It is December 1, 2024 - Do you know where your Caladans are????

Not a soul??  If in a month I still don't know either there will be a decision to be made.

"Hasn't Clayton provided a status update on the issue?"

Last update I saw was a month ago from Clayton on his forum that nobody can join and nobody other than Clayton posts in anymore.

Just saw this update issued today by Clayton.

My pair shipping today.

And what before my wonderous eyes should appear..........walnut baffle caladans.  Would post a picture if this forum didn't make that so hard to do.

Will be damned if I can find any bolts in the "Hardware" box to mount the legs and feet. #SMH

Nobody answering the phone at Clayton Shaw Acoustics Lab today.

Did get an email response and the Caladan bolts were 2 day shipped.

7 days later, no bag of bolts has been delivered.  USPS has lost the shipment evidently because they show it never left OK City.

Went to Lowe's and bought eight 1/4x20 bolts to mount the leg braces.   Robbed the four GAIA feet off another speaker I already own that also used the 1/4x20 GAIA bolts (which are proprietary and can't be purchased at a hardware store) and got the speakers up and running.

They are still in the break in period in my workshop, 144 hours as of this morning. Clayton recommends 200+ hours. So far they sound amazing. I’ve got zero complaints about how they sound. Bass is excellent and highs are sparkly (I’m not good at describing sound, but know when it sounds good). Don’t think any subwoofer will be required once they are moved into the main system. For sure one is not needed in my workshop.

Ten days later, January 13, 2025, the bolts and nuts to attach the GAIA III feet arrive. Two day shipped via USPS on January 3, 2025, what a cruel joke our national post system is these days.
