What is the status of Deltec Precision Audio (DPA)?

Does anyone (perhaps in Britain) know what is going on with Deltic Precision Audio and its CEO/designer Adrian Walker?  Their Facebook page continues to have updates, but I have tried to contact them/him numerous times without any response lately.  At his advice, I sent back an MA1 amplifier from the USA for repair, paid for the repair, and never got it back -- unbelievable!  My DPA system is lacking one channel, and it looks like it always will.

Kim, DPA is defunct, unfortunately.  There is no official service — best to hope that a hifi service tech near you can diagnose the problem and get the necessary parts.

This is for Tom Whelan:

Tom, I understand that Joe Walsh, who purchased the remaining DPA stock including my amplifier, has contacted you about finishing the service on my MA-1.  Is that correct?  I'm willing to pay for your work, of course.  Please let me know the status of this?

Thanks!

Peter

A sad situation and a cautionary tale for many of us.

Lost amp now back with owner who paid Adrian Walker £800 up front repair fee for work that was never done.

The amp was sent to me by Joe Walsh and I repaired the amp for £96 on a strict parts and postage basis, no charge for labour.

This sorry saga has lasted 4 years. But happily the amp is back home Stateside working quite well or so I have been told.
