PEACHTREE GRAND X-1 INTEGRATED DEFECT PROBLEMS


I'm about to pull the trigger and purchase the Peachtree Grand X-1 integrated and have noticed a number of Dealer's are selling refurbished X-1's which gives me the creeps since the X-1 has only been out for two years and to see the volume of refurb's available indicates there was a manufacturing defect that wasn't caught until after the units hit the market. Does anyone out there own the X-1 integrated and have you had defect issues or has your X-1 been very reliable?

I have two pairs, Proac D2 and Wilson Benesch ARC, that I mix and match between my living room and my office. Speaker swapping I do for fun, but I swap amps in my office out of necessity - during summer I move the ARC tube integrated into the living room, because it's too hot in my small office, and that's where the X-1 is great because I give up nothing on sound quality to the ARC but the Peachtree puts out very little heat. In the winter, when it gets colder in the house, I'll drag the ARC back into the office and it becomes a music-producing space heater :-)
The response delay with these forums is awful - seems like it can take up to a day for a response to post. There's another thread on here where it took 4 days for my post to show up. Maybe it's time to upgrade the Pentium 60?
Upgrade the Pentium 60?..Amen to that!. Throw in upgrading their Security firewall program. Its crap. I get hit with pop-up malware about three times a month on Audiogon. Thank God I have Webroot which captures it every time and deletes the bastard.
