Replacement pair arrived today, I'm still at work so I haven't tried them out yet, but they are at least a different (and newer) serial # then the ones I sent in. This pair is serial sz9-2251.
Congrats on the new build - I have the previous generation Sabertooth board haven't had any issues with it. I went with one of Corsair's Obsidian line of cases, best decision I made for the whole build as it's very very quiet. Doing normal tasks I barely even know it's on.
Yeah Panasonic is leaving the plasma business in March 2014. Not sure what that would mean for repairs of any current models, I guess we'll have to wait and see.
I hoping the Pirates win tonight, I think Cole will be fine but the offense concerns me. Still a remarkable season for the Pirates even if they lose tonight, 20 years of futility is finally behind them.
Just hope your pair doesn't have or develop the channel imbalance issue that's going around. My pair developed it after a little while, I've been waiting 6 weeks for my replacement set. From what I can tell based on limited available info the channel imbalance issue has existed since the 009 were first introduced. They supposedly stopped production a year and half in to "fix" the issue but it clearly still hasn't been fixed. No one really knows what causes it and Stax doesn't say shit about it.
Congrats Vicki! Dogs are a ton of fun, as mentioned he could be a nice play toy for Ivan. Dogs are also quite a bit more work than cats, but you are in Florida so you don't have to deal with the letting the dog out when there's 10" of snow thing.
Hmm actually this is one of those things that tapatalk had initially turned on by default without telling anyone. So when I noticed it I turned it off - Dan complained about it but eh it was just Dan so I didn't care. I'll go ahead and turn it back on since it seems that you guys were using it as well.
Good riddance, though it would have been more fitting had they stuck him in gen. pop with the rest of the prisoners and let them beat the shit out of him.
