Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    I sent an email to Erik yesterday. He said they are very busy filling these order and building new subs with these driver. He told me mine would go out next Friday. It seems Friday is the day they ship these driver upgrade orders. He also said they would send an email with tracking information.

    I place my order on May 24, if any of you want a reference point for your order.

    Just joined the forum today. First post!

    Ordered 2 12.3's on May 21st. I have emailed Erik a few times over the last 2 weeks, and he says mine will probably ship on Friday. It's been two Fridays and no shipment notification yet. I emailed him again today. I guess the demand is more than they anticipated.

    Thanks for the reference date on your SVS order. I suspect Erik must be getting a lot of email.

    The feedback here has been positive. Deeper, faster, more efficient. For the $95 with shipping, you can't go wrong!

    I just got a reply from Erik. He sent my shipment notification to me. He thought I had already received the notification. It seems they may have a problem with the notification process. I definately did not get it via email until he sent it with the last email. Anyway, my 12.3's are enroute and will be delivered on Aug-1 according to the tracking info.
    Schwarcw, you may want to email Erik and inquire on your order. Your's could be on the way too, since you ordered only 3 days after me. I think they are shipping on Fridays.

    Got mine a couple of days after my last post. It's a definite improvement over the ISD. Even my wife can tell the difference. More bass where there didn't seem to be bass before (mid-bass), plays louder, and clearer - not as muddy / boomy. Didn't give up anything either, it still shakes the shite out of everything. It may be more musical but I haven't given it a thorough test in that regard and I don't see it happening anytime soon.

    I don't remember the exact date but it was pretty early on when it was announced in another post. I believe it's been over one month.

    Ahhh, patience my good man patience. In my situation it's because I've got too much going on at the same time. Once everything is in its final position, then I'll start making changes and install the upgrades one at a time so I can hear and enjoy each improvement as it happens.

    I imagine, before long...

    There will be a new Ultra driver. Dont worry...

    The + and ISD drivers that were replaced were awesome drivers and SVS improved upon them. And even though the 50 pound beast of a woofer Ultra is awesome... its possible to upgrade it...

    One thing that comes to mind is even more excursion... 3" instead of 2"

    Matt, got your message. Since I'm new, I need 10 posts before it will let me reply. I'll get back with you.
    My two 12.3's will be here tomorrow (Tuesday)! Hopefully I will get them installed without messing up anything. I may need a forklift to lift this thing while I change them.

    Got mine, and was a little underwhelmed by the size... It is the 12.3 but for some reason I was expecting it to be a bit larger than it was.
