Dave, could you make the center stout enough to let a 50" plasma sit on top? Those bastards are like 80 lbs, but putting the tv on top of the center would eliminate most issues for me at least.

The center will easly hold twice that weight

And not a bad way to tame whatever vibrations there may be in the cabinet.

What about the current Sierra-1 in the "center" config (lying on side)? I was wondering if it would safely take the weight of an LCD TV that is no heavier then 50 lbs for extended periods.

Dear all,

Was wondering, would Ascend be able to ship a pair of the new towers down to Singapore? If so, any estimates on the cost?

Thanks!

any word on when the new towers will be finished? did i miss any posted updates?

Unless I missed something, it doesn't look like the NrT option is listed on the Sierra-1 order page. Is there any information on when this will be available again?

I am not sure the option was ever on the order page.

Best to give Ascend a call.

Regrettably, due to our vendor supply lines being cut off because of the situation in Japan, NrT crossover production has been delayed by several months. The good news is that we have secured and approved replacement components (capacitors) from a different source and production has resumed.

I would estimate that we are, perhaps, 3-4 weeks out from receiving the parts -- at which time the NrT upgrade option will be listed on our website.

Thanks so much for your patience!
