Ugh. I called last month and the lady said November (as in this November). I could tell by the way she said it she had no idea when they would come out.
I like the fact they require

Yep. I've been calling my local dealer here monthly since the press release (early January) and they said June, then July, then Sept, then Oct, now Nov..... so I'm thinking it'll be around 2023 when we finally see them. LOL

And yes, the 63mm mounting depth is nice!

Rest of the specs for anyone who wants to have a gander:

I have the new polk DB component set. While they sound decent at moderate levels. The tweeters distort at higher listening levels. I have 70 watts going to them and have them crossovered at 80 hertz and they still distort. I figure it's probally that cheap passive crossover causing it. I might biamp them and see if I can get some clean volume out of them. Just beware these are entry level speakers.
