HELMHOLTZ, sorry . Can't spell today .

They are processing reservations from monday morning. I reserved at Monday 8:17am and received my invitation to purchase this morning.

Yes, it was completely done without anyones help. Except the occasional cleanup help from my wife. I have adjustable brackets for the center channel speakers, but have found the top one will need to be about 16" away from the wall to get the proper projection, due to the angle and the 9' ceilings.

The center channels crossovers have accuately match components (about 5 lbs worth) and the drivers were selected out of the bunch to ensure they matched as closely as possible to each other. They don't show it in the pictures, but each weights about 40 lbs and have very clear transparent sound, never harsh. They are the only part of my last HT that I could not let go of and I cannot say how much I enjoy there sound.

I have not tweaked the projector yet, as I wanted to get everything in the loop (990) before I did so, as I find there is always impact by anything added. No matter how good it is..

Still got more than a day of wait lists.. Thanks for the update Hobie..

Yup, I reserved mine around 7:30 Monday morning and just got my availability notice. (It says it was sent at 02:36 CDT, but I just received it. I guess those electrons didn't spring for a non-stop)

Reservation - Sun 4/17/2005 11:56 PM

Ordered.

I have been going over the photos you posted for the second and third time trikos . The more I look the more I realize what a wonderful job you did . It was quite imaginative to build in the acoustic treatment of the room the way you did . When you finish with the decorating and such let us know . I really am interested in how it all looks as a complete unit .
Unfortunately I live in a rental house and cannot tear my room apart or make major adjustments . I will be moving in the near future and may need to pick your brain on how to do a few things if you don't mind .
Again thanks for the pics .

Thanks for the feedback, and you are welcome to pick over whats left..

Once I have the finished product, I will post an update..

Trikos, what an incredible job!!! Wish I had a basement which wasn't water logged to try something like this. JIm

Thanks to the compliment. I am luck so far with water, have never had a problem.
