Ascend Acoustic Ribbon Towers

[Pogre]

@Pogre – Sorry to read about the shipping snafu. You now have half a stereo pair .

I've been there myself. Back in 2007 when I got my original SongTowers, I received one speaker on a Friday. It was Labor Day weekend, so I had to wait until Tuesday for the other speaker. It was frustrating and angering, but before long I forgot all about that. Soon, you will too.

New SongTower speakers

Greg Yes, its Friday, and I am now at work! There are several pressing matters I must get off my desk today before I leave. There are 3 boxes that DHL says they'll deliver today. Two are now with the delivery courrier, and the 3rd is off in DHL land somewhere. I'm going on the assumption...

Ohhh... man. That would suuuucck!

I'm in a better place today. It's not the end of the world. I started this thread within a few minutes of my discovery, lol. At least today will have a better ending!

Apparently UPS strongly supports the Toole/Olive/Harman methodology of speaker comparisons in which it's done one speaker at a time, not in stereo pairs.

Stop - you're getting Amirm all excited!

Damn poges, I hate when that happens. As others, I’ve been there too. Of course that doesn’t help YOU much lol. First world problems for sure, but luckily, that’s where we live!!!! Although it’s looking a little 3rd world lately...


But like you said, today will finish much differently. I’m glad for you btw. That’s very exciting. Not only upgrading, but with very competent speakers indeed.
Btw, don’t you need a road trip to Mn? I’d be curious how my s-312’s sound compared to the ultras. Jus sayin...

It's in my neighborhood now!

That's walking distance! He was actually a little bit closer earlier and it's a big neighborhood so hard to say when it'll arrive still.

I'm up on my roof, posting from my phone right now and scanning the area. From this vantage point I can see most of the neighborhood...

My wife just texted me, as she usually does, to ask about the dogs...

Lololol

He's just kinda driving around the neighborhood. At one point he was almost to the next major street east of me, but now he's working his way back...

The suspense is killing me!

This thread made my afternoon.
I got both my towers right away but it was another month for the Horizon. Woulda been like getting the horizon first.

hope you’re busy now setting em up! Can’t wait to hear your thoughts!

I feel like this will be me tracking my Salk delivery in a few months time...

Nope. Best of my knowledge, he only ships roadrunner freight. You’ll know the day they are supposed to be there... don’t miss it!

Not quite, but...

I'm gonna get busy. Might run room correction too since it's early enough.

very nice, thankfully you got them before the looters did ! I just pray they don't look 'goofy', sorry I couldn't resist

 

[William Lemmerhirt]

Hey looks like you’re gonna have some new surrounds too!!!

I actually need to measure my wife's hatchback and see if they'll fit. I'm super tempted to just go pick em up!
