It's about time!

It's finally Friday!!!

 

[Tomorrow]

What is the issue with your room treatments, Greg? Mine looked like they needed finishing. Good price....but looked the part.

Happy Friday, BTW.

Just wasnt what we were looking for; we had thoughts of it looking like fine wall art. Since our HT is in a the 'Great Room' we have to be very careful on our selection of products. I got hung up on price on this deal and tried to go inexpensive. On top of all this, the panels were either very DYI in quality or they were damaged in shipping. Glen says it's probably a little of both and he is letting me send them back.

I did place them behind the mains and I have to say...I could hear a pretty big difference. Very tight bass and better seperation of the music.

I dont understand; I have downloaded the manual, cut one end off of the 1/4 jack to be used for the 12v trigger and I have my screwdriver out to install the modules in the chassis but the UPS guy is still not here. It is Friday correct?

I feel your pain, brother. When my first RPA-1 was delivered, the UPS driver didn't show up until after 4pm! They're normally here around noon. I was starting to twitch by the time she showed up.

Just pull up a picture on their website and stare at it for a while to get yourself calmed down a bit. It'll show up...really.

I just hate waiting for stuff; it drives me crazy. I have to have purchased items the second I pay for them. When I purchased that giant DLP two days ago it was 15 minutes before my dealer was closing. I told him delivery now or no deal. He said man you are always doing that to me and there is noway we can get that thing to you until late tomorrow. I just shrugged my shoulders and starting walking out and he said stop. He ran to the back and got two guys and told them to load it up and get it to my house now. One guy mumbled something about missing his kids b-day because of this. I felt like a jerk but what the heck; I wanted my TV. The delivery guys beat me to my house, carried it in a and unpacked it. They started to disconnect my plasma and I told them they didnt have to do anything else. He stated that it was part of their job to connect everything and set it up and make certain it all worked properly. I just said nope, hit the road and I will tell the owner you did all that for me. He seemed less pissed after that.

Talking about a man who needs his instant gratification! Just sit back and have a few while you wait on the UPS guy, ohh and get a dolly to roll it to your rack with .

 

[ParadigmDawg]

no way; we had way too much to drink last night.

I guess I need to go pull everything out from the wall and move stuff around so the amp has a home. It sucks because my new stand doesnt arrive until the 14th so I have to do it all over again at that point.

Don't worry, if something happens to the truck today, you'll only have to wait till Tuesday.

Man, that is just MEAN!

 

[ParadigmDawg]

I just cried a little bit...

It would be interesting tracking info though. You go to ups.com and type in the number to see "That truck exploded today. There will be a temporary delay in shipment."

When I left Minneapolis on Tuesday I almost rerouted my flight to TN so I could just pick up the amp myself but I didnt know how to carry on a 95lb box!

I ordered by Denon 3805 from Dakmart and happened to be home on the day it was scheduled to be delivered. I kept checking the front door and the internet all day. Finally, the internet said, "Packaged delivered". So I rush outside... nothing. I ended up having to call the shipping company. They radioed the driver who said he delivered it around the side of the house. It had been sitting out there for hours. I was happy to have it but boy was I pissed he decided to get creative with that package.

Holy cow; my side sprinklers are on right now; I hope it's not over there!

Yeah, what are they thinking sometimes? I remember being home when I had a smaller package delivered (don't remember...hard drive or something). I heard the truck pull up, so I was ready to get the door...and then I just watched the guy walk around the side of my house. He reached over my block wall and placed the package on top of some stuff that I had sitting over there. Then he just got back in his truck and left. He never came to door or anything! Must admit, I couldn't understand the thought process on that one. If I hadn't been home, I never would have found it over there. It was in a location that I hardly ever look at.

Every noice I hear sounds like a UPS truck...
