Hey everyone, I am in the middle of watching "The Naked Mile" on DVD and there are a set of Axiom Audio Epic 80 and the QS8 surrounds in the basement of Stiffler's girlfriends house.

WoW! I haven't watched that movie yet, but that is pretty cool, any chance of getting a screenshot?

I can't believe that, I wonder if Amie and Ian are aware their speakers have made the big screen? I'll send her a PM.

To cool, thanks for sharing....

Oh yeah, the M80s were really nervous when the director called, but with some coaching we got them movie-ready. See how they don't steal the scene but they're there, enhancing it? Masterful. {giggles} Thanks for pointing this out Pifemaster!

Thanks, Pifemaster, for spotting the Axioms! Of course, it's nice to know that Stiffler's girlfriend has such discriminating taste in accurate sound reproduction.

I wonder if the production company used one of Axiom's customer's homes as a location shoot?

Bob must be a true audiophile. Anyone who would even notice the speakers has to be.

OK - here is a better picture. Notice the QS8 surrounds on the wall by the deer head.

Below is a picture I just took of my home theater. You can see why it was so easy to spot the Axioms in the movie. The screen was flanked by the the exact same speakers.

I am driving the Axioms with a Denon 4806CI and the image is projected on the 96" Carada screen using a Panasonic PT-AX100U.

Indeed, you would need a monster receiver to drive that 3ohm load...which in this case, he does!

wow, they sure have those M80's setup for some nearfield listening or something in that movie. Perhaps we can call and help the guy out with speaker placement.
