Their capital was only 42.250€, not 42 million; they were surviving product by product, and any misstep could spell the end of the whole endeavor. It’s a sorry state of affairs. France is not a good place to take risks - esp. not Paris. Or you need backup from an established structure instead if doing things indie like they did.Really sad to see them go. They made great products, but it looks like they were a little bit too ambitious. Wireless ANC is really hard to do, especially for a company of less than ten people. I hope my pair doesn't break too soon. They must have lost a lot of money seeing that they had a stock capital of 42 million euros.
I actually had an e-mail from Thomas on the 9th, they day after Aëdle entered liquidation, offering me to drop by to fix my unit. Something was off, I could tell - Thomas replied from Lucas’ address, and also I had inquired about the new set of batteries and the best time to return my unit and the reply was... evasive. I’m kicking myself for not going, but I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t have happened anyway.
@Monsieur Sans Honte if you know more about that mofo of a supplier I’d love to hear about them. PM me if you like. But I think they definitely deserve to be named and shamed.
