TRAGEDY STRIKES - relief on the way...

[basite]

a good ending with a bad post mike, but hey, you're not deaf yet, so everything's fine

btw, maybe the speakers were fused, so only a fuse needs to be replaced...

and:

Has anyone ever given this kind of service before?

well, kind of: tragedy also struck me, also with a happy ending. My beloved Mcintosh had a slightly weak left channel, so I took it back to the dealer (after letting him know what the problem was), there we listened to the Mac and they called to the distributor, asking what to do...

they had to send it over to the distributor, but since the screws attaching the amp to the box were missing, someone from the distributor is coming to pick it up personally, so no shipping companies are involved. Then, it's in for service, normally, for a 10 year old product, I would have to pay the costs, but since I got a warranty from the dealer, I get to pay nothing, the amp is being looked at & repaired at no charge

the dealer even asked me wether I needed an amp to temporarily replace the Mac

Keep them spinning,
Bert.

Now that's good service...

Ok, 2 things:

1. GMichael I gotta give you respect for having the guts to even post your mishap. Most people would be too embarrassed or ashamed, even though I am sure we have all done stupid things in the world of audio.

2. Dang. GMichael....I can't believe that happened. Geesh. At least things are being taken care of, but I am sure you about had a heart attack.

This thread wasn't posted to show how stupid I can be, even though that comes through clearly. My main reason was to show how great AV123 is taking care of me. It's a rare thing to see this kind of service these days. (Although it looks like basite is getting some good service now as well. Sorry to hear about your trouble basite. Glad they're taking care of you)
The other reason was for others to see how these test CD's can be harmful in the wrong hands. Causion is required.
Yes, PS. I did pannic at first. But that was quickly replaced by depression. After all, I did it to myself.
