Sooooooooooo, my speaker was taken into the shop today, and the service guy calls me back an hour later to tell me the problem is it's missing a gold plated connector (shown below) on the speaker's binding post.



Yeah, really, that's it. 35 effin dollars just to effin tell me that. FML.

Moral or the story- DON'T BECOME A QUADRIPLEGIC BECAUSE YOU CAN'T DIAGNOSE PROBLEMS CLOSE TO THE FLOOR UNLESS YOU PURPOSELY PUT YOURSELF THERE FOR A LOT LONGER THAN IT WOULD TAKE TO SOLVE ANYTHING!

The only reasonable argument for owning a gun is to protect yourself from the police.
