Just too excited to sleep. I get my LSiM 703 tomorrow. FedEx has it at its facility in Chicago and will deliver it tomorrow. This wait is killing me!!

I will take some pics and upload it tomorrow.

Along with LSiM 703 pair I also get my LSiM704c. I did order a sub woofer too (DSW PRO 660wi) but its back ordered and is to arrive second week of September.
Will be hooking these to my Denon 4306 and use KEF KHT 3005 satellite as surround for now.
Denon 2910 will be CD player.

Man this wait is killin me!!

    Chicago Rocks , loved my time spent there. Tilted Kilt didn't hurt either.
    Congrads on the new speakers.

    And they are here. Hooked it up and played some Eagles(Hell Freezes Over) and Neil Young (Unplugged) and.....well got blown away. Sometimes one thinks why I did not do this earlier. Sound is so beautiful with amazing depth.

    I had a quick question. I am not Bi Wiring the speakers. In that case does it matter if I wire it on top slot or bottom slot on LSiM 703?

    Here are a few images. I have placed it on chair right now as stand was shipped today. Should be here by Monday.

    Have you seen this place for custom made center channel stands: http://www.gwizpro.com/stands/proddetail.php?prod=SCStands

    Nice speaks! The 703, 704 combo was the best value of the year IMO.

    The chairs are temporary till Monday.
    I bought SANUS SYSTEMS SF-30B Steel Speaker Stand which is to arrive by Monday.

    @WLDock .. thanks for the link to custom speaker stand. I will look into that.

    Long listening session is about to begin.

    Oh my girlfriend and I also plan on opening a bottle of wine and spending some time in front of speakers this weekend. She likes Indigo Girls so I had ordered a CD set for her. I think I can make her fall in love with the speakers. :smile:
