CEntrance@CEntrance so you are saying you never refused @Massdrop to replace my defective unit?
As the reply I got states something else:
Going forward, the only options available are to wait for the new drop to ship from us as the vendor will include your replacement with that order, or cancel your order for a refund. Again, the vendor will NOT ship us a single item, regardless of it being a warranty item, and they are not giving us many options.
This is what Massdrop informed me, can you clarify that when you say you support how?

ApolloSharpActually it seems like CEntrance was being helpful and that there was an issue with Massdrop communication and or lost emails with CEntrance. How does this make Schiit better? Are you claiming Schiit has better customer service? To air some Schiit... I had a problem with compatibility between a couple Schiit devices and only them with digital noise issues hooked up on the same rig with exhaustive details on setup/ rig and diagrams cable specs etc. and after a few emails never got a resolve more than generic tech support responses essentially blaming my system when in fact other devices were fine only the Schiit were causing excessive digital noise together. Oh yeah they sell a Wyrd for USB interface design shortcomings. I suggested it be forwarded to Jason and Mike and I certainly didn't get Mr Moffet or Mr Stoddard replying saying we will dig in further and help you resolve it.
I know with Schiit you only get voicemail and have to email them for support but when I called CEntrance pre-purchase I was immediately answered during business hours by a very knowledgeable person who answered all my questions including an extremely technical one. Maybe I was extremely lucky but I do not understand what championing Schiit or defaming Phillips has to do with this particular problem between CEntrance, MD and this customer.

ApolloSharpIs it possible that the customer made an error? I find it hard to believe that CEntrance customer service just deletes or ignores emails. Perhaps you should stop giving advice about something that has nothing to do with you and you weren't involved with.

tedhershSince I'm a paying audiophile consumer who has to decide the best way to spend his money, I would say it very directly concerns me, so I'm gonna go ahead and give all the advice I want to give, and first and foremost is beware of any company who isn't 100% serious about customer service. Perhaps you should research your purchases more wisely.

Masstedhersh has decided he does not want to do his homework. Just a quick glance through CEntrance product reviews on Amazon reveals that this hasn't been the first time their customer service has failed entirely. Perry Patetic reviewed the CEntrance AxePort Pro Blue and recounts his experience with customer service ignoring his email, and N. Plagman reviewed the CEntrance MicPort Pro, in the comments recounting how he was ignored by customer service.
If a company doesn't care enough about their customers to make things right, then I refuse to do business with that company. I will not buy a product from CEntrance knowing there's a possibility I'll just be ignored and left out to dry.

ApolloSharpNope, you are not ignored. Don't feel that way because of something you read online. We have shipped over 20,000 products worldwide in our 16+ years in business so we've seen and actually tried to help every kind of customer. No company will have a 100% track record, but CEntrance is different because we actually listen, learn and continuously improve.
If YOU personally have any issues, please email to info at CEntrance dot com or call 847-581-0500. We are ready to help.
Don't hesitate to let us know if you have any other comments!

ApolloSharpThank you for your passionate comments. We value all feedback because it allows us to learn and improve. We would be especially interested in your feedback on the actual product, as you are a detail-oriented individual, who spends a lot of time on research and has a literary gift for parabolic narrative. We notice that you have joined Massdrop relatively recently and have only participated in one drop so far, so your caution is understandable. But keep in mind that thousands of other customers have had a great experience with our products and we go to great lengths to make sure they are fully satisfied. We are positive that once you experience the CEntrance difference first hand, you will become a devotee.

ApolloSharpI'm not too happy about how long it's taken CEntrance to get the Windows 10 driver finalized, but overall, my personal experience with CEntrance customer service has been above average for a small company, and way above average compared to the pathetic excuse for support from many larger companies these days. I've emailed support at both Fiio and Iriver about their players I own, and never gotten a reply from either of them. And I doubt their CEOs have ever participated in user forums like the CEntrance CEO does here.

ApolloSharpApolloSharp:
Wow I thought your name was familiar, You just double trolled me in another forum. I guess I have a not so secret fan. No wonder your profile comments are set to "private".
First off I am not a "Shill" for CEntrance or any other company for that matter. (Extremely insidious accusation questioning my integrity as well as that of CEntrance)
I am a new customer and if you actually understood my questioning of CEntrance it was in fact very harsh initially. My recounting actual customer service experience was factual and was only said to give perspective from another customer as it seems another was having communication issues.
I myself recently got their DACport HD but my due diligence in selecting it has greatly paid off. DACport HD is a Phenomenal sounding piece of gear subjectively. Closest thing to analog direct wire in a DAC I've personally experienced at home.
Why exactly are you here hassling CEntrance when as far as I can tell by your comments on this thread you are not even their customer ApolloSharp. People like you are the reason why COMPANY owners do not typically get involved in forums.
Many of us on Massdrop like having access to a "Chief Designer" so we can get Important Technical questions answered that often times even "Tech support can not answer".
ApolloSharp, your antagonizing non productive regurgitation of ill informed ludicrous non-factual information (Amazon is your reliable source?) and commentary presence is becoming an embarrassment not only to yourself but Massdrop itself.
ApolloSharp you said earlier, "Guess I'll stick to Schiit" but it really seems to stick to you.

SomeTechNoobI came to check it out, did some research, made one comment and CEntrance and a bunch of other people flew into a frenzy without actually addressing any of the points I made (bad to non-existent customer service). I think, I don't know, one guy wrote me like 12 paragraphs which I'm definitely not going to read. Maybe he secretly works for the company and addressed why customers routinely don't hear back from/are straight up ignored by CEntrance. I don't know.

CEntranceJust an update on this thread for everyone I still don't have my item nor my money. Massdrop says they will send me the item when CEntrance sends it and CEntrance says they have shipped but they are not in agreement with Massdrop to ship it directly so they can't do anything. So in short I am screwed. Massdrop is unresponsive now and last reply I got from CEntrance's Austin was 2 weeks ago stating he will inquire from Massdrop on what's going on, till now no further information. I had shipped the item back in December and I have been waiting since then for the item

HarsainCould you please state the issue? I honestly don't remember, it's been over a year. Of course we will support you, but you need to say what's wrong. I emailed you last week but you have not responded to my email. Please respond so we can resolve this. -- Michael Goodman, CEntrance.
Update: Just re-read the 2 year old comments on the thread. You said you were offered a refund from Massdrop. Did you take the refund? What's the actual issue at the moment?

ApolloSharpLet us know what happened and we will help. I'm sorry to hear that someone wrote 12 paragraphs to you. They are likely a CEntrance supporter, like many others, but I'm pretty sure they don't work for us. We are a small shop and just don't have that kind of time on our hands :)
By the way, the latest Windows 10 audio drivers are pretty good and a dedicated CEntrance driver is no longer required.
