Will all furher pre-order be in the drawing?

It should be pretty obvious that I'm going to stand behind what I've done here. How can I not, I'm paying for all of it before it even arrives. Heck, if something isn't exactly right, I've already said I'm eating it because it's a project I moved along. That's why I haven't taken any money up front on anything before these plastic waveguides. I look at this whole waveguide project as a group effort. But if they don't arrive, I'd give the money back for what will be about 200 preorders, and eat the loss for the remaining 800 myself. Someone had to do this. If not, we'd still be back there talking about what if's.
Don't take this the wrong way, and I know you mean well. But I'm surprised how pessimistic you've been with many steps of this project. From the original design, plastic worries, CD testing.....and now you want to make sure you can buy replacements in case I have a tragic landscaper disaster. 
I'm not really sure what I've done to make you worry like that. And I truly hope that none of your worries come true. But my biggest thing is always to have a Plan B, so things are okay sir.
That's not happening.
He recommended that I set up a business for the audio stuff to make sure liabilities were covered. Of course that doesn't help with scratched horns! There are things being considered, but I'm also trying to figure a way to do that but keep pricing *well* under everything else out there.
. Now here we are with the components for entire speaker builds with talented folks working on crossover designs. All at prices that cannot be matched by any retail or ID company - in other words components for what is clearly at, or near, cost.



There have been no pre-orders allowed on the CD's because pricing isn't known. All these items will be available on an ongoing basis. I've never said all sales are final. Of course you'll have time to return them if you don't like them. Why would that bother me? But why would I put all the 'legal' stuff up on the CD's when they aren't even here yet and none have been sold? And if you find something better that's cheaper, then you should buy it. Why would you not? No one will be forced to buy anything, ever. I will be testing each one before 1 person puts up a dime. If that doesn't ease worries, I honestly have no idea what would.
I'm sorry to be a pain in the derriere... but I think this is important info to weigh into my purchase decision, especially since I'm looking at possibly 14 units, and more if I need additional units down the road....
You're giving a lot of scenarios for things that haven't even started, but have already been thought about. Your purchase decision should be based on what is currently known. Until I have the CD's here, they don't exist, so how can I give all the info? If you're worried about the 14 plastic waveguides, I will refund your pre-order money immediately. Just let me know. No one is under any obligation to buy anything, including the compression drivers.....that aren't here yet.
I probably shouldn't have mentioned them. They're not needed with the SEOS project and no one has to get them.
