Guys this whole debacle has intrigued me so much that I have taken it upon myself to get personally involved. That's something I usually never do, but I just had to learn more. I put in a call to JenaLabs and had to leave a message with what I assume was a secretary. She assured me that someone would return my call. About 20 minutes later I received a call back from two JenaLabs technicians. After inquiring about the R-10 case in question I was hit by a barrage of unintelligible mumbo jumbo from one of them. The other was strangely silent. So the truth is I'm no closer to knowing what has transpired than you are. However even though the silent technician had nothing to say , he gave me an odd feeling that there was more to the situation than I was hearing from the other tech. Sorry I couldn't be more help, but I did discover that video conferencing is pretty cool.

Nate that wiring looks beautiful! If you'd like to see a badly wired amp as comparison look inside a McAlister.

But does he put them through a series of double blind testing?

Seems to be SOP these days.

He's very important you know! Just ask him, he'll tell you so. -
This thread rocks!

Slightly understated. I had to adjust my pants after looking at it!

If your little Sister is anything like my little Sister it wouldn't exactly be free considering all the money I've funneled her way. Still it's nice to have some payback, and that was very cool of her. I got a drink cozie with some Random bar name from my Sister once.

Wow! Just wow! It seems their customer service is right in line with there modifications. I'll be waiting for the story to be posted as well. That was my ALO dock that warrior posted about. Man that was a 13 rounder!

She's fully reinforced with dowels and biscuits. I could probably stand on the thing, but I won't attempt that.

Well that's what I did too, because I really have no plans to use it SE, however if I did plan to use it SE much I think I'd like the active ground.

If I remember correctly those hit the market many years back no? -
Hell I'm too easy of a target anyway!

That's about $200.00 per square inch. Must be good! -

Fixed that for ya, lest the boys in Blue come knockin' at your door.

Not true. Monday... four blocks over on the left side of the street. Tuesday... 13 blocks down on the right side of the street, because the street cleaners are coming. Wednesday... In front of your house! However you have a $350.00 ticket because they said the wheels weren't turned to the curb enough. Even though if you turned them any harder the steering wheel would crack and fall off. Thursday... Only eight blocks over, but that's a crack den neighborhood, so your wheels, tires and fenders are gone. Friday... 12 blocks to the East, but the guy who lives there said your bumper extended 1.2" into his driveway and had you towed. $500.00 impound fee, and the towtruck driver got pissed because you didn't have any Hank Williams Jr. CDs to steal, so he took a big crap on your drivers seat. Saturday... 16 blocks away, but Hillary Clinton was in town and might possibly be passing within 3 miles of your neighborhood, so the car was relocated overnight while you slept, so that her motorcade could have clear passage on a four lane street, but the city can't remember where they moved the 12 cars on that block to. They'll be happy to send you an email in 6 months or so once the car is located. Sunday... After taking out a loan you are able to buy a $50.00 Muni monthly pass. Problem solved.

Cool! When they don't work because they completely f-ed up the recable at least you can use them to pull your car out of the ditch on those wild Saturday nights.

He already does. Great rescue Alex, and an unbelievable story. Mike I completely agree, even if they had done a proper job of re cabling the R-10 those cables are damn fugly!

If he hasn't turned into a tube snob by then.

You have no intentions of building an amp! That's just your stash of Audio porn that you pull out when the misses is elsewhere. And it works too, I'm tentin' just lookin' at 'em.
-
Yeah Buddy!!! You got yourself one sweetheart of an amp there Voltron. It hasn't arrived yet I take it? We want to hear your impressions once it does! Although I have a pretty good idea what they'll be.
-
It's a frickin' awesome amp! What's to be nervous about? Heck even if USPS wiggled everything loose in shipping and it didn't work you'd still get major style points! OK that may have not helped your nervousness.

Mark half of the problem is that you're speaking to us like we aren't aware that what we say is noticed. Like we haven't had contact from manufacturers and the like. We're well aware. I fully understand that I could act a certain way and gather the interest of many companies to review there products or even find my way onto the payroll. I think most people that have written reviews, have a high post count and are noticed in the community have had some of those offers. I just don't choose to go down that road. I want this to be my hobby. I own a business that pays me quite well. This is where I go to dump the stress of running that business. In this hobby I want to be completely free to say whatever I want about a product. I understand that might have some ramifications to others, and I play pretty fair. I never crap on a product just for the sake of entertainment, nor will I sing praise that I don't really believe any given product deserves. Don't get me wrong, I'm not claiming you do any of these things, I'm just saying that's how I feel about getting involved in reviewing companies goods. I like you am an MOT, but my little side business of S
