A few questions as a Miner who got in via Scrypt mining since I was told BitCoin wasn't profitable anymore but doing my own calculations, seeing that this was sort of a lie (Or at the very least, Spondoolies made it profitable again.) Excuse my ignorance if these questions have already been answered but I was trying to search through all 100+ pages of this post and didn't find any answers as of yet.

I've already seen Spondoolies on CCN's website and people have already been posting reviews on this ASIC, so I'm assuming this ASIC company is already established and trust worthy manufacturer unlike the millions of ASIC companies popping up on Scrypt sites talking about how there taking pre-orders but still months away from launch.

How long does it take to order an SP-10 Dawson from them (Does it have to ship from Isreal or do they have a local shipping site?)

I've read that the SP-10 produces 45 db of noise yet some people are complaining this is too loud... Are they just hyper-sensitive of hearing or do they not have basements/living rooms to store these ASIC's? And are there any methods of lowering the noise levels if indeed they are louder then 45 db? (I live in NYC so 45 is REALLY quiet even for night time here) Grin

I've also read that the units get really hot underneath, and I was interested in getting racks for multiple units, but how do the units not burn each other (Or at the very least cause overheating) if there stacked on top of one another?

Any information or help at all would be greatly appreciated as someone who's been taught since entering ASIC mining to ignore SHA-256 and focus purely on Scrypt.

Yes, they are real... the company and the product.
It takes about 5 minutes to order one on their website. You can pay either via BTC or bank transfer (USD/Euros). BTC orders are processed pretty much immediately. Bank transfers take about 2 days to clear. Shipping is from Israel. If you order now, you'll get the June batch, which is going to start shipping next week. From the time I placed my order until the time it arrived at my door was 8 days, which included a 2 day wait for the bank transfer to clear, and the Memorial Day weekend. I live in south Jersey, near Philly, so should give you an idea.

45db of noise? Maybe when it's off... lol. These are loud - closer to 80db. Yes, you can lower the hash rate / fan speeds via the web interface. This brings it from jet engine to loud vacuum cleaner.

The units get hot, but as long as you have ample cooling in your racks, you'll be fine.

Dogie's review shows a meter at 68db. this is not a miner for your spare room. better in an out-house.
