Default Delivery today hopefully

If all of the stars are aligned, I should be listening to a pair of Progression monoblocks this evening in my room.

Cool Beans Vern -- snap a couple pics of those black beauties, if you don't mind. P.S. Get out the back brace.

Best Sir,

Bob,

I am still sore from moving out ARC Ref 250's and then Momentum monoblocks. The dealer and his assistant will be here after they eat lunch. I am not lifting these amps. Once settled in I will take photos and post them.

They definitely have a lot of headroom. The first listen right out of the box was really disappointing as to be expected. The manual says 30 minutes but an hour was more realistic. They have a few more to go. The amps barey get warm. I remember touching the Momentums on loan and feeling the heat. More to come as we get to know each other.
