    Hi everyone. I posted my loaner impressions of the Oor and Hypsos but I realize some of you may be avoiding the impressions posts to form your own, unadulterated opinions of the stack. As such, I just wanted to mention that you may wish to check the correct settings for the Hypsos when connecting it to the Oor. I may have screwed up, which may have influenced my impressions.

    Edit: I went back through the impressions thread and found this post by purr1n:

    The amp, power supply and the main boxes of Oor and Hypsos are all in good shape. However one of the outer carton is showing its age.

    WTF are the shipping companies doing with these boxes? storing them in oil soaked trays on trucks and planes?
    that box was MINT condition not more than a few shipments ago when I sent to Marv.
    carry on but please replace crap cardboard at will.

    On its way to @KenAR
    @jexby @julie gave the Ferrum box to FedEx and paid them to put both the Ferrum box stitched together inside one FedEx box and secure it safely, which they did.

    Is this loaner still accepting Pyrates? If so, I'm in WA.

    Loaner has arrived to the DC Metro, haven’t opened the inner boxes yet as I just got home. Those boxes for sure got a good thrashing before the new outer box!

    I will be out of town the week of March 18th. I think it makes sense to move me down a slot so I don’t delay the loaner. @julie
