Wow. (Again.)
Y'all are some reactionary @$$ MoFos.
Don't get me wrong, it's surprising... and I completely get the potential of problems.
At the same time... How many times have some of these brands changed Ownership? And survived.
Let's not lose sight of the fact Denon has achieved some of the most consistently high measurements from ASR for AVRs while going from owner to owner.
The proof will be in the pudding.
This years gear should be announced soon (*fingers crossed), and since taking last year off D&M have had 2 years to work the kinks out of their new models.
The new Polk and DefTech Speakers have all looked pretty good and measure well. B&W is B&W (*siezure inducing eye roll).
We can be afraid, or we can see what comes of this.
I think more importantly this wasn't taken over by a capital acquisitions company that specialize in dismantling and selling off corporate pieces.
I'm going to take the wait and see approach. The sky isn't falling until it's actually falling.
