OK FELLOWS.. the time is near.. i just got the e-mail from amie with my package tracking numbers. i just about peed myself. speakers should be here by thursday/friday at the latest.

pretty awesome build time from the custom cabinet shop.. original estimate was 5-6 weeks, and it has only been exactly 28 days since i ordered. 4 WEEKS.. not to bad..

i was totally caught off guard.. i dont know if i will be able to sleep tonight. i had plans to go camping this weekend, but not any more.

i am gonna go ahead and start the set up process tomorrow. gotta get final cables, speaker wire, clean out entertainment center, etc..

ya'll be lookin for set up questions from me this weekend on the forum.. i will have plenty.. respond quickly.. whats that you say?? you had plans?? THEN CANCEL THEM.. MY SPEAKERS ARE COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oops, i did pee myself

Too cool John. Refresh my memory. What are you getting?

Don't forget that if you follow the tracking number at the FedEx web site, the speakers get to Mississauga (or something like that), and then for 24 to 36 hours there doesn't seem to be any movement. Don't worry they're moving. Suddenly, FedEx will post that they arrived in, and left Memphis, and will be in your town soon. Just don't be discouraged by that lull of info when they're in Mississawhatever. And keep us posted.

Man I love this. It's almost as good as when mine arrived.

By the way, Walgreens has protective underwear. I use 'em on my 91 year old mother, bless her heart.

thanks guys.. i am getting M60's, a 150, and QS8's. custom cabinets in the dark oak with burnt sienna grills. my new receiver(onkyo 701) and dvd player(pioneer 563a) are still in their respective boxes.. i didnt want to pull them out til the speakers got here.. i have been reading the manuals to prepare, but units are still in boxes.

funny jack.. they show to be in 'mississauga' as we speak. too late for the protective underwear now!!

tom- i have some spare valiums to help knock me out.

i am definitely excited!!

Congrads....now make sure we get plenty of pics and a LONG review of the entire set up and first impressions. We all know that this will be no problem for you John. I just ordered my VP150 today to finish of my audio stuff and I'll be getting my TV this weekend. So I too can't wait to set up everything in my new apartment over the next couple of weeks. I'll get some pics as soon as everything is finished. Anyway, have a great weekend and we'll miss all of your crazy comments, but we know where you'll be.

You mean I got Mississauga right the first time? Without having to go look it up? Holy cats! I'll ride that triumph for a week (you'll understand why when you get old. It's called short term memory loss ).

Well the tracking will probably show them sitting in Mississauga (wonderful, Jack ) all day. But when you get up tomorrow morning. TA DA! However, keep us posted. OH Boy!

You'll have the same speaker setup that I do. Don't over hype yourself so you set yourself up for disappointment, but I'm looking forward to hearing what you think, and PICS! PICS! PICS!

this is san angelo.. it will ALWAYS be the same.

i already got 2-3 friends biting the bit to come audition my speakers. maybe i can start an AXIOM revolution in our little west TEXAS town. i am gonna call one of them to help run speaker wire thru the attic. i dont think my wife will be much help. but she is ready to be "WOWED". so am i.

Like a kid on Christmas Eve, you are John!

I too am really excited for you. That camping trup definitely just got cancelled. I can't wait to hear your thoughts!

Congrats!
