Here is the "original" box:
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
I just got my pair last night. They were packed well and arrived without incident.
I'm going to be putting them in a slender TL floorstander (like my Tidy TL) except with a tweeter this time. The Aurum Cantus G2Si ribbons on sale at PE were really interesting me until I realized that they use a 110mm faceplate. So when I build my boxes I have to commit to that loony faceplate size. In light of that, I'll be using a set of XT-25's crossed over at about 3KHz.
Looking at the AC's pictures there doesn't seem to be any reason they couldn't have used a 104mm faceplate. Too bad, they lost a sale due to being non-standard.

As of today, I have sent an email to everyone that has expressed interest. If you have not received an email from me but think you should have, please say so here or send me an email.
I have sent the following people emails more than a few days ago and am still waiting for a response: habsrock93, jerishi, mojopin, Sky123, Scott Lutes, eparson. Please let me know if you are still interested so that I can declare your drivers up for grabs if you are no longer interested.
I have also sent the following people emails within the past day or two: Roy, rlrohlfs, gmilitano, Valeriano, Kraz, hifiZen, bluegti, Secips.

A note to all the Canadian folks:
It appears that all but two shipments I sent to Canada so far are getting held up in Canadian customs (you can check the delivery status yourself using the delivery confirmation number that USPS should have emailed to you), so don't be worried if you haven't received your drivers yet. I have no idea why they are being held up for so long, but they better not be opening my nice packaging!

planet10 waves hand... mine sailed thru customs without even a glance... no GST/No PST/no $5 processing fee. Same day i got 4 James OPTs that got the same non-treatment from customs.
Sometimes Canada customs can be a bit recalcitrant... late last year a package that took 1 day to get from WA to customs in Vancouver took over a month to get cleared.
