wadia except a machine.
