It's more like an impotent product line-up issue. Grundig has sort of been waning for years and hasn't had a decent line of actual HiFi systems since the early 80's. I'm sure these speakers are fantastic--I have a set of original Audioramas from the 70's when Grundig was one of few speaker manufacturers who made their own parts, e.g. the speakers inside the speaker.Nevertheless, I think your headline is a bit misleading, because they truly have nothing in their line that is appropriate for these speakers, so I'm not sure how the response could have been any different. Perhaps less curt maybe? Not sure how this is a “customer service” issue. It’s more like an impotent product line-up issue.
