You would think that being in my forties that a small wait like that would not be a big deal. I was also waiting on an A2-300 sub from ED at the same time. I don't know if waiting on two things made it worse or better. I was going back and forth checking both web sites pretty much daily. They arrived within about 4 days of each other. First the sub, and then the 8's. These two last pieces of my HT have made a huge difference in my setup. People are blown away when they hear my system.
