Is Clayton Audio Out Of Business

Trying to confirm if Clayton Audio and Wilson Shen are out of business?? I had a pair of Clayton M70 monos for a long time and they were really excellent. Had considered a pair of M100 monos fairly recently which were for sale on Audiogon. It would be a real shame if Clayton Audio has gone under. The website is dead and that is usuallly a very bad sign. Would appreciate it if anyone knows for sure and could post the answer on this board.

Wilson is still in business.
He is currently developing a new pre-amp.
Best means of getting onto Clayton gear is: www.triaudio.com

No, as of this week I've been in contact with Terry at TRI Audio looking into becoming a dealer for Clayton.

Wilson Shen and Clayton Audio are alive and well. The rumors that their web-site got hijacked are correct.

Hi Boonetrc,
Clayton is indeed alive and well. Go to Audio Asylum and lookup Mitch2 send me an e-mail and I will send you Wilson Shen's e-mail address. I have heard others say the lower powered Claytons, with the right speakers, sound as good as the rest of the line. I hope you like your S40s as much as I like my M300s.

Tim,
Thanks for your response. I had the oppertunity to listen to the S40 once, still mad at myself for not purchasing it, but yes, it in fact is one sweet little amp. I have had 2 pioneer M 22s, which for the money I don't think any SS pure Class A amp can touch, the S40 for the value comes really close. I'm going to lookup Mitch and see what I can can find. I'm sure your M300s rock are sweet sounding. What speakers are you driving?
