Marantz. Two failed disc players, one after another. The DV9500 and the SA8260. Very disappointing. I’ll never buy a disc player from them again. And Audio Research. I bought an integrated (used, right here on Audiogon) that had a bad power supply. AR would not support the repair of the product. Never again.
Have you changed your mind about a brand? Was it you, or them?
I've changed my mind about many things. Beer for instance. Now I can really only drink IPAs and dark beers. Lagers? Phooey. This is very different than what I drank in my 20s though.
Same for audio gear.
So let me ask all of you, are there brands or equipment you've changed your mind about, for better or worse? And if so, why? It doesn't have to be a brand, it can be a TYPE or technology.
For instance, I used to love Ti and Be tweeters. Now usually can't listen to them.
What about you?
