    I cannot believe I finally got them!
    My pots and a pair of IBT-2 drivers got M.I.A. :sos:mad:
    Anyway, I also got a pair of Sabertooth 2x32A from USA in less than 2 weeks, and I will get the rest of the stuff locally, I'm tired of waiting.
    Soon my new build thread! :sos:sos:sos :grin:grin:grin
