I bought a pair of AX3 models in 1990, and they have a square box to them. The models in the advertisment have the ASW cabintery, and would have been mfg'ered since 1990.

Amie/Alan/Ian - can you post a brochure from the original AX lineup? I have a copy somewhere ( a collectors item?) and thought the payout was great! It was silver, with the models line up in an anechoic chamber - if memory serves!

BTW I still own these speakers, and enjoy them regularly...when I can find the time!! LOL
