802 diamonds have arrived!!
And so, they have arrived! Safe and sound (or so it seems) tucked away in my garage...
But not before I had stopped the stupid freight people from removing the speaker boxes off the pallet and shimmy-ing them across the truck floor. "What are you guys doing??? They're supposed to remain on the pallets!" "They're only speakers..." "Those are $15,000. Put them back on the pallets." So they placed them back on the pallets but not before they chipped a piece of the black foam on one of the speaker bottoms... So stupid. How can they be so callous?? Anyway, hoping everything is safe and sound inside the boxes. They remained in their pallets up until 3 minutes before I got to the truck.

Congratulations!
Don't want to scare you, but my 802's had been damaged in freight. They aren't packed very well. However, B&W came out and did a great job fixing the damage. They will take care of you if necessary.

Congrats very nice, sorry, man I had a 12 k pinball machine destroyed, a 73" TV, and the list goes on. I really want a 303 McIntosh amp, but they must go freight. Ups while not great is a tiny bit bit better
 So any listening time to report yet, again very nice speakers! Sent from my iPad using A.Aficionado
