For this round will you also be using FedEX for international shipments? (I live in Canada). I've had many bad experiences with UPS - always comes with unexpected extra charges.

evil_mdI live in Peru and always FEDEX, UPS, TNT, DHL always comes with unexpected extra charges too. Big charges, only USPS is cheap.

Luis@Luis, @evil_md <br /><br />For the current round of Aune T1 group buy (round 2), the plan is to continue using shipping service by UPS Mail Innovation. We have resolved the package tracking issue some of our members were experiencing. So it shouldn't be a problem going forward.<br /><br />And just to clarify, UPS Mail Innovation uses USPS for international shipping. So there won't be any additional fees to worry about.

nelsonNelson,<br /><br />You're misinformed. How does shipping USPS for international shipments mean that "there won't be any additional fees to worry about"?<br /><br />It might mean there won't be brokerage fees if you ship via USPS (only couriers charge this crap), but <br />there's definitely the potential for customs, which include taxes, service charges and potential duties.<br /><br />The only shipping methods of value to me (to Canada) are:<br />-USPS First Class<br />-And depending on how heavy and big the parcel is, USPS Priority<br />-UPS Mail Innovations is also pretty good (so far)<br /><br />Anything else by UPS, FedEx, DHL or couriers, I will refuse to buy now matter how appealing the price is.

nelson@nelson So much for starting that countdown by the end of the day tuesday....No tracking number still :/ Hopefully that changes by tonight. This is getting ridiculous. And UPS/Fedex mail Innovations is a terrible service that ships via regular ground shipping and then hands off your package to local USPS, which does nothing but ADD INCONVENIENCE. USPS is a horrendous outdated service that really needs to either reform or GTFO

shrimantsJust got my Aune in. Sounds absolutely great!<br /> @shrimants <br /><br />That's not true. USPS is an excellent method of shipping packages. I pretty much ship via USPS exclusively because their prices are way better than UPS or Fedex. Priority Mail is a bargain. The package would definitely fit inside a USPS Flat Rate Large Box which ships 2-3 days for a little over 15 bucks. That said, I agree with you 100% on UPS MI. It's stupid. Much better off going with either UPS Ground or USPS directly. Cut out the middle man.

Should I exchange the PC38X for better headphones?
I bought the PC38X headphones FOR GAMING and they are great, but I have NO use for a Microphone since I don't do competitive gaming and I was wondering if there were better headphone options at a similar price without a headphone, where (presumably) more of the cost was put into making it sound better. I also find that my PC38X don't get quite as loud as I would like and I was wondering if a cheap amp like the iFi Go link would draw a little more volume out of my phones. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BN6MM822?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I went with the PC38X since it was considered the best bang for buck headphones. I care most about using spatial apps like DOlby Atmos and DTS Headphone:X. Suggestions are welcome.

Looking for a gaming/content audio setup
Hello! I'm looking for recommendations on audio setups. I'd be planning on using it mostly for gaming. Preferably I'd like a pair of large closed back headphones since I have a big head and jaw. I'd also like to hear myself through my mic with mic monitoring. As far as budget goes, I don't really have one. But under 600$ would be nice. I can go higher if needed. The audio setup would be connected to a high performance PC. Thank you in advance for any recommendations!

$10 Drop Coupon Email not sent?
Trying to buy some gear off Drop for the first time. I was told I would receive an email with a welcome to drop $10 off promo. I never received that email. Drop was able to send me emails for my login token and email for Password update. But for some reason the $10 off coupon was never sent to me.

New here
Hello, I just joined, primarily for the audiophile products. Looking at purchasing the NHT C3 speakers for our new living room. Space is about 15 feet wide by 33 long and they will fire long ways. Space is just for general listening, music room with all equipment is downstairs, so hoping they will fill it with sound nicely. Cheers.
