In the meantime our host will have to content himself listening only to that very musical octave between 16 and 32hz through the 21" Cabasse subwoofers. I offered to loan him a pair of the $45 Best Buy Insignia standmount speakers until his new ones are delivered, but he declined.

There isn't anything like them around where I live for sure. Looks like a tight squeeze going through a door. Thank you for sharing pictures of the speakers.

I'm expecting to send back the 1812's sometime in the very New Year.

4 Crates totalling 1450 lbs.

Everybody's invited.

It's quite a system. The power conditioners are Isocleans, the sources are a Rockwell turntable and an Exemplar Audio modified Denon universal player, the preamp is an Einstein, the amps are Parasound Halo monoblocks, the new speakers will be Acapella Triolon Excaliburs, and the subwoofers are two Cabasse monsters with 21" drivers. Of course the cables alone cost more than my entire system. Poverty sucks!

So I know I'm good for 1385#, but I don't know about 1450#:) Have you considered the fact that no speaker will ever sound good enough in your system after listening to the 1812's for a few months?

$4000 and a whopping big cabinet.
No problem.
But my little living room has been held hostage long enough.
