My EP175 v2 in Cinnamon Beech is due to arrive tomorrow afternoon. 4 weeks since ordering it has been a long wait. One more day.

The light at the end of the tunnel might make you feel better initially, but just wait until that light has kept you awake all night long... might wanna run out and grab a bottle of Nyquil to guzzle tonight!

Tomorrow you'll be woofing.
Half of communication is listening. You can't listen with your mouth.

Here's the EP175v2 in Cinnamon Beech. It looks good and sounds good. Had problems with hum, but when I removed the grounding screw in the back, that went away. I used MCACC to set it up. Played the opening scenes of Master and Commander and was impressed. There's one con that there's probably nothing I can do about without swapping out the onwall M22's for the bookshelf M22's. While listening to music, there seems to be a hole in the upper bass somewhere that the bookshelf's supplied that I don't have with this setup. I'm sure there's probably a method to check this out, but I don't know what it is at the moment. (Software, microphone, etc).

Room Eq Wizard software, some cabling and a radio shack spl meter and you're all set.

Thanks fredk, I've installed the software and will pick up an SPL meeter when I have the money. 2-4 weeks from now.

I've been able to improve the sound some by switching my L/R from small to large. Before while watching a "Police" concert blu-ray, I could only hear Sting's lower bass notes, now I can also hear the upper ones.
