Cary Audio


Over the weekend my Cary Amp (V12) died, so I thought. Only do these things happen during a weekend when there is no one to call for support, manufacture or dealer. As the weekend progresses I only get more depressed. Long story short, Sunday night I Emailed Dennis Had (owner of Cary Audio) and told him of my problem, hoping that he would forward it on to the person that would, hopefully, take care of my problem and give me an RAN (Return Authorization number). Monday morning comes I call Cary and ask for there customer service, I was informed that they take calls on Mondays after 1:00. I hang the phone up and it immediataley rings, Dennis Had on the line. He asks me a few questions suggests we try a few things, and guess what it is now playing music as beautifuly as it ever has. Without going into the reasons why it wasn't working all I will say it was something I had done.

My point with all this rambling is that Cary Audio as well as many of the other high end audio manufactures should be applauded for the customer service that they render. There are a few manufactures that I have also dealt with that just don't seem to care when I have called with a problem or just a question, these manufactures should take a closer look at the Cary's of this world. This was not the first time I had dealings with Mr. Had or some of his people, all I can say is that I applaud you and your company for your custome support. I should also mention Mr. Kevin Deal of Upscale Audio who also called Monday morning with concerns of my problem. Again to both Mr. Had and Mr. Deal, thanks for taking care of just one customer......Bob

I once had a similar situation where Nelson Pass personally worked out a solution to an imcompatibility problem I was having. He called me back with the answer, and then emailed me a diagram of the fix.

PS Audio has also proven themselves to be extremely customer oriented.

I agree with John 1, though, the rest of the wold is becoming dreadful as regards to customer service. The internet may not have invented hiding from customers, but it certainly seems to have raised the activity to an art form for many companies. I've had similar problems with AT&T- just unbelievably bad. ATT seems to invent new ways to alienate their customer. Worse part is nobody seems to care. The incompetent monolith just buys more small comanies to mask the fact that it has no way of growing on it's own.

A few companies still care and it's usually becasue there's a Paul McGowan or a Nelson Pass that's personally involved and whose reputation in on the line. They take their customers seriously and it shows in the way they conduct their business. I take my hard-earned money seriously also, and it shows in whose products I purchase.
