Not sure how to say it... 

91% of the 2nd batch mics didn't pass QC. This is incredibly frustrating to all involved ... but there is good news on the horizon:

• We are very certain of what's wrong and know we can fix it in the next batch
• Additional wait shouldn't be very long. ~2-3 weeks.
• Enough passed QC to chip away some off the wait list and all of those waiting for replacements
• Mute version is coming along 

In the spirit of transparency we whipped up a video that does a little explaining and lets you listen to what the rejects (and Jimmy) sound like: (skip to ~0:40 if you want to just listen to the bad mic comparison)
