the seller said he called and they dont have any boxes. I personally would verify that with Emotiva. If you are going to have him ship it, I would ask him to take it to a UPS store and have them pack it. It may cost you extra, but worth it. I have had too many items arrive damaged because of poor packing. |

I wouldn't doubt that Emotiva doesn't have a surplus of boxes to sell. Paper products are getting harder to come by and selling at a premium prices. Working my entire career in the printing industry, I've never encountered situations where we have had such a hard time securing paper. We've had to resort to telling our customers that they'll have to settle for whatever we can get that's close to the weight and finish they're looking for. The alternative is that they'll have to wait (who knows how long) for their job. Shipping an empty box also comes at a premium price these days. So, yes, if I were the seller, I'd get a decent box locally that's up to the task and then pack it securely...  |

I have an XSP-1 I'd consider selling. It's in excellent condition and I have the original box and remote. I'm in AZ 85298. What's your zip code?

If those are " silver", it's a Gen1. If they're " black", it's a Gen2. Some might also mention the trim, but the trim can be changed. There's no changing the control buttons...  |
