Congrats RR. I share your assessment on the wood finishes. I love some of those, but less is more in the office sometimes.

Not to worry....Sarah was on vacation the week prior, she is back this week, but has spent most of it trying to fix my mistakes while she was gone.

RR,

Not to worry....It was administrative mistakes....All the speakers were perfect, as usual!  In other words  S.N.A.F.U

I am on the Speaker Waiting List as James P from FL., order placed 6/21 still classified as new. They are being shipped directly to my office where they will be immediately placed in service.

I changed the placement of my existing office speakers by pushing them farther back.  I don't like the sound at all. It is more distant. I believe that these TRAPEZIUMS will be less finicky regarding placement. I have plenty of space to put them.

The traps are shipped. They should arrive on August 2nd.

The TRAPS arrived today, packaged in a box that would withstand a catastrophe.

I pulled them out, and unwrapped them and set them up. I found that the speaker terminals would accept the bananas that I had terminated on the speaker cables.

Well, as you can imagine, it is a different presentation from what I had before. Sitting on top of the desk they project upward but I can tell that the sound is coming from a lower position than my ear had become accustomed to.  You really can't judge them by their initial playing time with AM radio, as out of the box they were a bit dry. Nevertheless I began playing CD later on and the sound was better than the AM radio.

They look better on the desk aside the computer monitor  than the old setup did. I will take them through a full break in and report back soon.
