That stinks, what good is a pre/pro without an amplifier.

You should have tracking numbers in the next day or so that'll give you more specific information, that's just my best guess.

Well, tomorrow I'll be taking delivery of not only my Outlaw 990, but I'll also be getting my new updated 12.3 drivers for my SVS. Friday, I will then be receiving my Outlaw 7700 along with my new Signal Cable, Balanced XLR cables. Christmas in August.

Excellent! So you'll have it all in time for the weekend.

Yes Sir, I can not wait.

Been thinking that it is probaly good that the pre/pro comes today and the amplifier comes Friday. Reason, that will give me time to do the software update on the 990 before getting everything hooked up. Is there anything special I need to know before doing the update other than "follow the directions"?

Well, the 990 came inn today, man this thing is a monster. Can't wait to get home and unpack it.

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!
Enjoy your new toy...
I hope you get the amp shortly...
the wait can be painful...

I think having the 990 first will probably be helpful in lessening some of the overwhelming "I've got to hook up what?!" feelings that are a pretty natural reaction to getting any new surround sound processor hooked up. For the update, I think you've got all you need with the "follow your directions" mantra. If there are hiccups, the crowd here (and the update thread) should be able to keep you on track.

Okay, did the software update and everything went fine. Could not get it to reset itself at first and then I realized I forgot to toggle the OPR/SVC switch back to OPR. After that, system reset itself and now I'm ready for the amp to get here.
