SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUES
(14th May 2026)
Finding the balance between using the best components and at the best price is a challenge for any manufacturer, even a micro-business like Plasma Music Limited. Buying components directly from the manufacturer can often be the cheapest option but recently, cost seems to be irrelevant.
It seems that recent global events have caused some supply chain disruptions. I've had a couple of orders for AC/DC converters outstanding for some time now and today Vigortronix has informed me that some items for my orders won't be in until 16th June. 😒
Sometimes when a supplier is out of stock of an item I need and I have customer orders for systems that require that item, I'll buy from another supplier, even if the price is higher. Keeping my customers happy and respecting their orders is paramount. On this occasion however, no one seems to have stock of the Vigortronix converters that I need.
Please bear this in mind when ordering from my online store. The situation is frustrating but there's not a lot I can do. Despite that, I apologise for any inconvenience.
I enjoy keeping my customers and visitors up-to-date with what I’m up to and the engagement that I receive in return really makes it all very worthwhile. If you want to read more about products, fixes, references and me, then please don't hesitate to visit my archives…
