Do Spectron Amps have faulty switching modulators?

You've been told this by several Audiophiles??? I have no idea who those people are but as an owner for some two years I can tell you I have never had a reliability problem with my Spectron amps. Mine switch on, make music, and generally are about the most fuss-free components I've known in 20 years in this hobby.....maybe I am not an Audiophile.

I've had mine for a year..no prob's. I read as much as I could find before purchasing it and never read anything about switching modulators. Worse thing I ever read was some people are miffed that they are now ID. But in todays amrket that is where things are headed.

I own two monoblocks for a few years now (one was purchased used) and I never had any problem. I enjoy immensely these amps (w/Joule-Electra preamp) driving my new power hungry Sasha by Wilson.

I am sure that some amplifiers failed here and there - in exact manner as other well established amp did. Its obvious.

The REAL question must be: what was a customer service? Did they hold this amp(s) months and months, did not answered e-mails and phone calls ? Were unresponsive etc?

From my own experience, Spectron has one of the best customer service around. Cetainly much better then most I encountered.
