Do not buy any Sonus Faber used


Sumiko just announced that
"IN ADDITION, SUMIKO WILL NOT SUPPLY PARTS AND/OR SERVICE FOR ANY SONUS FABER PRODUCT WITHOUT PROOF OF PURCHASE FROM A SUMIKO AUTHORIZED DEALER IN NORTH AMERICA ".

What a curious statement . Can you imagine Volkswagen refusing to provide parts for their own cars, no matter where they were bought? I do hope other distributors will follow. It would surely drive the prices down considerably on Audiogon for used gear.

Nonsense. I just bought some replacement drivers last week. No issues, no problems.

Did you try & make a purchase or did you just happen to read this today on their website?
Lots of conjecture & speculation above.

There are a few folks, including myself, who have responded to this thread to indicate we have been able to get parts and/or service with no problems.

If there is anybody who can give an example of being refused parts and/or service, that would certainly bring another facet to the question of yes, maybe or no.
