It will still be a while before we have a specific product page for the Sierra Tower as we want to fulfill all of the pre-orders first....

The sign of a great business

Just put in my order for Espresso towers... Can't wait!

Have to part with my less than one year old Espresso Sierra's but it's for a good cause.

Dave, would a ribbon tweeter version of both the Sierra-1 & Sierra tower be anywhere close to a possibility down the road? Seems there is a growing fan base for ribbons, and the cost does not seem to make the buyers' flinch. It would certainly be a build to order semi-custom thing I would think.

Just a thought. I am happy with my NrT Sierras right now, and I certainly don't have the coinage to consider something like that, but I'm sure many have thought about this!

The only set that has shipped yet is Brandon's (merrymaid520). The status as of today is that the local cabinet assembler is in the process of finishing all of the cabinets. They want to allow a few additional days of curing time in between the different layers of finish in order to ensure high quality results. This has set us back about 1 more week so I expect that we will start shipping within 2 weeks at the longest.

We will probably start final billing, invoicing and generate shipping labels at the end of this week so that we can fully focus all of our manpower on assembly, testing and packaging once the cabinets are delivered.

As a woodworker I know what the cabinet makers are going through. All that hard work can be ruined by a poor finish. If they are using solvent based products it is imperitive that it cure thoroughly before applying subsequent applications. As they say "You can't hurry love"...or "We will not ship any speaker before it's time".

I do like a great ribbon as well as a great planar tweeter, very refined and defined sound. I also like the efficiency of those high freq drivers as it gives so many options in designing a setup. Good question sir and you earn a starbucks on me

Has it been mentioned what the thread size is for the spikes? I want to see if I can reuse a set of Soundcare Superspikes that I have before I try and sell them. Love the all-in-one design that doesn't harm the wood floor.

Would anyone care to take a guess at what this is a picture of

Spike foot insert thread size is 1/4 - 20. Spike feet with floor protectors will be included with the Sierra Towers.
