Been waiting on this package since I ordered it on Nov 1st.

Not sure how these things happen.

Sometimes you just can't win.

    Not even sure if I want to open the damn thing!

    Is that even double boxed, hard to tell.
    2 channel: Anthem 225 Integrated amp; Parasound Ztuner; TechnicsTT SL1350; Vincent PHO-8 phono pre; Marantz CD6005 spinner; Polk SDA2BTL's; LAT International speaker cables, ZU Mission IC's and power cables all into a PS Audio Dectet Power center.

    Other; S60'S, M10 series II, M7C's, Hafler XL600 amp, RB-980BX, Parasound HCA-1500 amp , P5 preamp, all in storage. All vintage Polk have had crossover rebuilds and tweeter upgrades.

    Someone had to say it.

    The thing was delivered to my Wife's office. She just got home, saw this pic reference and told me how a co-worker said "it's a major award."

    We had a freaking forklift go through an Ampino that was shipped to a client of mine. The box is the size of the blades.... not sure how that happened but the damage was definitely a total loss and UPS couldn't exactly deny the insurance claim on that one.

    I wonder who put the forklift through it.

    Ill bet that Ampino was on the bottom row of units stretch wrapped to the wooden skid.
