Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it. I'm REALLY considering getting one or two of those (or another nice ID sub, and speakers >_>) if I ever get the extra money.

Was that a hint?

You'd better call Shenkers and get a delivery window. They might accomodate you now, but if left to decide they could put it out for delivery anytime in the next 3 days. They probably won't call you for an appointment until it's received in their SFO or SJC station.

Was received at SFO. It said they would call me to setup delivery since someone has to be present obviously.

From what I've heard, you might get a call tomorrow or not. If you call them, you can choose the day.

Only the front door step :) Yes, I mean at that price, I don't think I could build a comparable sub on my own so it just seems like the way to go.

I'll let you know :) The Tempest is big, but it is not too bad to move.

Think you'll be happy with it.
The driver helped me get it into the house, then I used those furniture moving disks to slide it on the carpet.

No, they are the old Bax Global network that Schenkers purchased not long ago. I just know how this works. Residential deliveries get low priority unless you grease the wheels (sometimes). As you know, I delivered alot of these subs through my partners. If I wanted to expedite things for a customer I knew, I'd make a call.

Unless you are in Ca already...it might take you a while to get here. I'll have some cold beer ready though :)

I have a cousin there who can pick about any lock so I need him in and out before you get there. Stop and get a beer on the way home.
