I'm fuckoff.
Right, I'm back. I missed the weather here.
Got the (same) driver back I sent away, its now working. God knows what happened and I don't really care.
Thanks to Simon at hifisound for helping me out, he's a good bloke. Hugh vanished off the face of the planet, which didn't help things at all, I don't know where he is. Ho him.
RIGHT, so how do they really sound?
Again, the rooms due a proper setup but they are just amazing. They are scarily dynamic. They handle gentle passages with such delicacy, so many nuances just hang in the air in front of me. I just ran a CD recording of a rave I went to the other month through them and wow, they shook the flat and it all sounded effortless!
I'm actually going to start a system pics thread shortly, when I've got everything in place but for now, just going to play some tunes and (finally) enjoy my babies!

BTW, I just want to say thanks to the seller of these speakers, Harry.
He was as upset as me when he heard the news and was very helpful in providing the insurance details (of the delivery which he arranged for me).
I'd happily buy from him again and it was good to speak to someone with such a passion for this hobby.
Brilliant Martin, V Glad things have moved on nicely - Great news !!
That's great news Martin, we all like a happy ending(!)
So a proper welcome to the Usher Appreciation Society, then?

Cheers dudes!
Yeah I'm right there with you chaps now. Can't wait to get the spikes I n the stand and my schuko plug mains filter in the mix too...
Martin, you'll have to let me pop round one day and hear your dancers, I cant imagine how good they sound!
I am pleased everything seems to have worked out for you Martin. Like many others I have been following this thread with hope for a favorable outcome for you and Harry and now it all seems to have fallen into place.
Enjoy your new babies and don't forget the system pics. You know how much we love pics here on AOS...
