Why do you guys hate these things? Poor build quality? Die at the track? Slippy? Just saying it's crap doesn't give me any insight...what you dislike I might like.
These are all the reasons to stay clear of them, you ask for our opinions, you got more - then +, but still you say "Just saying ats crap doesn't give me any insight", I personally gave you "insight" on my exsperiences with 2 of them, i guess you'll have to find out for yourself, Ok, so you get it for 150.00, in no time you'll be sending it off to be "properly fixed" so you can be happy with it, then you'll have a good 350.00 in it plus shipping cost.
I will tell you from "exsperience", once YOU own a "decent" quality converter, you THEN know when you've gotten a "lemon", whether it runs down the road or not, so what i'm saying is, the converter doesn't "need not work" to be junk, does this make any sence? You have to understand that converters are very "vitel" when it comes down to there performance, its VERY important to get a good "quality" unit.
