I am QUITE sure that if I were in your position (of not even wanting to play it in its' current state because it crashes all the time), I would have LONG ago returned it to the dealer, and when he tells me 'an OS fix is going to fix it' I'll tell him he can sell me another one when it DOES work to my satisfaction.
The dealer can quite easily return the unit as a warranty claim and get HIS money back... Your warranty is with the manufacturer, NOT the dealer. And if he handles enough warranty claims, you can be SURE he will light a far more effective rocket under Ketron, by telling them he won't order any more until it IS fixed.
If THAT don't make them fix it, it can't be fixed...
Get your money back IN FULL. You have better warranty protection in the UK than we get over here. What is it, one year? You are inside that. Get your money back, move on, revisit the purchase again once Ketron fixes everything (or brings out an Audya2
).
Why should YOU take a loss on it? It NEVER worked. And now a lot more people know about the issues. Best of luck getting anywhere NEAR what you payed for it on the used market, now the facts are out there...
If this were a dishwasher, you'd have taken it back LONG ago.Diki,
Look you are right I can't argue with you, but Jonny is right also I have waited too long now and this would not be good if it ever can to court. I have waited because I had the PA2x to play and that’s my fault. If it was a dishwasher I wouldn't have two, one to fall back on so a faulty dishwasher would have gone straight back, that wasn't a good parallel to pick, in fact nothing is a good parallel to a second KB. I am going to have to bite the bullet and wait for OS4. I have however just dropped my dealer an email saying I want my money back, I will keep you all posted what happens.
Tony
