Then they might open it to compare…
Does kind of look like a space age laser gun.Is it going international? That tone arm cut out with tone arm may raise an eyebrow and get the box opened.
“Shucks pard, that’s ain’t no Gun, this here is a real Gun”Then they might open it to compare…
Now the nail biting beginsDone...
Yeah, hopefully Fed-Ex hasn't hired all the seasonal goons yet. If Fed-Ex is open Friday Spence, they'll go out then, if not Monday. I'll PM your tracking numbers here in a bit...
I hope these packages are packed for air shipment. I'm sure with the light weight of the arm box it will be airborne in the sorting facilities if handled by humans. It looks pretty good in the packaging dept. Maybe these will make the journey as an inconspicuous box just getting from point a to point b as unmolested as possible.Yeah, hopefully Fed-Ex hasn't hired all the seasonal goons yet.

yup good packing it seems.10-4 Lee, looks like I will be saving those boxes, nice.
I never thought to ask but what generation is the BW, not that it matters to me but now that I know that there were 3 gens, I am curious.
Excellent detective work my good man. If you are correct, this is the first I have heard of 5 gens. There isn’t much detailed information about the history of these arms out there. We will keep digging.yup good packing it seems.
As to the gen, I'm now leaning toward 5 generations. Remember I was at 4 in the last list.
Here we go again
Aluminum that breaks
Stepped carbon fiber
Tapered carbon fiber
Tapered carbon fiber with damping trough (in front of or behind the pivot)
Tapered carbon fiber with damping trough (behind or in front of the pivot)
Mentioned twice because this arm has a rear mounted trough and my arm, also a tapered CF arm has a front mounted trough. I do not know the actual info on which is which but willing to learn and change my data on this aspect of the arm versions. Not really 5 different versions but I'm being complete in my documentation and any changes are getting a different version number so we can be the authority on the ∞BW arm here instead of some other forum.
Speaking of detective work.I'm 8991XJ
Yes that is the serial number. I have not pull mine from the board to see what it is. Might be a while as I have an sfrost alignment, refresh on my TD-126II/∞BW/ADC XLM II and I want to see what that is. I will be changing the cartridge.
