I'll say it again. The 80s are one of the best values in audio. There are some things that you simply marvel at. The 80s are one (two ) of those things.

I guess the question is, how much money do you have to spend, and what can you get away with from your wife as far as aesthetics are concerned? Run the Home Theater Wizard if you haven't. That's where I started and it was a huge help. It's the main reason I ended up digging into these forums which eventually lead to me making my purchase.

I ordered 6 speakers from the factory outlet and they were all in perfect condition except my subwoofer, which had a small scratch on the back under teh amp plate where no one will ever see it.
I vote for m60's from the FO

The F.O is a great deal and most of us on here have speakers from there. They have only minor or no defects that the owners have found and still have that great Axiom sound.

The only bad thing about the factory outlet in my opinion is the additional wait. 4 of my 5 speakers were perfect, one had a small scratch only I would notice.

I ordered a complete set from the factory outlet and didn’t find anything wrong with them. Axiom must have insanely strict quality controls to say they were in any way defective. Also, even though my order was suppose to take 5 weeks to ship they actually shipped in in less than 3 weeks so you may not have to wait the full length of time stated.

There are some things that you simply marvel at. The 80s are one (two \:\) ) of those things. Indeed. Marvelous things often come in pairs. Good shoes, for example.
