[QUOTE="Chris Clark, post: 76813, member: 2763"] Re: Behringer X32 - things to check when you get it I gotta work on my tone of typing haha. I was agreeing with you, JR, most of my comments were in general a commentary on the likelihood of consumers to immediately blame the manufacturer for DOA issues which, while there are manufacturer defects and things that could be done better, sure, the shippers who perform 6' "drop tests" and practice their dodgeball skills (thank you for the examples JR and Dick - no I'm not aiming this specifically at you though :-P ) can also play a major role in DOAs. The rest of the post was mostly satirical - going to extremes that [I]could (not necessarily will) [/I]alleviate some of the problems introduced in shipping products, and in every case something that is just absurd in the trade off. And I agree about locking connectors and am actually surprised at how few you tend to see in the real world. In addition (this is a real comment, not satire) a dab of hot glue on a well-designed connector can go a long way to assist the latching mechanism too. Not only will it[I] help[/I] hold the connector in place, if that connector does need to be removed for a repair its really not that hard to break the glue and put a new dab on after the repair. But at the same time I'll admit I'm no expert in manufacturing, packaging, and I didn't stay at a Motel 6 last night, so these are really just the ramblings of a wannabe weekend warrior. [/QUOTE]
