Hey, i created a thread about this very subject matter last year. Only the bosses Lovely Wife could get away with stealing my thunder! Ian you even posted on it; since your not as pretty as your wife, I'm taking my pain out on you! i demand to get a test sample sent to VA for my pain and suffering! I expect to get my tracking information via email as soon as "it's" ready and you send it out!

Just wondering if the new speakers are going to be available shortly after they are announced in march or if they will still be a while. I'm just a few clicks away from ordering the Epic 80 - 500 - 180 and just wondering if I should even bother waiting for these since I plan to finish my HT in March.

Yeah, I sure hope the release isn't too long afterward. I have someone interested in my M80s. A friend, so I'd give him a really good deal. I was originally going to pass them on to my dad, but I don't think he cares as much about home theater these days, and I think he may be better served by M22s, anyway.
Can't wait to have a nice audio upgrade.

Posted by JC over on Blu-ray.com: Hi Tanooki,
The new flagship model is not part of a Home Theatre package; it is for stereo - audiophile crowd. It has no matching center and surround speakers yet and none plan for the moment. One pair of the new flagship tower speaker model will be substantially more expensive than the current M80v3. I guess I can still save for M80s in my main home theater, then see about the new speakers for a 2.1 system. Hmmm.

Hmm, assuming this new speaker model has been designed in conjunction with Bryston, it would probably be safe to say that the selling price is going to be "just a little bit more" than a pair of M80s.

As it was stated earlier the Bryston speaker is a separate project than the new Axiom speaker. Based on the latest version (renderings?) of the Bryston speaker and what has been explained about the Axiom speaker, they seem to be quite distinct from one another.

As they said ,it's ten years or more in the making, and the Bryston is recent.

The two are separate projects and not related in any way, except for some of the concepts that underpin the designs.

Andrew. I'm not digging for information or anything....but let's say I was interested in purchasing a pair of Mirage OMD-28's, hypothetically speaking of course...would there be any other similar speakers that I should also have a look at ?

Half of communication is listening. You can't listen with your mouth.

I guess if I had to boil it down to the two most prominent and broad categories that we were collaborating on it would be the utilization of DSPs and the utilization of omni-directional design. These two main foundations, plus a multitude of other ideas and experiences, could now be used to carve out some totally new territory.
