last week i ordered a open box, Klipsch XW-300d Subwoofer from a well known online retailer. it is scheduled to be delivered monday. ok this is where it starts getting weird. this sub weighs 24 lbs. without the box. i looked up the tracking number and the weight is listed as 54 lbs. okay uh? that means the box weighs 30 lbs., 6 lbs. more than the sub. just for ha ha's i called customer service and verified the tracking info was correct. including the weight. they said it was correct, so i left it at that. but its still bugging me. so i did a little investigating of my own. this is what i found out.. the sub i had ordered is 24 lbs. and has a 8 in. woofer and a 270 watt rms amp. but,, the next size up, the xw-500d is 48 lbs. has a 10 in. woofer and has a 500 watt rms amp. and it also considerably more money. gee i wonder,, hmmmm. all i can think of is sargent shultz from hogans heroes. I SEE NOTHING-- I HEAR NOTHING. lets see what monday brings, it should be interesting, ya think??

Yeah, let us know ok? If they didn't accidently send you the 10"/500 watt model, I'd really like to know what they packed it in. It takes a whole bunch of styrofoam to make even one pound. Should be interesting.

You'll know if the box is too big to fit in thru the front door.

Ok, thanks for filling us in, but what did they pack it in? Gel packs?
