What happened to Mytek?

They just exhibited at Capitol AudioFest so it would seem they’re still around.  Every year or two you read about communication problems with them so maybe it’s that time of year again.

Well that's good to know!  And yes, exactly.  I had trouble reaching them before for maintenance things too.

Mytek emailed me about a new or updated product launch (I don’t remember which) a couple of months ago so it seems they’re still around. I wasn’t interested so didn’t click on it.

I got an email from them on Xmas eve. I know they had an issue with a fabricator reselling used Mytek equipment without Mytek’s knowledge a couple years ago. They then had to re-establish their fabrication capability, etc.  Seemed to be a pretty painful process. 
 

Love my Manhattan II DAC. 

My understanding is that their tech was developed in Poland. That group split off and founded Ferrum. Not sure where Mytek is developing its tech now.

Thanks guys, some of this I was aware of, like having to find a new factory. I didn't realize they had their business partner decide to compete with them.

The last I really followed them they were developing the Empire, which had essentially 2 micro PC boards inside it, or something like that.  A hugely wasteful set of resources... but whatever.
