How long is it taking to receive a preamp?

Hello,
Ayre is like 4 weeks. Luckily they bought enough of certain chips to last a while. Some dealers are seeing the problems ahead of time so they bought a good amount of stock. 

I lucked out with the McIntosh C2700 that I picked up back in late July. I only had to wait 4 weeks from the order date with my dealer only because it was ordered for the store and was in the que. He told me amps were taking 8-12 weeks and pre-amps were longer.

Regards.

Could you be a little more vague?
