I somewhat reluctantly sold and shipped my N2X pair to a fellow last week and they arrived, courtesy of Fedex, with the foil inductors in one speaker torn loose and thus not connected. 

He bought these assembled because he's not a DIY guy, so I'm looking for someone close to him that might be able to assist him in the repair, for my enduring thanks, a case of beer, etc.  If you can, could you drop me a PM or an email at: tubesguy _at_ gmail _dot_ com?  Thanks - Pat

HAL lives in Maryland and could make the repairs. You might see if he can help.

Thanks, Danny. I'll contact him. Ron has also offered help.

I live about 40 minutes from Columbia in Westminster, MD I could resolder - some wires no problem - free of charge

Are you guy's all set?  I'm in Arbutus, just 16 miles from Columbia. Let me know if I can help.

Looks like there are more people closer than me.  I am about 2 hours away.

If someone local cannot help, let me know.  I will be back from travel after 16 December.

Problem resolved, Rob was able to do the repairs himself.  Appreciate the kind offers of help.

I told Rob the problem was caused by my failure to tie down the foil inductors, no doubt because, as with every audio purchase, I believed that this was a final purchase, and I'd keep the speaks "forever" so no need to make them fit for shipping. Result? The first time Fedex turned the box upside-down, the inductors broke free from whatever adhesive I had used and tore off.

Valuable lesson learned, but still disappointing to Rob not to just be able to pull them out of the boxes and enjoy. 

Thanks again, guys - Pat
