Is Magnepan still in business ?

Does anyone know if these guys are still actively in business? No one answers the phone, no one returns a VM, no one returns an email- except Wendell who briefly and vaguely says "I'm no longer involved with sales and I'm traveling"- 

 

I ordered a pair of LRS+ back in November with a woman at Magnepan who now seems to no longer be there (her email bounces back) and when I call/email to check in on the order I get nothing from anyone. Does anyone know what's going on or is it as obvious as it appears- they're out of or going out of business? Bizarre.

The definition of "shilling" is of a hustler or con artist who tries to convince others to buy something that will benefit the shiller.

As a long-time (and current) Magnepan owner (first pair bought in 1973) that term does not fit me. I also own the Eminent Technology LFT-8b, which I thought the OP might like to become aware of. Everyone knows about the planar-magnetic loudspeakers offered by Magnepan, far fewer that Eminent Technology offers a somewhat similar (and imo superior) loudspeaker as well.

You got a problem with that? May I ask why?

@snapsc Thanks but as I posted above Eric finally called me back, the speakers are enroute and- Char no longer works there - hence the email bounce back. 

 

thanks
