Now that it's out and there are owners who have them, I thought it made sense to start an "official" thread for this speaker so that owners can share their experiences and support the product.

Since actual shipping starts this week, I think people will be posting soon after.

This is geography discrimination. I ordered mine before Curtis went over to suck up to David and got a pair to take home.

It's all good - at least this way, Curtis PROBABLY won't follow through on the threat to make his mark on my Piano Black Sierra's before they ship.
I do believe he was going to moon me on the speakers - which is pretty scary ...

My "Golden Ears" disagree strongly: They start dropping off in the vicinity of 75Hz, and the response at 40Hz is completely inadequate to reproduce "live". Try a CD of Mahler 6, last movement, with the hits on the gigantic wooden box- my Sierras absolutely can't make a decent approximation of that sound at that moment (by themselves). A frequency response curve is one thing, but a musical moment with a wide range of instruments playing all at once is ENTIRELY something else.Based on my listening, I would say the Sierras get down to at least 40hz if not a little lower. For music they sound fantastic without a sub.
