matt is a class act!i reponded to his FS thread about his octane LE. I am planning a install in my 2004 GTO and wanted a "special" amp and the octane is perfect. We agreed on a price but when i tried to send payment my paypal account is locked due to a international transaction gone bad.
Matt was very patient about it( over 30 days) but i was finally able to send the money.
the amp arrived today from UPS:
i opened the box to find a wooden crate inside:
i thought wow thats cool he made a crate to ship it in, he even stenciled the crate after he painted it!
once i removed the twelve srews i found another surprise.....
some rcas that he obsessively secured to cardboard along with the lpl-44. the rca's were a extra he included!
i removed the caardboard to get to the amp...
notice the plastic phoenix gold logo he attached to the crate he made... attention to detail above and beyond anything i ever expected!
finally there she is in all her carbon fiber glory!!!
but why the hell cant i get it out???
i remove the foam to find he actually screwed her down in the crate!

finally i remove her and find two folders he also included!!!!
THIS MY FRIENDS IS A MAN THAT IS PASSIONATE ABOUT PHOENIX GOLD!!he has gone above and beyond anything i ever expected or experienced before..
as a long time diyma member and previously ECA i have been buying selling and trading for a loooong time, many high dollar deals but never have i experienced anything like this.
I dont have the words to express how excited i am about this amp.
and i can thank Matt enough for this deal..
Matt is without a doubt a great guy that i wouldnt hesitate to deal with again!!!!
thank you matt!
