FYI for the SDX owners in the group.


Hi Tony….
 
Not sure what the deal is with the Simmons Forum but my posts are not 
showing up. I seem to be on “ignore”. Very frustrating. I’ve asked 
Jesper to explain and he says it’s because my posts need to be approved 
or something… 
 
Anyway, I tried to post an FSR update..  I just received and am testing the new “One-piece” FSR Prototypes… and so far are performing amazingly well.
I believe that after 2 years of trial and error we now finally have a working unit. :-)
(These actually out-perform the originals in all aspects. The one I notice the most is the sensitivity/velocity curve is greatly improved.)
I also wanted to clarify to the group that these beauties are a “complete Circuit Foil & Resistor” assembly.. not just the top resistor sheet bit. The manufacturer did a fantastic job!!
 
I’d like to start taking orders for a run of the production units. The goal is to have at least 25 ordered…. but the more the better as the cost 
will drop with larger quantities as indicated a few months ago.
 
Can you please let the group know for me? This not being able to see my posts is very annoying!
 
Thanks and Cheers!!
Alan
