Just a sidebar. I work in the service department for a company that sells professional photographic equipment. We often deal with FedEX and UPS with claims for damage that occurs during shipping.
The FedEX guy was telling me how carefully stuff has to be packed, because when a package hits the bumper stop at the end of one of those sorting conveyors, it can be exposed to as much as 11 G's !!! Lots of inertia there! It seems to be a minor miracle that stuff comes undamaged at all, anymore. 73 de Larry W2LJ - Vivat Morse! © ® [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.qsl.net/w2lj ARRL Lifemember QRP ARCI #4488 NJQRP #47 FISTS #1469 QRP-L #778 FP #612 QRPp-I #759 ARS #1528, AmQRP, CQC #746 K1 #1647 - K2 #4090 for QRP Icom IC-751A for QRO Butternut HF9V and G5RV antennas Ron wrote: I suspect that it takes a huge "whack" to make the magnet bend the frame even though it is a fairly heavy magnet and a simple stamped metal frame. It was probably bigger "whack" than the kit would experience being shipped, but it could have happened at any time before Elecraft got the speakers, or they could even be something not being caught at the factory. If I recall correctly, the speaker in my K2 came from China.
