As some may know I had 2 SS SVS subs delivered that were dropped, dropped real hard actully by UPS. Here is the first removed driver, The TV-12 or "ultra" driver. This thing is a monster, I weighed it for the hell of it at 40.4 pounds. The voice coil is unreal, anyhow, tell me they did not thrash these drivers. The other one is just as bad, if not worse, I have not pulled it yet.

dude, if you need to borrow my Ruger .45, you just let me know. thats the kinda crap that makes people go on killing sprees. i think UPS might find themselves with a few vacancies if they fouled up my subs like that.

geez louise.. it looks like the delivery man used the sub as a trampoline!

I was thinking my Ruger MK-ll (22 cal) slab side with the screw-in silencer, and the laser red-dot scope. No noise, I can't listen to any speakers in jail. Blowing the dust of my Colt phython 357 magnum might just be easier, thanks for the offer though, I'll say yes if it has your finger prints on it. LOL. The whole accident is getting worked out. UPS sent their "investigator" here this morning for the insurance damage claim.

Well, The way they package them, with dense rubber like quarter circles, kinda like half moons that go around the whole cylinder is great for protection. You have to almost try to damage them. If you drop an 80 pound speaker on concrete, somethings gonna give. So if you don't have a total idiot, you will be fine.

*drops his 140lb PB2-Plus on everyone*

Death from above!

IF my sub had shown up like that, I would've broken down and creid like a little girl....

I'm glad it showed up with only a little dent in the box.
