@russ funny you should ask lol Finally uploaded today

Build more, worry less. That's my motto lol. Seriously though, I'd only be concerned if I was shipping it elsewhere in the world with extreme temps. ...

Well I got there in the end, plays really nice, looks really nice and sounds really nice. I'll call that a win.
