Hello Fellow Outlaws!

Just a brief update on the status of the Model 950:

The final “hiss-fix” has been tested and approved, and units are now back in production. This places us 99.99% of the way there. Over the next few days we will iron out the remainder of the logistical aspects of this process. At this point, we do not want to announce any dates but promise that more information will be made available soon. Thank you again for your continued patience.

Best Regards,

Scott

Cool!

Yaaahoooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm removing this post.

Scott,
Good news. Thank you.
Did you change the ability to remember speaker settings for each surround mode? How about the double bass?

In fairness to Will, since he removed his post, I'll drag my paws to the keyboard and remove mine.

ARF!

Geez Will - dont you already have two units in the house??

Good point. I'll delete my earlier post.

Thanks Scott. A few words for us still on the waiting list goes a looong way. We're pullin' for ya man!

Good news!

I will be a happy camper!
(Keep it together, keep it together, keep it together)- Bowfinger rant.

Will be awaiting the email confirmation!

Scott- I have to ask even if you can't quite answer yet...

If a person put their name on the list *now*, any estimate of when a unit would ship for them, once shipping restarted? I'm not even looking for a date, just what the delay would be. I.e., 6 wks (or whatever) from when shipping re-starts.

Man, I keep trying to find an alternative (Denon 3803, H/K 525, etc.), but none of those (will) have as flexible bass management in the digital or analog domains ...

Good to hear things may finally be coming to an end. Thanks Scott.

Is it finally time to exhale ?
Were any additional changes/improvements made?

Awesome. I was beginning to feel the pull of the competition. My amp needs a playmate.

I'm starting to feel like Charlie from "WILLY WONKA," anticipating the golden wrapper, in this case golden email. I have about 10 DVD's that I have been refusing to watch for about 3 months now, it's time baby!

CORVETTE may not be far from the truth....


"even though we are 99.9% of the schedule for re-starting production and shipments,"

That quote is from a July 17th post.

If moving from 99.9% complete to 99.99% complete (a change of 0.09%) takes 37 days then the remaining .01% should only take four days, two hours and 40 minutes. So they should be shipping by August 27, 7:41 PM.

I sure hope so! I let Scott talk me into the 770 this morning to go with my 950 I placed on the reservation list a couple of weeks ago. It should be here tomorrow and I don't think I can stand waiting for too long for that 950.
I know. It's been a long time coming and I'm sure it's worth the wait. I'm just not getting any younger is all.

Bill- You'd still have to wait for:

1) All the current owners who want to swap their units to get new ones, and,

2) All of the people ahead of you on the waiting list to get theirs.

Might be a while.

That's ok, I've been watching all this since last October and understand all the potholes they've incountered along the way. I can be patient. Besides, I'll have my 770 this afternoon and I can use my 1050 pre-outs on it until my 950 number comes up. Once they resume shipping, I expect another month or so wait, but that's ok.

I'm tickled with my 1050, but I'm definitely looking forward to the upgrade. Life is short, but I'll be happy if this is a Christmas present to myself. Beyond that, there is always the Rotel 1066.

Bill in Texas, I admire your patience.

Check with me again on Halloween. I have a spooky suspicion I may be feeling differently about fishing without getting a bite.

Well, it's now after "August 27, 7:41 PM". Any more movement on this?
