boXem A 4216/E2 Stereo Amplifier Review
- Thread starter amirm
- Start date
One case of Mozilla/Android NOT broken, reported from France 
So my ongoing results are weird.
Windows virtual machine - same result: no products listed - both edge and brave browsers.
Safari on iPhone - same result. I turned off wifi to use the telephone providers network (different from my home network) same result.
Tor browser (The Onion Router) - I can see the pages and products correctly - no matter how many times I change the exit node.
Old macbook - on Safari - same result (so not a machine specific thing)
Old macbook- on safari - connected to iphone hotspot - same result (So not a network thing)
Current macbook connected to a VPN with USAnian IP Address - same result (so not a UK specific location thing)
Exactly what I get.
I have no idea what is going on. The only way I can see the products is via the TOR browser. And that works on my current Macbook.
In fact I was more suspecting something USA related initially. What about now?
@amper42 @Soniclife @3ll3d00d ?
@boXem
My VPN is now connected to Canada (Vancouver) - and I can see the site correctly with Safari on my current mac. It looks like it might be location related. TOR will only provide me a mainland EU exit node. I don't have control over server location with the VPN because I am using the free version (proton). I'll try reconnecting though to get a location other than Canada and see what happens.
EDIT - I've disconnected the VPN, so I am back on my UK IP - your site seems to be working correctly now. Have you changed something?
Also now working on my phone.

Yes - I am seeing products correctly now - but without the filters.
Yes, removed the filter I spent half a day to configure
Not something shady from an obscure corner of internet, the official module from Prestashop, one of the most used CMS. Unfortunately not the first time such thing happens.
When I am talking about a much needed overhaul, it essentially consists in kicking this ... thing out of my company.
Thanks a lot for the extensive testing.

It's ok here now
UK. It's started working now.
I can see the product now.
I think it has to do with check box filtering you had on the left side.
Now that it's gone Boxem product on website is viewable again.
Now that it fixed maybe you can send me a

By the way is that hard to install in an existing Arthur 4215/E2 case?
This reminds of not so good impressions about Prestash** shared elsewhere a few years ago - doesn't seem to have improved much. 
At that time, Wordpress+Woocommerce was mentioned as a better alternative - FWIW.

Not really hard for somebody who held a screwdriver once in his life, just that Purifi doesn't allow us to directly sell modules to customers.
Mmmm, thanks but no thanks. I don't know about reliability but ergonomics are catastrophic.

Wow, USD exchange rate to Euro is one of the worst I have seen. Maybe I need to start buying more international stocks? I notice Boxem no longer displays pricing available in USD. Is that permanent now?
it also confused me last summer, but i was helped out by Keith at Purite Audio down the road and bought the one he told me!Not me who said it - I am not a potential purchaser at the moment, but I can give you some feedback.
For me, what is missing is an overview of your product range and a clear understanding of the differences between each model.
For example - do I need Arthur, or A series? From looking at your site, I have no idea.
Then when I click on "A Series," I can select between 20 different items - but the only info shown is the model number and price. I can't even see if they are mono, stereo, or multi-channel. Same on the Arthur page except for fewer options. The only way to find out what each model offers is to drill down to view the detailed specifications. At this point, if I were a potential purchaser, I might just give up. As a non-purchaser, I already have - meaning I am less likely to return if I want a new amp in the future.
For me - as a minimum, you need:
1 - An "in your face" (meaning right there on the home page) description of the headline differences between your Arthur and A series ranges.
2 - On each range's home page - under each item, a statement of channel number and rated power is an absolute minimum. Better would be a table with a line per item, a thumbnail picture in the left column with the model number, and showing key specifications for each. For me, I'd also want to be able to easily see which modules the amp is based on. Being able to filter the table for channel number, and module type would be good.
Hope that helps.
@boXem... can you please elaborate for US customers why this is the case?
B2C from outside USA to inside USA has just become too complicated for a small company if the number 1 priority is customer satisfaction. Lost a small percentage of sales to gain a high percentage of sleep.
