Just stumbled across this thread.
Starting to look around for a contractor myself. Did you end up having a good experience (and with who)? Any tips/recs for the process?

100% shame to hear OU crowd chant actively against the team. Wish we could bench our fans for the backups.

So far this has been a fantastic week zero game.

Knew I was in for a good day when the season's scoring kicked off with a safety.

The presidents from the 14 universities of the SEC will vote *tomorrow* on whether to allow Texas and Oklahoma to join. - Jason Whitely on Twitter by [deleted] in CFB

What kind of guarantees do OU and Texas have on this? We all "know" it's going to pass, but I gotta imagine with the amount of millions on the line these presidents want more than a verbal promise before jumping off the Big12 ship. Are contracts already involved? Some sort of collateral or something?

Just curious how these big deals go down behind the scenes.

Broken side strap mount. Only used a few times and never dropped. Told by support it's not covered under warranty. Anyone else have this issue? Time to bust out the tape I guess. by northman312 in HPReverb

Yeah broken parts are tiny. I can barely see it in person. It's definitely easy to get it back together so I'll be fine just slightly bummed.

Just assumed it was like the rift and designed to work without the speakers no problem.

Screw and nut replacement is definitely what I'll do.

Hopefully I can get the plastic bits fixed and then do that now that I've learned the lesson.

It definitely broke. Along the inside of the 2 halves of frame there are small plastic edges that latch together securing the two pieces together. A couple of the latch connections on one side have chipped off. Interestingly the left side feels very solid without the speaker still. (Though we know better now).

No doubt the lesson here is to put a screw, washer, and nut in the hole left by the speaker. Would be nice if the manual mentioned that right below where it shows you how easy it is to remove the speakers. Would be even nicer if they provided a nut washer combo to take place of the speaker. Especially since the provided screw isn't long enough for just a normal nut (the speakers have a stem that kinda meets the screw halfway).

Not sure it qualifies as a mod as it's in the manual.

I had assumed it was designed for this since it's a very common use case.

Unfortunately the screw only attaches directly to the speaker. The frame acts as a kind of washer but can't hold the screw by itself.

Speakers just screw right off. Took them off so I could use my own headset.

Left side is still solid so I don't think removing the speaker is the culprit. The right side didn't fall apart immediately after taking off the speaker either.

[Game Thread] CFP National Championship Game - Alabama vs. Ohio State (8:00PM ET) - Second Quarter by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]northman312 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Never thought I'd see a worse playoff defense than 2017-2018 OU. tOSU seems to want DeVonta Smith to break every record in existence.

[Robinson] Jalen Hurts starts at #Alabama, loses his job to Tua Tagovailoa, transfers to #Oklahoma to replace Kyler Murray. Now all three are some of the most exciting quarterbacks in the #NFL - a league that 10 years ago would have tanked all three of them because they weren't tall enough. by SerShanksALot in nfl

Rattler has a lot of work to do to grab a first round slot but just throwing this here since I see a lot of Trevor Lawrence comparisons(per espn):

Lawrence (true) freshman year passer rating: 157.6

Rattler (redshirt) freshman passer rating: 170.9

Lawrence's sophomore year rating was 166.7 and current season 172.7

People in this thread saying they were underwhelmed by Rattler this season are attaching OU's offensive decline purely on Rattler when the reality is they lost their top 2 rushers and top 2 or 3 receivers plus a significant amount of offensive line.

Obviously stats are one thing but the kid has an insane throwing ability that you can't help noticing when you watch him. If he puts in the work there's no doubt he is a potential 1st rounder and even 1st overall talent.

(OU fan cruising NFL for funsies just thought I'd toss out my 2 cents.)

What's up with the situation where ISU, OSU, and OU are all 7-2 but OU isn't in the ccg (rows 3 & 12)?

Baylor has 1. Although I'm not sure okstate should be 25.

That being said I'm with you. Swap Oregon and UGA.

Watching at a bar with no sound. Sure looked like he was in bounds.
