Title: 8" Based NX-Oticas
Post by: RonP on 29 Jul 2021, 04:03 pm
Hey when will there be more info on these? Danny mentioned them in the NRD YouTube live session.

Also, what will they be called? NX-Ochos? NX-Otica8?

 :D

How about an NX-extreme with 8" passive drivers top and bottom ?

mwuhahahaha...

Interesting

I suppose we are 6-12 months away from anything new with all the manufacturing issues worldwide

It's definitely going to be a while, unfortunately.

Hobbs don't crush our hopes here as that means no XLS Encore Macro with an 8 inch.

I'm not crushing dreams, I'm just saying we're busy as heck & still trying to get NQ woofers in stock... And maintain stock on literally everything else.. lol

I think we have like 50-60 orders prepped, waiting on at least one part.. and another 40 orders that we dont have woofers for... Including half the X-series...

The woofers are finished, but shipping is a brutal bottleneck right now. We have about 400 that should be shipping within the next week or two. But that still means another 3 weeks on the sea, and a week or two getting thru customs. Assuming the ongoing delays unloading ships arent still a problem..

We're struggling to get and keep caps, inductors and resistors in stock.
I really hope things let up soon.
I know Danny still wants to hire more people, but its kinda pointless if we don't have the parts to pack & ship orders... :/

Hey Hobbs,
The whole GR research team are doing a fantastic job in difficult times. My post was a little tongue in cheek. Aussie humour.

Keep up the great work mate.

Hey at least Hobbs can CAD design all these designs for us in the meantime, just to drop in drivers and take measurements when the LTL truck finally shows up....LOL
