Hi all, my shipment of speakers are on the purolator truck for delivery. But outside is very moist and cold...about -11. Will they just drop it off in front of my house? How will the cold affect my speakers ;(

Purolator requires an authorization/signature for it to be delivered by someone or else it stays in the system until someone signs for it.

Unless you left a signed note for them to leave it, you will get a 'doorknocker' left and it will let you know that you can pick up your stuff at "insert closest center here" or it will be redelivered again tomorrow.

Are you sure? Last time they left my M22s outside. \:\(
but my daughter was home early so she moved them inside for me.
I doubt she can move these ones as easily if they do leave it...

I just got a note myself! I missed the truck by 2 minutes... Good thing it's just conectors! \:\) Out of 9 deliveries, I missed 4 and all 4 times they left the note for me to either pick up or schedule a second attempt.

Yea but ... will the cold damage the speakers? I'd probably bet not, but what do I know about those kinds of temps.

Happens all of the time down here. I'll be driving down the road with my heater blasting and some very white couple will pass me by in their rental Sebring convertible, during the same drive I'll go over our bridge to the barrier island and I'll see some of them very white folks swimming, laying out in their bathing suits on their lawn chairs, crazy! Don't take 'em long to turn red though, lot's of bright cheeks here in the winter time. \:\)

I'm still wondering if the cold will damage the speakers, for some reason I'm thinking it will not.

Right you are - cold will be fine. The couriers don't heat the speakers in their trucks or planes so it won't be any different at your place - no problems.

(Except trying to get those cold staples out!)
