Agreed, I was an owner of a BB and was fortunate enough to sell it. I was looking forward to the BBII as I really enjoyed the BB, but after empty promises and lack of communication I can’t see myself taking another chance/risk w/ Mytek.
I wish them nothing but success moving forward, but the damage is done, my .02.
Havent heard a word in months
Communication back & forth after complaint looked promising sadly another toothless government agency have little faith anything will come from it
Btw, as of Dec 2022 Mytek STILL has Not delivered BB2 they started accepting payments for Feb 2021
Quote from their web-page: BB2 will be shipping to prebooked customers first. There is a backlog. As of now, BB2 ordered here today will be shipped in February of 2023 (updated Jan 6, 2023)

Couldn’t find any info if people got their Brooklyn Bridge (or Empire) yet. I wonder why any “audiophile magazine” wouldn’t write about this. Seems like this whole hobby is plagued with scams, either audiofoolery or money grabs. Mytek was once a name in the industry, now this…
I knew there was a reason I was following this thread, and this comment is it. You win.
In case this bit of American history isn’t broadly known, here’s the reference. The association between Mytek and this story is now permanently established in my brain.
Thanks for sharing. When you are no English native (or extremely well educated of course you probably don’t get the relation. I didn’t. Interesting stuff, haha.
In US English idiom, a common expression of incredulity about a claim is “if you believe that, I’ve got a bridge to sell you!” Easily applicable to buyers of $10k AC power cords that improve warmth and soundstage width and depth.
I was not specifically familiar with Parker, though.
