The decision period for the invite I received Thursday was 7 days. Funny thing, I did not notice the change in decision period since I was hurrying to to complete the order form.

I don't know if this improves anyone's perspective on this shipment/reservations schedule or not, but here goes anyway....

My reservation was confimed received at 9:02PM EDT on 4/17. I am assuming that this would place me in the first batch of reservations.

I received my invite to convert to firm order on Sunday 5/8 at 6:28PM on 5/8.
I did'nt however, place the order until the following day (Monday 5/9)at 2:50PM EDT.
I immediately received confirmation of the order (2 emails).

I have not received however, any confirmation of shipment and/or tracking number.

Outlaw has advised me that my order will ship at the beginning of next week.
So I assume that the first shipment of units are still being processed considering that my reservation was in 2 minutes after the website opened.

There seems to be a couple of streams of decline times. But the latest I have seen for "wait list" reservation time, that got an order is still 2pm on the 18th.

If some people got the 5 or 7 day decline order, then we should be seeing additional people getting offers, unless that was the second wave..

trikos: You seem to be awfully anxious about all of this. Maybe too anxious? One presumes you'll get your unit in due time. Can you please remind us what the date/time coordinates are for your reservation?

PodBoy,

Sure I am anxious, but if you read through the forums, I think you will find I am not alone..

I just spend the last 6 months planning and building a substantial theater room (approx 3500cu ft) and was at the point over a month ago of being completely done, except for sound. This included building 8 speaker and an Infinite Baffle sub that is over 150 cu ft in size (-1db@20hz). Trust me, it was a lot of work and sure I am anxious to fire it up.. smile

Since, my original plan was to buy another companies pre-amp (because I thought the 950 was getting a bit dated) I had put in for a purchase of a 7100 B-stock, which fell apart because the stock ran out. Even though the website still shows the 7100 as being available a month later.

Secondly, the 990 was "just coming out" So I cancelled my "other" pre-amp order and got on the "waiting list" to get a package deal:

Tuesday, April 19, 2005 9:15 pm (according to Outlaws email)

The part I find frustrating about this process is having to guess whats going on in the first place. What would be wrong with Outlaw posting an update every couple of days to let people know the status?

JMHO..

Trikos, can you post some pics of your HT? I would be very interested to see how you designed it and set it up. Maybe with some IB sub pics too? TIA

Trikos - I'm with you on the anxiety level, like you I've just spent the last 6 months building a HT in my basement - I'm just finishing up some acoustic treatments. Like you, I was set to buy something else (along w/ the 7100) when the 990 was announced. I was extremely happy with the announcement, but the wait has been a bit trying. I was traveling when the reservation in April was open, luckily I was able to get home at 9:45 (45 minutes after the opening) and place my intent. Thursday I received the invite to buy, which I did (990 & 7100).

Now that I know it's coming I'm focusing on completing the HT - although I also need to buy a rack. I'll probably receive my equipment at the end of the coming week, which is fine for me. The next big decision: what DVD to play 1st?

Best of luck - your sub sounds awesome.
