I'm not sure I've posted since I've been back to the States. Arrived about 4 weeks ago from Iraq (we flew in on Memorial Day to a huge fanfare, pretty cool). Had to mind my P's and Q's for a while and wait for the right timing, but today my roommate and I drove down to Florida and picked up my Martin Logan Summits from Mark Edmiston (Edmiston on these forums). All I can say is I can't wait to get these up and going!
The trip home was a little dicey. We were in a Ford F250, and had the speakers in their original boxes in the bed, with a tarp covering them. Of course when we got into Georgia, we hit the worst rain I've seen in a long time. I was cursing left and right and trying to make it through as quick as possible. After all that, we hit one more little storm on the way back, but the boxes didn't suffer too badly. They got a little damp on some of the corners, but upon unpacking at home and checking the speakers, they arrived completely unscathed.
It'll still be a little bit (still acquiring the last of the things I need for my 2 channel rig) before I can listen to them, but my do they seem right at home in my Living Room. As of now, they're sitting next to the 1980's Infinity QLS-1's that they're replacing. Not sure the QLS's are too happy, so that arrangement won't stay that way long, as I'm afraid they ML's might get mangled while I'm asleep.
Anyway, I'm extremely happy with these, especially at the price I picked them up for. And of course I'm proud to officially be a member of the club!
