Strange Products? (Read 4614 times)

stone_of_tone Seasoned Member Listen Often/Listen Deep Posts: 3217	Strange Products? 11/05/11 at 16:57:04 Whom do you think buys this stuff? Those that do IMO deserve the circuit board to fry out in 2 months with no service and nobody to call? Stone Circuit board(s).......yea. http://www.ebay.com/itm/YAQIN-New-MC-10L-MC-10T-Integrated-Tube-Amplifier-BK-/25...

I forget the product line but seem to remember it was Cayin or something similar that had an amp with a regulator tube that had power to the filiments but the amp functioned the same when it was removed.
I think I heard that here. I believe everyone deserves a fair shake but come on, as said would you buy a car with no dealer or parts network?

In fairness, there is some very good stuff to be bought through non-traditional distribution channels. I waited months for a custom built DAC from Malaysia. It was a beautifully built Promitheus unit, and it's what I wanted. Direct BTO and shipment from Malaysia. If anything went wrong with it……….wouldn't want to be there, but what I got was so good, that I would consider it again. Lots of decent stuff sold out of Hong Kong from reliable reputable dealers. Over on Head-Fil, some of this stuff out of Hong Kong is very popular, even with the acknowledged failure/repair risk.

The copy writing here and the product are just comical. Lost in translation is an understatement. The sad part is this has persisted for years now. Stone of Tone
