My Coincident Dynamo - good news, bad news

Hi everyone,

Good news: The unit is not humming.

Bad news: The unit is completely dead.

Waiting to see what Coincident will do. Been over two months since I originally placed the order. 8 weeks of that time it's been in shipping and return shipping. A week or so in repair shop, and I've listened to it for a total of about 30 minutes. Now it's dead. Let's hope they make it right.

Thanks again for all the suggestions.

Best, Scott

Time for a brand new unit and let the builder sort out your noisy and now broken one. I would ask for them to send you a new unit ASAP.

Sorry to hear about your problems. Hopefully a new unit will be on the way early this week!

I know I'll catch flac for this but I'd ask for a refund and look elsewhere. Why do we purchase pieces with poor reliability issues?

Anybody can get a lemon. I had a new lemon Cary tube amp. Israel builds some of the best gear available at any price & will take care of you, relax. I just took delivery of a new Dynamo last week & it's dead silent & sounds great out of the box. I've owned his speakers since 2005 that I bought new & they aren't leaving.

I trust Coincident will make things right. The Dynamo is a fabulous unit. Best, be patient.
