| UPS. Friend Or Foe? Sorry to hear your'e going thru this. IMO they both suck. Each company 'lost' an expensive integrated amplifier during shipment ... somehow. However, to Fedex's credit they are quicker to process claims. UPS customer service is the WORST to dea... | |
| Japanese Luxman Integrated Amps my Japanese 505 - flawless, sold it within 1 day, (multiple offers) to upgrade to the 550. I believe my converter failed with the 550 after about a year but not sure but the unit wouldn’t turn on. I sent it to George Meyer in LA for repair. Th... | |
