RE: Before You Buy a SimAudio Product

"Tough luck. You should have thought about that 17 years ago LOL." Brilliant!

Now, for those who are not encumbered with an overwhelming and misguided sense of brand loyalty, consider this; the bottom line is Sim Audio has positioned themselves as the sole-source of all repairs on their products. Don't obfuscate the facts...this has nothing to do with modifications, has less to do with the cost of shipment, and has nothing to do with, "...everyone else does it so why shouldn't Sim Audio" (which is pure rubbish...many manufacturers still employ a network of authorized repair shops). It has everything to do with the fact that you are entrusting one facility with the service of your expensive equipment. Sim Audio is not a charity...they haven't positioned themselves as the sole-source of repair because of some sense of altruism for the customers...they do it because the make more money. They can charge whatever they please because no one can make an informed comparison between cost effective or otherwise. The alternative to their services does not exist. Now, considering the last sentence as fact (stipulated by Mr. Poulin), how can anyone be certain they are receiving a proper cost effective repair from Sim Audio? If it makes noise, your happy? Some of us have a higher standard.
