I doubt that's how it went down, if you can't get in touch with Mark or Aaron, you are doing something wrong. They respond to my emails and calls within hours sometimes minutes. Which amp did you order?

That's the first thing you should have done was file a claim against UPS.

I received a big amp from Fedex, and I realized the box was wet when I got it. Fedex told me to fill a claim immediately, and they took pictures of the package. (I received the amplifier at their office). Hopefully the amp was not wet, only the packaging, so everything worked fine. I did not fill no claim. How can you blame SSA for a shipping issue ? Isn't it UPS problem ? There is something or someone wrong somewhere !

You should know better if it comes wet file a claim with ups. Not try and use it first and then have problems. If I receive a delicate package wet I go right to ups first.

I will be ordering hlcd's aswell in a couple weeks likely. Let me know how yours sound, your going to love them if you havent ever ran any yet. Great progress so far!

Recones permitting I'll be going as well. If I can't I'll sabotage an amp before you leave fucker!

Nice to see a local shop with good pricing! J

I bet he's trying to say that they are good woofers for being the bottom line.

That's OSB (Advantech flooring). Ooooooh, flexy. Have you actually done any testing with it? How many layers? How much eopxy or polyester resin did you use between layers? On the surfaces? When you built the identical box with whatever material you think is better what were the SPL numbers on each box? If you haven't used that material or done direct A to B comparison or at least talked to someone who has you should probably STFU when it comes to things about which you know nothing. Also this thread isn't to start a pissing contest aboutf lumber, but to show off my Zed amp build in the Zed sub-forum. Wow, that hit a nerve. lmao

I have spoke with you twice this week. Crescendo has spoken to you numerous times, telling me different versions then your telling us, you are clearly trying to play Crescendo against SSA to get a free amp, all because you hooked up a wet amp against your better judgement. Let UPS claims sort this out like I told you yesterday on the phone ("Dodging" you), and it will get resolved when they cut us a check, end of story. If you are sick of us because we have policies and don't just give $300 amps away, I am truly sorry, but to be honest, we are sick of your games, we don't need a customer like you. Sorry to be so harsh, but enough is enough, you try and act like this is our fault? UPS will take care of it, end of story.

Curious why the delivery driver did not put it in a dry area or even put it in a plastic bag if it was raining when delivered. I have packages from ups and FedEx every day rain or shine and they have always done their part to keep it dry if it was raining.

On mine, I used a dremel with a spiral cutting bit as suggested above, used liberal amounts of damping material on the back side, and also used a piece of 1/2"mdf on the backside for the screws to have something to bite to. I'll try to get pics tonight and post them if you would like to see. The difference was noticable from the damped pair to my undamped pair, those buzzed like a hive full of bees.

I believe that #3 in your picture is copper clad aluminium and the other two are solid copper. Thus the reason for the visual size difference.
