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 $300. I’m not even sad anymore. I am depressed.
@samureyex It does help...try it. You can still enjoy the music you love using a lesser amplifier with a greater attitude. I had a hand operation a few months ago that involves ongoing therapy, and once in a while I feel a bit sorry for myself, until I remember that a former workmate and good friend found out 6 months ago that he has metastatic cancer. Yes...perspective. |
.......yup, metastatic cancer will put things in perspective really quick. Unfortunately it can be game over for some. I am a cancer survivor myself and I can only imagine what they are going through as that road is very lonely and very scary. I pray everyday that the science progresses to a point where even with that sh%$ , that people can or will live long and happy lives without worry. I wish your friend peace and hope. My perspective : I have been waiting on the repair of an Accuphase DP 1000 for almost 2 months now that only had about 4 months use on it. I bought it brand new and it was not inexpensive and pissed off .....you bet. I was told that it could be the only one in the world that has been sold that has needed repair. Accuphase gear does not break, Pissed off ....yup. AXISS Distribution has been great and very responsive but I too have been without music ....so I do to a degree understand the OP's plight. But keeping it '' Perspective '' is very, very true. |
The people teaching me about perspective doesn’t quite seem to understand what perspective actually is. Perspective is seeing the importance of something in another person’s eyes. To some, their car is more important than their family. To some, their children is everything. To some, their kids don’t matter much. To some, their dog is their family. To some, a dog is just a pet. To some, a dog is mere food. To some, cancer means the end of the road and they can accept it. To some, cancer is the most upsetting news they can get. These are all perspectives, all different. With multiple point of view. The people that say certain situations and certain emotions are invalid because other people have it much worse is not understand what "perspective" truly is. 3 billion people are in constant hunger, millions lose family in wars. I guess none of us should have any negative emotions because these people have it much worse. |
I understand my situation is not dire, it’s not big in the grand scheme of things. I have not expressed any anger towards the company. I’ve also hid the name of the company for this reason. Some people HAD to know the name of the company for god knows why. I understand sometimes things just happen that are not intentional. But to say I can’t have a certain emotion because other people have it much worse is silly and laughable. As the post above indicated. Perspective is not easily quantified. |
@thecarpathian You made me laughed for bragging about perspective without understanding it. |
