I am sad

I am very sad. Feels like I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place.

My amplifier is malfunctioning. It happens. Just fix it and move on what’s the big deal? Well I’m trying. I need the company of the amp to send me the invoice so I can buy the part and start the fixing. But they don’t reply to my e-mails. It’s been 3 weeks since the last communication. The amp has been broken for 2 months. I just need them to let me pay for the part. I don’t understand what’s so difficult. I’m sad.

 

I’m unfortunately married to the sound of this amp. For example a person married to the Mcintosh sound or the Pass labs sound. My speakers (Summit X) are amplifier picky. They love this amp. I check my email 20x a day hoping to see the invoice. I also check the junks. They had already said the part is available for $300. I’m not even sad anymore. I am depressed.

I know of audiophiles who have ordered speakers and waiting 12 months for them to ship them. I myself, have waited 3 months for speakers and once I dealt with a very bad company and sent equipment back and forth for 2 years before I cut ties with them and sold the gear. Patience is a must in this hobby...

Does the manufacturer have a Facebook page?  If they do, you might get some attention there. 

I recently bought a gold bracelet for my wife from Macy's.  It broke. It was defective. Several online chats and phone calls with Macy's. I was told, sorry, you're 11 days past the return period and there is no product warranty. I posted a comment on their Facebook page and shortly thereafter, they offered a full refund and paid return shipping.

A public display of self-pity.  MAN UP SOLDIER!  There's no crying in High End Audio.
