Availability of Wadia


I called my local dealer a couple of weeks ago concerning the availability of Wadia 861. Thay said they had no idea when they'll get the unit. I emailed Wadia afterwards, it took Wadia over two weeks to reply to me, referring me back to my dealer !
Does anyone know what's going on with Wadia products these days ? Instead of spending $8000 on a 861 I am now inclining to buy a cheaper SACD machine like the Sony SCD-777ES instead. Can anyone advise please. Thanks.

Someone else told of Waidia's slow email response. Please call them on the phone and keep us posted. Thanks..
Copy of message from Wadia: The Wadia 301 is discussed on the Wadia website on the following page:

Please visit the Wadia site to obtain the most up to date information available on technology. Thank you for your inquiry.
I received a reply from Wadia yesterday, 13 days after I sent my second email. They said there is a 4 week backlog of orders for the 861, and don't have a firm release date for the 301 yet.
