Got a pair off of eBay. Not much e-communication, but pretty fast shipping all done.
Worked late this eveing, so just spotted them in the garage (door was open expecting a Carver Pro ZR1600 Tripath amp yippee).
I will need to move the two Sony SA-WM500 that just didn't have the volume I expected from a 12-inch, 150 watt RMS package. The no-name A-Neutronics chinese made A-NS12 do pound much more than the Sony. That surprised me, because the 8-inch Sony SA-WM200 is a monster in my PC 2.1 stereo (a Sony TA-AX285 55 wpc integrated off the sound card, a pair of classic Optimus Pro-77 for mains off the Sony subwoofer--not one of my monster stereo systems (I have five stereos) but very good for the Internet and streaming audio from Internet radio).
The H-100 will only be used for my meager HT system.
I've got an old but TOTL Pioneer Elite VSX-99, Yamaha NS-A838 12-inch, 3-ways for L/R, a Yamaha NS-A835 (single) 12-inch, 3-way center, and a pair of Yamaha NS-A638 for surround duty. I have the no-name A-NS12 hooked up, they are a down-firing subwoofer, and the Sony on top. I'll put the Sony's in the closet, and stack the front-firing H-100 on top of the A-NS12 (and the HPM-900 for the Denon stereo will go on top of the stack).
Heck, if I drink another Bud I may tote em down to the FR and unpack them yet this evening.

Got one down and unpacked--I'm not gonna take off the plastic protection--hey nice touch--or the sticker and the front.
Nice heft, not superheavyweights like the old 15-inchers (amps died) but nice weight to them.
I will need to find some Y-adaptors to get them all connected LOL

I think that's why it's often referred to as flea bay. Good luck!

If you got it from the authorized dealer on ebay contact them and I'm sure they will send you one. I've installed many of these H-100s from them and they have been cool. If you don't want to wait you can pick one up anywhere pretty cheap.
