Michael (& others),

I recently purchased a second-hand pair of ceramic 4.0's off someone here at audiocircle. They were shipped in the original boxes, and everything arrived intact except that the component board broke loose inside one of them and was rattling around during shipment. I removed the driver and after a visual inspection of the board, it looks OK but I have a couple of questions before I fire it up...

1. Is there anything specific I should look for in damage before firing it up? Any precautions in doing so?

2. What adhesive do you use at the factory to bond the board to the ceramic? (as you know, the board is quite heavy)

Thank you,
Randy

Nathan, peace.

Having said that... Michael, - if you're out there can you give me some advice here as to what you use for bonding the crossover board to the ceramic case or let me know who to contact at Norh?

Thank you!

Randy

I answered the customer's e-mail directly. I suggested that an easy way to do this is to use bathtub caulk. We use silicon or the expandable packing foam to support the crossover.

Done. Thank you.

I'm sure this is a common enough occurance to make this info useful to others.
