I heard today for the first time from some guys back from CEDIA that Bain definitely bought D&M. This is from a Marantz dealer who is highly pissed about Bain going to distributorship with Marantz where it can be sold to anyone with a contracting license. Or, should I say possibly former Marantz dealer. I was shocked, I thought something of this magnitude would be all over the internet but I haven't seen anything. I know there's mixed views here on where gear should be sold but muddying up marketing is bad, take a look at TEAC for best, worst case scenario. I hate to see it just as Marantz has started making themselves known as a high quality product again. Bain also owns Burger King and Duncan Donuts. Care for a donut with that amp? You really have to wonder what will come of McIntosh. All of this may come to mean nothing, but you hate to see a company with a heritage like Mac end up where it is.

It was hard finding anything of concrete, you all may have better luck. It is a done deal though.

Wow, these comments are very interesting. Bain's found Mitt Romney? And you think our country isn't being ran by corporate America? Best Buy selling musical instruments? At least Bain is U.S., wouldn't be nice if we actually manufactured stuff in the U.S. again?
