My experience with Harmon Luxury Group is that their service and support leaves a lot to be desired.
Harman To Acquire B&W, Denon, Polk And Marantz From Masimo In $350 Million Deal
just saw the above announcement--of particular note is that masimo paid over a billion for the same brands just a few years ago. not sure whether harman will add any value--they've neither hurt nor helped revel or arcam--or what this move indicates about the consumer audio market generally, but this doesn't bode well for the future.

@llg98ljk that is to be expected in a space that think it is a big thing when we’re a niche within a niche. To put how small we’re as a subset of audio, AirPods Pro 2, AirPods 3, and AirPods Max alone gave Apple almost 22 billion in revenue for 2024 Apple could’ve bought All of so-called Hi-Fi, Mid-Fi and Lo-Fi companies in our little pocket of audio and all they have to use is revenue from 2024 alone But hey let us keep arbitrary metrics up |
The only items I own in the list is some vintage JBL drivers out of some beaten up cabs.....'mid-fi' for them, LE-08's, 'empty' cabs with minimal padding, no internal structure...got the interior dimensions, everything including the ports.... No, I won't 'Walsh' them....I have some scruples...;) I do wonder who bailed Ohm out when they went up for sale....but I've my own variants on the pedigree, and don't mind being Jack v. the Giant..... "Practical Art Objects"....signed and limited to the versions produced. Sue me...win Nothing. Empty victories stink... ;) |
