I sure hope so! Shouldn't they be "on the water" soon?  :drool:

Our first shipment of V60 cabinets and VSS subs left Guangdong Jan 25 and should arrive here in the next two weeks.  A week through customs and we can begin shipping.

VLA cabinets did not make this 40ft container and the first of them won't arrive till end of March.  We will supply loaners until that time (I have two pair of STIII woofer columns on hand--the VLA is basically that speaker with the addition of a side-firing 15" PR).

end of March :cry:

Are the STIII columns still made out of that synthetic granite?  Could they in effect actually be better than the new design for the VLA, because of that construction?  I think the MLS version will look better though.  I ask because it is nearing decision time for me.

Yes, the STIII cabinets are constructed from 1" synthetic granite and 1" MDF.  The mls VLA's are 2" MDF.

Brian, what is the approximate weight of a single STIII woofer column?
