Is Spectron Audio "Dead or Alive"?


Spectron had not been returning email or phone msgs over the last couple of months to dealers or customers, and emails are now being returned "failed delivery". Has anyone made contact with John or Toni at Spectron recently? Has anyone received new product (M3 or M3d) lately? Seems only the website is new and improved!

disappointingly, they have promised several new products since late last year. Poor quality control, poor business management and failure to repond quickly to a fast and ever changing marketplace has doomed Spectron.
Having product made in China or making new promises on delivery dates will not breathe life into this sick company.
Sadly, the owners have poured their hearts and souls into keeping this sinking ship afloat to no avail. My hope is, they can turn it around and get back to business but I truly doubt they can make it happen.
With the launch of a few "first batch" Musician III's last January and a trail of unhappy buyers, I'll sit on the sidelines a while until reliable product and corporate responsiveness can be improved and assured.
My suggestion, try contacting a Spectron dealer for feedback on the state of affairs with Spectron. Better yet contact Spectron via email or phone. BTW, I've got a Musician II for sale,,, anyone interested?
Good luck!

What, they are out of business? Wow. That sucks. I have had the Musician III on order for awhile now. I better call them again and see what is up. I just talked to John a week and a half ago. He said they were making last minute changes to the new amp.
Too bad. I guess I did the right thing to buy three stereo CarverPro ZR1600 for less than half what one stereo Spectron would have cost. Perhaps my case is representative of Spectron's problem. They need to understand that the greatest advantage of digital technology is performance equivalent to analog AT DRAMATICALY LOWER COST.
