I find this whole sorry affair so annoying and yet I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t entirely predictable.
The dilemma now is does one send off parts to be serviced at Kentucky never to see them again if the place suddenly shuts down?
I’ve watched their website and social networking with a growing sense of horror. Quite unbelievable how they’ve veered so far from what the Thiel name is all about. Bluetooth speakers for goodness sake...
They initially relaunched with a clearly overpriced and profoundly unoriginal speaker range that threw out every one of Jim’s design ideals. Total commercial suicide.
If if it weren’t for the fact that I’m passionate about helping to keep Jim’s legacy alive by maintaining my CS 3.5s, I’d actually say good riddance to this sad apology for an audio manufacturer.
I thought I’d seen every form of incompetence in over 30 years in commerce, but this woeful bunch are rewriting the rule book on stupidity in business.
We just have to hope they are bought out by someone who understands and will honor the legacy.
