Hope this helps.
Those brand new EB1i's are rolling down some highway in your direction this very moment. Thursday is just around the corner. Hot damn!

I remember the feeling when I cracked open the big boxes, and there layed my beautiful EB1i's. Man, oh man. Don't forget to take some photos. Hungry eyes need to be fed.

Thanks for the info, Klipschpyro. I ordered a pair of PB1i's a while back to mate with my MC402. I have sold my IB1's which are no slouch, but I wanted something a bit smaller for my 14 X 16 room. I'll post my feedback when I get the PB's hooked up and compare them to my current IB1's. Thanks again.

Congrats...I liked the PB1i's but the EB1i's won we over.

Your dedication is proven with the 10hours of driving... You're lucky to have a GF that would do it with you, driving that is ! I would say that after about 100 hours you are going to see a world of improvment in what is already an exceptional level of hifi. Congrats on your purchase! EB1i's put you in a whole new league of playback! When your friends hear them you will love their reactions.

My recommendation would be at least 150hrs of break-in. My EB1i's came into their own at about 175-200hrs. Fun, fun, fun.....
