Hey Brian,
Nice to see another Iowan around these parts, I think that makes 5 that I know of..
What part of the state are you from?
If you average all of the dates on the speakers you ordered, that should give you a good estimate when they will arrive. Usually, they come sooner than the longest speaker date listed in the Factory Outlet.
I'm one of the people recently messing around with treatments. I can say I really seem to have improved the overall sound, clarity, and echo reduction.
Here is a good website to get you some good starter information on acoustics.
