Newf... dont mean to be a bother here.. but you mentioned contacting Axiom was "dissapointing"? Did I not read a few threads back that they told you to contact them and they would fix the problem? Would you care to share what is "dissapointing" about this offer? As with EVERY product ever made.. some break. Forest Gump said it best.. " Shit Happens ". You just happened to be that person with the "lemon" of a part that failed. However, I do also think that a single small connecting point to hold a 25lb item at an undesireable angle could (not should ) have been designed with a larger stronger bolt and holding bracket inside the speaker. Just my 2cents though. As the Axiom rep stated though... Only 2 failures in all that they have sold is an exceptional record for any manufacturer.
