    Well OK, maybe another week or two. But I don't mind, I've been listening to my trusty old Sierra-1s A LOT lately. And stocking up on my first batch of SACDs so I can let the RAALs shine.

    Tower cabinets just arrived (finally) -- thanks for your patience. I am hopeful we will be caught up with all tower backorders by the end of next week.

    Im looking to upgrade to towers. I did a search and can't find what feet come with the towers? spikes, blunt feet or no feet at all?

    This review says that the towers come with "a set of robust floor spikes."

    The are basic rubbery spikes, they are all you really need. I don't use them since I am on a carpet

    "Rubbery spikes"? Strange. The towers I received a couple of months ago came with full-on adjustable metal spikes complete with protective discs for solid floors. they also come with stick-on rubber pads. or you can use without anything on the bottom for carpet. (Although...I've been told spikes are best for carpet to get a solid connection with the floor?? maybe just personal preference)

    Our towers have always come with high quality metal floor spikes with floor protection discs.

    They are actually black chrome plated aluminum.

    Please see attached and I hope this helps.

    Not a problem at all. I've been getting ready for them almost like a new baby is on the way. The new SACDs sound incredible on my Sierra-1s, and I was lucky enough to get an Oppo UDP-205 a few weeks before they announced their farewell. I'll miss Oppo. I've been spinning discs in their players going back to when the BDP-83 was new.

    Thanks again for your patience. Yeah, I was shocked at the news about OPPO. We use a BDP-105 here at the office and it has been great. I put my name on the interest list for the UDP-205 as they were all out when I checked
