Here's some pictures Deb provided from the factory of my Alexia's being painted and prepped.

Special Thanks to Deb!

It's always so special to see the pics of the speakers being born.. err... being built at the factory. It's like you already know them before they even get delivered and you see them for the first time.

Hope the delivery still happens today Chuck!

The delivery happened yesterday with 6-8 inches of snow on the gound. My dealer and his team are the best. I will try to get pictures up today of before and after views. I will hold off for a while the speaker evaluation while I do some break-in. The only thing I will say is out of the crates the Alexia's sound better than my Sasha's. You'll see some other changes I made when I post pictures. I went from (1) REL G1 to (2) REL G2s. The reason I went with (2) G2s vs (2) G1s is due to the size of my room. While I loose a little on the bottom end up-to 3Hz. The G2s are faster and with (2) subs it really smoothed out my room.

The Alexia's are installed... Today was a great day with my dealers installers. The team was here for the entire day making many changes until the system was just right. First class install! I'll write more about the Alexia's as they break-in... So far sounding very good. As mentioned before, right out of the crate they sounded better than the Sasha's.
