Just purchased a SBAcoustics Mandolin Kit after lots of research and comparing from the nice people in Michigan. After ordering I had called to check on the order and Mark told me it was shipping that day, it takes a few day for them to solder and put together the parts and cross over. I didn't realize the crossover was built by them and that kinda freaked me out as I have seen many cross overs built by others that I would of been ashamed of.:eek: Well the next morning, as I was walking out of the garage to see the brown dude Drop the package on the ground and kinda kicks it up to the door , ring the bell and then trots back to his wagon and peels out to next DROP. My wife opens the door and snags the box before I could get to it, another near miss.. I finally get the box in my hands and cruz back to my hide out and look the box over and notice that the box is all beat up and I was a little worried about my new toys.
I used my pocket knife to slit the well thought out tape job and started unpacking the box. To my suprize the first thing was two Styrofoam pieces and lots off nice packing, everything was still in perfect condition, a testament to someone who cared about his job and me! There was even a hand full of mints!? NICE. Enclosed is a nice letter letting me know that if anything happens or I have any questions or problems to call them and the"ll be happy to help. I get the driver out and and dig another white box out and open it up to find the cross overs, ports,wires, screws, binding posts, and blue prints for the cabinet all nice and neatly packed. So far so good now to inspect the cross over that worried me so. They were shrink wrapped, all fore have there own board the way I would have done, the lay out is well thought out a simple, soldering is nice too. Both woofer and tweeter boards are marked very clearly with NO room for wondering what goes where, and I was looking forward to building them by my self. To say the least I was very pleased with everything about this kit so far! Heck, I even got a refund on the shipping as the true cost was a little less than quoted.
