Hi John. I just wanted to briefly add that we had completely polar experiences.

Soundpros were forthright about the fact that the "warranty" on my purchase is provided only by their store, not the manufacturer.

As a Canadian, most of the real "deals" I find, that are offered by USA retailers or on ebay, carry no warranty protection, either implied or expressed. So, I'll hope that the item I receive is solid and reliable, and if it happens to fail, I have an avenue available from which I can attempt to obtain a replacement or repair.

Also, I must have emailed eight times, with various questions. The person I dealt with never once tried to rush me or use any other pressure tactic.
