We're looking for the best "Axioms in my games room" picture you've got! Send your entry picture to Amie and win an Axiom Jacket and $100 Axiom Dollars!

Requirements: the picture must showcase Axiom speakers in a games-room setting. Please send them in .gif, .jpg, or .psd format.

Entries: Limited to three rooms per person.

In exchange for the prize, you allow us to use your photo for promotional purposes. We won't give out your address, though, we promise!

Contest runs from October 6th- November 6th, so you've still got time to order speakers for the contest if you need them!

Good luck!

While there may be time to order speakers, there's certainly no time to order a game-room for my townhome.

Well, we havent got a game room, However I could squeeze out a few pictures of our new dedicated theater. I guess i could throw some cards out on a table. Its more of a "Media room" than a theater since its also geared towards music. Probbly wont have our screen by the end of the contest though

I've got an airhockey table, electronic dart board, pachinko, full size arcade, and pinball right OUTSIDE my theater.... But, alas, it isn't IN the same room.

I think the chances of winning this contest for those who enter is probbably about 20-1

If there are even 20 people who have game rooms with axioms in them. Seems to me that most people who are on these boards are more serious about theater/music than background music type installation that would probbably be found in a game room.

What is WRONG with you guys (Nick, Randy, Chess) - you have beautiful homes. Just STAGE it. You don't have to even hook them up. Move your Axioms to your game rooms, snap some nice pictures and voila.

I can't keep giving you this advice for free.

I'll set up one of my chess boards on top of an M22. That should do it.

Ah, now you get it. Welcome to the practice, Dr. Tom.

We can discuss the terms of our partnership in about three weeks over a beer, am I right?

So start charging then.


I already have an Axiom jacket, which i wear almost weekly in the fall and i have no immediate plans for HT expansion to require $100 Axiom dollars (worth 1.32 yen as i understand it). I think i'll let this one pass although my Boston Cherry finish would look quite nice sitting around the dark walnut pool table off the cellar.

Busy trying to fill that bugger as we speak. Another $600 and 28 more bottles went in yesterday.

I'll get right on it. I may not have the nicest game room, but I may very well have the most amount of axiom speakers in the smallest amount of space!

MZero x2
VPZero x1
QS2 x2
M2i x2

All cramed into a tiny little 10x10(?) room.

I'll try to get some pics tonight.

Now you tell me. It took me a long time to hang those chains "just right" from the eye hooks I screwed into the reinforced rafters in my ceiling.

What about the swing? Positioning of that is pretty crucial, too.

How about a "most creative Axiom installation" contest.

I think I'd win with my Axiom system packed into a dorm room.
