I placed my order for my new Ascend speaker system last night. It consists of 3-340's and 2-200's. I call it an odyssey, because I requested B-stocks (based on everyone's strong recommendation of them) and they only have the 200's in stock as B-stock. Therefore, I will have to wait until 3 B-stock 340 cabinets roll along that they can fill with drivers, etc. and send to me.
Like everyone else, when I called I got David F and I placed my order. He was courteous and there were no problems. He didn't do any suggestive selling, which I normally abhore. However, since I forgot to order the brackets to mount the 200's, it would have helped. I had to order them over the net this morning.
The good news is that I am also selling my system in pieces. However, I have inquiries on all three, so it may be gone before I get the my whole new set. My center channel is already boxed up.
I have also bought my new sub, a used SVS CS 20-39 plus and Samson amp. They should be here middle of next week if all goes well.
As this system arrives in pieces, I'll follow-up on this post. So far, just an order placement and anticipation!
