Audio Research filing for bankruptcy?

I just heard Audio Research might be filing for bankruptcy. This is a shock to me. I just called them a few days ago to have my Ref 6 upgraded to a Ref 6SE. I will also be the new owner of the Ref 750s. I was just wondering if they did go bankrupt what would all those millions of owners do about servicing their equipment. Should I be concerned? I’m alittle worried now.

"millions of onwers"?

If I owned ARC equipment I would be concerned, not about repairs or service, but about resale value.  Although I definitely would not send equipment to the factory for an upgrade until this is sorted out.

A conglomerate will buy them and keep the brand. No worries.

@onhwy61 Why do u say that about not sending in for an upgrade until this gets sorted out ? I already made the appointment and got my RA number. What do u think would could happen?

I wouldn't send gear out there right now.    A judge could padlock the building and you will never see it.   Chances are thats not going to happen but......
