Tyler acoustics questions

Audiopath,
I ship/receive about 25 packages per week using FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL, and BAX Global. I've had very few problems and the figure you quote wouldn't suprise me.

As I stated previously, for anybody to make a claim that one company is particularly rough handling is just plain stupid. He clearly knows not of what he speaks. For the record and contrary to his assertion, I find the UPS folks courteous and careful.

.That is reassuring. I hope everything is all right when the speakers arrives as I do not want the hassle of another cross border shipment. You would not believe what I had to go through last time when the speaker arrived .I trust Tyler ,howeverr being a perfectionist I would have preferred a new tweeter & to have the whole system checked out on a audiphile grade system. Let’s hope I get lucky & get a matched pair without bad crossover parts or drivers. I know Tyler will make good as he just emailed me again with reassurances (what a guy) however it is all the hassle moving product across the border & having to prove to them every time that it is a repair item, not a purchase. You still get hit with brokerage every time & I would not dare have Tyler pay this at the good price he sold the speakers at plus the free service to date. He is a really good guy & I suspect if I get a properly functioning pair of sig mons, given the array & even choice of good equipment I have, that I can make them sing. I have not heard of anyone yet who has purchased these speakers that just does not love them. What is doubly impressive is all the high quality speakers these folks have owned prior to settling on the sig mons …if you go to the audio review site and of course look around on Audiogon.

Having making my own speakers, I agree that the Excel tweeter is smoother than the Scan Speak. The Scan Speak is a bit extrovert where as the Excel is a bit laid back and smooth sounding.
