    I have never heard a Pietus Maximus, am VERY far afield which makes shipping expensive, and it's a gamble whether anything sent my way will even get to me, or make it back. Cannot in good conscience ask to join sadly.

    This loaner has tested my patience a good amount. The franken amp works well, but shipping has been brutal on the internals. Since its origianl shipping, we have secured some more wires with zip ties, but then lost some standoffs to what i can only assume was a few good tosses by UPS.

    Fixed the standoff issue with bigger hardware and loctite only to have another signal wire break off, probably due to over working the wire while fixing other stuff, or general weakness from all the tossing about once the standoff brokes.

    At this point I have secured all the wires as well as I can with zip ties, clamsp and glue, improved the solder points in almost all locations, and trimmed some of the excess wire. The amp is ready to go back out.

    I am going to send it out again this week. Let me know if any of you are no longer interested.

    @Pancakes if your ready I can send it your way. Just send me a pm with your contact details.

    You're almost at the point you might as well just pot the amp and fill the thing up with epoxy :cool:
