I would have to say YBA . wasn't too happy with the selling of the company to a chinese firm and switching all the lower end equipment to china ( i believe Shanling bought the business). , but given the way of business these days it was probably required in order to keep the brand viable. Now the only really French hand built YBA gear is their top of the line Signature line, which unfortunelty is way out of my price range.
Have you changed your mind about a brand? Was it you, or them?
I've changed my mind about many things. Beer for instance. Now I can really only drink IPAs and dark beers. Lagers? Phooey. This is very different than what I drank in my 20s though.
Same for audio gear.
So let me ask all of you, are there brands or equipment you've changed your mind about, for better or worse? And if so, why? It doesn't have to be a brand, it can be a TYPE or technology.
For instance, I used to love Ti and Be tweeters. Now usually can't listen to them.
What about you?
