My dealer relayed the following story.
ML's quality has been very unreliable and was hidden to many at Harman. Once discovered they turned to Proceed which also has/had problems in many areas. Therefore, Proceed is no more and ML has lost control. Lexicon, which has been doing extremely well in QA, sells volume and product management is the "model" to adapt. Many heads rolled and a high ranking Lexicon officer has taken the lead role in the restructure.
Revel and Lexicon have been doing well and Revel is replacing the M20 with the M22, the F30 with the F32 and so on. The new models are similar to the current F50/F30 models in appearance and will receive a cost increase. The F30 alone will add $1000 per pair, but will have a solid grill cover ala.F50 and be reduced in size (should help WAF).
Either way, I still love my F30s!
