Anybody installed any yet? Do you know if they are "direct dealer" only or if they will be available via distribution? I can't seem to get a straight answer. Does anyone know of anything close to the ICS in features, etc.

Direct only. Waiting for my first one to show up.....

I believe it's even directer than direct... I'm pretty sure (like the Intellicontrol) you had to sign a separate franchise or something.

We've gotten a bunch of parts in, but no brains yet.

Speaking for at least one distributor, it is direct only.

Seriously? They are shipping components but not complete systems? I hope the clock isn't ticking on the invoices that go with the first parts.

I for one had to attend a class to become ICS certified. Nothing more than a dog and pony show. I too am waiting for my expensive toys to arrive, no parts to date. I found a dedicated website which the name i found rather ironic considering that the piece is very out-dated. http://www.intellicontrol.com Nice website though. The NilesAudio website could use some web designers input like this. Just my $0.02.

I think it was mostly back boxes and the like...

We received the GXR2 receiver last Thursday . Contact , Display, and a bunch of modules came Friday along with the intellifile software kit. The I remote will be shipping later in the week.

This is such a great idea for product. I just hope it's not like Control 4.
