how high is the drop test at ups?


just got a new set of high quality bookshelf speakers. one is doa. so i looked inside and the xover is snapped from the terminals and has a corner cracked off. i have never seen this before. there is no damage to the box. i wonder how this could happen. it looks like a powerful force must have developed even tho the crossover is heavy duty and weighs more than many.

update, contacted the company [Phase Technology] and asked them if they would send me a crossover so i could fix the speaker. i even volunteered to pay for it. they told me they would rather just send me a new speaker and for me to send mine back. i guess the mix of great service and my willingness to offer a compromise worked out great. the speakers are not warmed up yet but this is awesome service and is an example of about 90 % of my interactions with audio companies. thank you Phase Technology, john batten
What Markpao said! Felt pretty sure they'd help in some fashion, but a complete replacement?

Were the words "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Birthday" embedded anywhere within their phone conversation with you? If not, ...uhhh, consider it a gift from ME! :D
Are you talking about ground or air shipments? For air shipments the drop test is 20,000 feet.
