I heard from the store on Thursday and spoke with them yesterday. The Premiums are in. I'm planning to go get them this afternoon. I will plan to hook them up when I get home and, as time permits, play some stuff over a week or two to see what I think. I need real time in front of the system listening, not just background music while I cook, even though that would help break the Premiums in. That "real time" has been hard to come by.

I'm not all that excited, oddly enough. If anything, I feel almost matter-of-fact about the whole exercise. The heavy pressures and stress of work have much to do with that, I'd suspect, as I come home drained most days (yesterday was particularly bad). I am, however, interested to see how much of a difference the Premiums will make. I'm hoping there's something to get excited about after I put some time in with them.
