Anyone else order Caladans from Clayton Shaw?


After watching videos and reading positive reviews I ordered a pair of Caladans. It’s been 2 weeks and I have never received an email confirmation of sale.  The charge on my cc was from Spatial Audio.  I have called and left VMs twice and also emailed Clayton’s info address. Crickets ! 

Has anyone else experienced this?  I assume he’s extremely busy but I’m getting a little anxious.

Thanks for the update!  I placed my order on December 29th, so maybe in two more months, I will have a confirmation.  I am okay with waiting but would love to know a timeline.  This is the 1st time I have ordered something from a smaller company, so I wasn't sure what to expect.

I am taking the time to do more research around the components I will run with these.  I am wide open and hoping to start this build at a good spot.  If they were to show up today, I would start with my Schiit Ragnarok 2 and a streamer.  I had the pleasure of talking to Clayton at Capitol Audio Fest, and he noted he runs some Schiit amps at home paired with these.  They had tubes at CAF, and it sounds great.  Looking forward to deliveries and feedback from others.  

I spoke to Clayton over a month ago about a late December order. There were some problems with Square taking payment, but nothing on his end. It's just growing pains, in my opinion.  Some of the addresses and finishes were muddled from Square.  It was a good discussion - he was excited to get building these.  I am not too pressed and have other things to tinker with.  I ordered white oak (putting them in my relaxing living room with a gray-stained wood floor.

 

PP note

Feedback for those who have used PP: I have used that with other vendors, and I believe there's a 30-day timeout.  I saw it trying to get some go-fast car parts during COVID with supply chain issues.

I spoke with Clayton last week. I have invoice 173.  He thought I might see my speakers by the end of April but couldn’t commit 100%. I’m hoping for the next 2-3 weeks.

232 for me...
