Outriggers for my M80s? #338181 02/12/11 07:14 PM Joined: Nov 2010 Posts: 141 J JBall OP veteran OP JBall veteran J Joined: Nov 2010 Posts: 141 I was wondering if anyone experimented with aftermarket outriggers for their M80s. I like the look of that as I've seen in other speakers. Any recommendations that would fit the M80 speakers? thanks.

Mark's shop is waaayyyy too clean and his standing tools are too new looking. Demand that he make a pair for everyone. Each in a different species, a different stain color (double-dyed, too?!?), and a different sheen. Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

The feet are awesome, like 1920'2/30's Surrealist furniture. Insist that Mark make 'em look like that, but still in hardwood with different...everything. And Charles, I think you should ask Mark for yours to be button upholstered---in paisley. And the print MUST match when it rolls over from one face to the other.

Your definitely the closest. He also has some Byrston Amps No, I didn't. Regarding Bryston Amps-a really good friend of mine owns one, and is good friends with the owner of Bryston (my friends business does lots of work at his house). I could probably get a good deal on one, or test one out in my house for free; I've just never asked. I have wanted to get one for a while, so we'll see .

Man the M80s with a nice set of feet sure look sweet. Too bad Axiom doesn't offer that as an upgrade option.

Yeah, and if Axiom would sell them expensive enough so the M80s would break the $2000 mark, I am sure they would sound even better.

Very well packaged and I didn't injure myself unwrapping them! Now have them mounted on my Axiom M80s and I love them! I have them tilted up a shade so it improves the imaging and I think it opens the bass a bit too. Thanks, Rob (Duncan BC) I’m armed and I’m drinking.
