Audio Research in Receivership.

Personally, I wouldn't trust any Audio Research Exec's claim that it's business as usual as they "attempt" to secure new ownership.  Why take a risk?  There is only a downside for the consumer at this time.  I wish Audio Research all the best.

Unfortunately, I agree with @testpilot 

Anyone who is keen to buy an AR product would be well-advised to wait until the dust settles.

this sounds so much like what happens before the collapse. When you have to scream "don't panic!" with a megaphone, panic already consumed everyone. 

If the company ends up being saved, it was a classic communication disaster for sure,

Going all- in with KT150’s was a mistake? 

Yes. Have you tried to source reliable KT150's over the last three years? Evidently not. 

@fsonicsmith1  while I agree that buying reliable KT 150’s can be a chore, there are some vendors who do sell them and they seem fine. I have had luck with Upscale audio, among others. Buying on eBay is not advised.
