well, I talked my wife into unboxing our first EP800 tonight. Despite its size & weight, it was relatively easy as we were able to slide it on a bath towel along our shiny laminate floor. Carpeting would have been another matter.
Firstly, the cabinet is gorgeous & flawless. Easily connected & I fired it up (not calibrated yet) & played some Clapton on DVD through it at about half volume & up to -15 Db on my AVR. Sounded clean, accurate & very musical. As a test, I turned on my remaining Velo & it was not apparent at all.
Here are some pics of new on the left & old on the right. I resurrected my old DIY stands for the M22s until I can get a real set from Axiom. 'Beast' #2 is scheduled to arrive on Friday.
