the guy from whom i purchased my unit no longer represents wadia. even when he did, he had no service department anyway. and as i explained, in the past, i have had no difficulty contacting wadia (for example, i had previously contacted them to get a replacement part). that's why the current difficulties seemed so suspicious. the reason why i posted on audiogon is because i wanted to get a sense of whether other people have had the same problem with wadia. after all, a lot of these high end audio makers are shoe-string operations that are susceptible to cash flow crises. so when i had problems even getting someone from the sales department to answer a call, i started to wonder about what was going on at wadia.
frankly, it never occurred to me to contact some dealer from whom i didn't buy the unit because the warranty is written from wadia to me - as the warranty is written, i am the one who is responsible for getting the product to wadia.
