Anyone know the estimated time to receive something to the US from these guys? I ordered an HK enabler for my Pioneer head unit and their websites says "dispatched"(the king's english for "shipped" I assume). I'm shipping to Louisiana. I just want to have Suncoast Sound ready to do the install.


Btw, they really pulled their hair out trying to work with the HK amp and my Pioneer. 3 days in there and they ended up trying to hide the factory unit in the dashboard and wire the amp to stay on 24/7. I pulled the plug on that project and told them about the enabler. I only hope the "hiss" is not bad. I'm missing my ipod,bluetooth,nice display and eq,etc(Pioneer 9800)

You should send Mikey an e-mail and ask. I would imagine that it varies from place to place and customs could hold it up a little.

are they using EMS? typically i would say about 4-5 biz days, but as
mentioned above, customs has a lot to do with international transit times.

When I got my bluetooth set-up from him, it was about a week to 10 days. Shouldn't take too long.

I received mine some time ago, was within 2 weeks I think. I have it installed with my Pioneer 9800, Kicker L7 8 and Kicker 400.1 Amp. It sounds GREAT and I cannot hear any of the hiss at low volume I read about. I'm SO glad this device exists because the sound shop was at a real loss for a viable solution. I didn't want my amp powered 24/7 nor did I want my factory unit hidden in the dash. Great job GBmini on the invention and thanks Mike for getting it to me.
