  1. Home theatre upgrade coming up soon, ordered 28 banana plugs off Aliexpress. I work in an AV store and get dealer cost and I still for 28 off Ali for the same price I pay for 4 from my store. Some stuff just always will be cheaper from china lol.
  2. Id love to know the answer to this as well lol. Ive lived in Canada my whole life and in the 40 years Ive been alive Ive never found a reliable way to know what the charges are gonna be. Sometimes its literally zero, other times ive had to pay like 60% of the purchase price in additional fees, seems like no rhyme or reason
  3. Ok so I have a msi 3060 gaming card and I have been having audio issues off and on for probably 4 months. What happens is after a random amount of time the audio will become what I can only describe as garbled and scratchy then it just goes out. If I run the troubleshooter built into windows its reinstalls the "generic driver" and it starts working fine again. Sometimes that fixes it for a few days, other times in 20 minutes I have to do it again. I havent been able to find any other driver besides the generic audio driver, not sure if thats the issue. Its running HDMI into my projector which is where the audio comes from. The card did this in my other system as well so I figure it has to either be a hardware issue or a driver issue of somekind, Im leaning more towards a driver issue as it gets resolved for. awhile by reinstalling the driver. If I am right I am just wondering if anyone knows a permenant fix as this current "reinstalling the driver every so often" isnt really a fix as much as just "kicking the can down the road"
  4. If you are gonna use a graphics card run a threaded rod clean through the case and make some type of clamp that goes on the non supported end of the GPU, if you do it correctly that GPU would be beyond solid. Realistically it would just need a couple 3d printed parts to make the clamps and then the rod and 6 nuts.
  5. I get what you mean with this comment but in OP's defense the store has missed the ship date for a lot of these waves for both screwdriver and backpack, so what written on the store page has often been wrong. With that said though anyone that says they know for sure is just making a date up at this point.
  6. Yep but mistakes happen, they are fixing it, nothing else to do here so its a moot point now.
  7. Im #358xxx and still nothing but Im sure they will get it out sooner rather than later. Im fortunate in that I am only a province away so once its in the mail I doubt it will take long to get here
  8. Last I heard from WAN show is that Black Shaft were expected to start shipping this week or next week. I am black shaft in wave 1 order number 358XXX and I have no shipment notification either. It will come when they are ready I guess.
  9. If you search on here or listen to the wan show youd know, there is a ton of hurdles involved in a small operation opening logistics in another country, and despite what we want to maybe think LTT in the grand scheme is still a small operation.
  10. @phatrattyyI certainly wouldnt be done with them yet, my next response would be "Well my case is under warranty so what are you going to do to fulfill your warranty that you offered on this case"
  11. Ok so if its under warranty than what was the solution they offered you?
  12. Tweet Nick Light on twitter for something really urgent, which I would consider the OPs situation to be
  13. Yep, but I ordered black shaft. What was your order number? In general the only thing to really do is wait, and sending in support tickets for updates will only bog them down more. Im not saying that the delays arent crappy to deal with, just saying that adding tickets to the support team probably wont help. Hopefully logistics can get things moving at a more regular pace soon. I will suggest though that LTT should really update their website to reflect the new shipping estimates as they clearly arent hitting the current ones on the page.
  14. I work in a retail store and while usb-c isnt near as often I have still seen to many to be happy about it, micro b was BRUTAL, had it happen far to often. Have yet to have a customer come back with an iphone with a dead lightning port, not saying it doesnt happen, just saying I havent had it come up. With all that said I also understand that I am a sample size of one store. Now cables on the other hand are a different story, lightning cables fail far more often than usb-c do, once again based on my experiences
  15. Those are ESTIMATED ship times, not guaranteed ship times
  16. Ok so as someone who actually installs systems like this for a living let me help out a bit. The Boyo frame is useless and annoying, camera is fine but the monitoring sucks, dont bother. The brandmotion system is the only one on your list I have installed but can confirm that if you take your time and be careful when mounting your sensors it works exceptionally well. I know its the most expensive but when dealing with systems like this the lower priced ones tend to go off more randomly and that just makes people start to ignore them.
  17. Where did you get these statistics? I dont think the average income in the states is anywhere near 6200 a month unless you are factoring in guys like Zuck who would obviously sku the results big time.
  18. They are working on larger sizes they said, its just a matter of getting the more common sizing perfect first than moving on to the less common. They arent sourcing blanks from anyone else anymore, they are having their own made so its just a matter of time now.
  19. Oh no I understand that, what I meant is why do people talk about flushing a loop is a big deal. If you can build a loop than you should be more than capable of doing this. Thats all I meant
  20. Why is draining a loop a big deal? As was stated its OBVIOUSLY more difficult than an aircooled system but its not like its this big massive undertaking, either way its all personal preference though, build what you like
  21. Ive ran hardline for a few years, people with hardline who say its hard to maintain just build poorly planned loops or decided to build in a case that wasnt suitable IMO. As for maintenance its really just 30-45 minutes once or twice a year depending on what you use for coolant. It really isnt a big deal.
  22. Its been talked about on here many times that support tickets are backed up several weeks right now. I get that its frustrating but shipping is also a bit behind, there were people in wave one that reported getting their tracking numbers as recently as yesterday for a product that was scheduled to start shipping on oct 20, but dont forget that they arent shipping 15,000 drivers out in one day, after the start of wave 2 shipment it could still be a week before someone in wave 2 actually has their driver leave the warehouse
  23. Dont forget that "sound as good" is subjective. Some people seem to prefer the sound of vinyl to a digital master, and while its not as you put it scientifically possible for that to be a thing, if it sounds better TO THEM and they make the statement than its not untrue. In the same way if I look at two pieces of abstract art, one painted by a 4 year old with a super soaker full of paint and one painted by a renowned artist and I think that the 4 year old did a better job than that painting looks better TO ME. Experts might/would disagree but it doesnt make my statement untrue. It just means that you probably shouldnt put much value in my tastes of new age art lol.
  24. According to WAN show within the next two weeks approx
  25. Which one is it? Do you not care or do you feel suckered. And you said that when you superchat other creators with GOOD questions they answer you and you feel that asking Linus to consider a man bun before getting a hair cut is a good question that you think should have been addressed? You told someone to talk like an adult but you are acting like a petulant child who wants attention, grow up.
