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.

I bought a pair of new Electa Amator II speakers about 7 years ago, and still love them. I purchased them directly over the internet from a high-end audio shop in Milan, which was happy to ship them to me in the states. They arrived in pristine, unopened condition.

But now this attitude of Sumiko's is outrageous, arrogant, and unacceptable. Sonus Faber should be happy customers for their products are excited, dedicated, and exist in any and all ways. I see these threatening Sumiko ads, and they disgust me. I have another system with Epos speakers that pleases me just as much, and this company is now my future. Goodbye Sonus Faber and your U.S. distributor with a serious attitude problem.
