    (Insert thumbs up here) Dave's b-stock is equal to many companies a-stock(at least mine was). You will be very pleased with that speaker package.

    Which Mackies?

    I believe they were the 624 monitor. A year ago at a home theatre get together we listened to the host's new high-end SVS sub (awesome sub) as well as the host's Paradigm Studio 20's, Klipsch Reference series bookshelfs, some higher line Polks (LSI?), and the Mackies. The Mackies were far superior. Most felt the self-amplified monitor did not play loud enough but the sound quality was terrific.

    Ooooops, I forgot to post.

    They showed up at 2:13!!

    I thought I heard a noise..... I raced upstairs, looked out the doorway...

    The Big Brown Truck was here!!

    Of course I helped him bring them in!!
    Packaged well, couple little dents in the boxes, but the speakers are doubled Boxed, and away from the sides/top/bottom.
    No issue there....

    Sound Awesome so far, look awesome as well!!

    Got alot of listening to do, but so far I am very impressed!! ( <that lil woof sounds nice).

    I placed an order for 3 natural Sierra's. Hopefully they'll be heading out soon.

    Nope, in fact, I just dropped my 340SEc off at UPS to send to Ascend as a trade-in, so I imagine someone else will get it as b-stock.
