    I'm still waiting on packaging to be sent to Okiepolkie. Until then, this is on hold.

    Treitz3 - You have one ready?

    Treitz - Did you get the labels?

    Zach - I have some packaging ready to ship to you, you still around?

    Mark, I hope you see this and I'll try to send you an e-mail later as well:

    I received packaging yesterday (empty boxes and foam) for 1 IHT and another box as well that looks like it could be a sub box. These must have been shipped to me from Polk Audio by mistake. The Pack Slip had your name on it Mark. I'd be glad to ship these to the correct person.

    Let me know...

    Argh. Eric....I'll get in touch with you offline. Thank you very much.

    Can you weigh those boxes please?

    10 and 7 lbs. Looks like the Polk order # is 725983-1 and the boxes are in great shape.

    Guys, I'm going to be wrapped up in the Capital Area Audiofest this week and weekend, so you'll have to hold off on labels until next weekend. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    When, how and where was I supposed to receive this label? I must have missed this post until tonight when I was going to remind you that it has been sitting here, packed up and ready to go for months now.

    So Mark forgot about this? Well, I'm ready to buy one at Polkebay for $249, but I will take this one for $100.

    If this is still open-I'd like to be added to the list--I've been trying to talk a friend of mine into getting one of these--This would be the perfect opportunity to have her hear it first hand (and not in the middle of a crowded aisle at BB).
    Doro, do you still have my contact info?

    Thanks

    Seeclear, you ready?

    Treitz, please PM me again as I ditched all my PM's for some strange reason. I'll call you direct to sort out the email issue.

    Okiepolkie, did you ever receive packaging? If not PM me and let's talk on the phone.

    Got this today. I guess I haven't checked this thread in a while, so it was a surprise. I'll probably get it set up this weekend and give it a try.

    Thanks again, Polk Audio, Doro, et al!

    Good to hear. I'm quite sure you will enjoy it. Polk did a damn fine job with this. Even fooled my dog a couple of times, making her look in a direction where there was no speaker.

    I'll have labels sent to Seeclear the weekend. Thx to Treitz for the storage of things. I'm not the fastest dude when it comes to getting these items shipped and making sure they get to and fro....sorry gang.

    Doro, I don't know how the order should go and I don't want to step on any toes, but Disc Jockey is close to me just down in Colorado Springs, if you wanted us to arrange a direct handoff, that might be possible. Let me know.
