Nice pictures, Chess. However, Axiom specifically recommends that they not be placed on a bookshelf, so I don't think I want to go down that path. Besides, I have owned various dipoles, bipoles and tripoles (M&Ks) and always go back to preferring direct radiators for my surrounds. I find that in a 7 channel setup, the envelopment aspect of the various non-monopolar speakers is less important.
