Just to let you newer fellas know, back a few years ago Axiom didn't offer any upgraded finishes so it was either wrapped vinyl or wrapped vinyl.

The gist of my comment is that every time I read of you newer fellas and your purchases of Axiom's highly glossed finishes and wood veneered speakers it makes me very jealous and want to visit your house and steal all of your fine finished speakers and take 'em home with me.

Yea ... probably a highly glossed finished one at that, right?

Yeah Jake another fellow Albertan, I found Axiom when I was on a quest for more bass LOL. I just added eight Aura Pros to my HT seating and I am thinging I need more bass you know to get the thump in your chest as well as the rumble in your pants. But I have found a new love and the bass can wait I think LOL. Rick my Infinities have a nice finish LOL they will be just sitting around for a while if I get these ones LOL you might like them. They are not an M80 but they are pretty.

Very nice clean setup you have Rick I don't think you have to worry a little wood veneer wouldn't make your room much better.

FYI that thump in your chest generally comes more from your mains(~60hz-90hz) than from your sub so M80s and 500W/channel amp and you should be good \:\)

My vinyl black m80's look great. However, if money were no object I'd get some real wood veneer.
