It can be frustrating.

Let me be the first for saying "Thank you" to you. Yes, THANK YOU!

You are getting all of the Murphy's Law, "exceptions to the rule", and just plain bad luck so that the rest of us (knock on wood) can continue to have our good experiences.

Oh, and don't forget, these are shipping from another country, so customs is involved. Amazon can't do 2 day shipping through customs. You just never know when the government is going to "sit" on a package or not.

I get it. but thats life. I dropped 600.00 on a phono preamp and it hasn't worked right from day one. Will cost me in excess of $100 to send it back. And the worst is they could send it back and it may or may not be fixed then what.So hey we all go through stuff like this.

A man once told me -- cheer up things could be worse
I cheered up and they were.

Well, I got my wire adapters they overnighted to me. But, they only sent me 2 instead of the 4 I need since I got a double woofer replacement. Here we go again...

VoicOfReason,

You only require the two adaptors. We changed our negative terminals from 110 to 250. The positive terminal remains the same at 205. The adaptor converts the 110 female connector on the end of the negative wire coming from your crossover to a 250 female connector. I hope this helps.

Yea, I was going to say the same thing that I would have anticipated only needing 2 adapters, but then again, the woofers aren't sitting in front of me...
