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 instead of berating @thecarpathian for using literary license, you should thank him for improving upon your feeble English. The question is not whether he duplicated the exact words you used, but rather whether he accurately captured the gist of your, uh, lament. And that he did.

Then don’t quote it. Just say it. Quoting it and acting like I said those words is insanely disingenuous. Calling my English "feeble" when you are defending him of falsely quoting 101. Do you see the irony? Quoting has a very specific purpose. I suggest you go read more about what it does and its intent. But I will give you a chance to prove your point. Show me the "agonizing, struggle, desperate" and "hyperbolic nonsense" that makes the situation more dire than it is that contains within my opening post. Go ahead. @thecarpathian You too. You're straight up lying and putting words in my mouth. |
I don’t know if you understand what you are doing. I am in incredible pain right now and have been over the last 10 days. Over something that is way more significant than a broken amp but is still not a big deal. Then today I just learned that one of my best friend is seriously ill. I suddenly felt ashamed that I can suffer so much while others have real real pain and problems. I think we all try to understand you but failing. Many offered you help with contacting your amplifier vendor and you ignored them. What was the purpose of your post? |
@grislybutter Never, ever, EVER, have I compared my situation to another person and say mine is worse or theirs is worse. It’s not up to me to judge. What are you? I can’t even, am I living in an alternate reality right now? I find your above post oddly puzzling. You are in incredible pain and you have every rights to feel that way. The fact that you "felt ashamed" because you’re suffering so much while others have "real pain and problem"? And somehow your pains don’t matter? What are you doing, what is this logic? His pain does not negate yours. It’s perfectly sane to feel both your pain and the pain of his situation. This is what normal humans do. They feel pain from multiple angles with varying degree. Decooney is the only person I remember advising me to contact vendors. And I did, and guess what, all 3 of them couldn’t help. But it was worth a shot.

@grislybutter The purpose of my post was perfectly clear. I even labeled it properly in the title. I am sad because my amplifier broke. That’s it. I understood that things like this happen in life, I even mentioned it. But a broken amplifier doesn’t just mean a broken amplifier, it broke my entire audio system. Each of us has different values for different things and I value my audio system very much. Very, very much. It means nothing to others. But it is significant to me. |
