AUDIO RESEARCH-WHERE ARE THEY GOING

Actually I meant "they" may have have a power outage. It
appears I have the power outage.

Leonard was the best. However, if you can't get a hold of Calvin ask for Chris Osanna. I have talked to Leonard many times and if he was not available i would ask for Chris.

I've called 2-3 times in the last several months about KT120s for my VT200, whether there would be an SE for the CD8 (no), and sending my Ref 3 back for a new display. Prompt answer of the phone and either direct connection or a very quick call back. Informative, engaged, and helpful people. There will never be another Leonard, but that's a different story....

I've known Kalvin Dahl for over 30 years. And Warren Gehl, Doug Wright... they are part of the core group of audiophiles that I hung with for literally decades and they are good people. I've known other people there for 20-25 years and I have a great deal of respect for all of them.

This is a good organization and very successful, like you need to hear that from me :) They are also keeping quite busy! As I understand it, the Italian company that bought them also bought Wadia and has moved the Wadia concern to the same building here in town. I know that act has kept them jumping, but I am confident that they are on a good course.

Well I did get a hold of Calvin and got the part ordered and to give credit told me he was so busy doing inventory that it was just a bad day.....Of course nobody told me about the inventory untel later........Anyway I love my Audio Research (20 pieces)and will maintain it as long as I can buy parts for it.....I also talked to the Wadia person, Jeff ....He was also quite a lot of help, So maybe Audio Research is still the great place it always was.....
