That's what you get for being an individual and going IB.

Sorry to read about your ordeal.

I think a lot of people can relate: Parties is where most people try their hand at smoking as well.

You were changing gear attached to the amp while the amp was ON??? I hope you learned your lesson.

My Samson S1000 (for my SVS 20-39CS+ and Buttkicker LFE) has been running 24/7 for over 4 years now. It's a freakin' miracle the fans haven't gone out at least. I occasionally hose the dust out of it with canned air, but I never turn it off.
