Can someone please tell me the cost (not including a potentially cancelled and reissued credit card) should I want to upgrade my order to that finish?  The additional cost going from one of the two regular finishes to a rosewood one in matte or semi-gloss is $1,080.00. You can easily verify the cost of all the options by clicking Customize Yours on the LFR-1100 product page at Axiom LFR-1000

to upgrade to that finish should be about 1,080$.... http://www.axiomaudio.com/lfr1100#look under customize yours. I could not find VaSSallo's in there, but it would be one of therosewoods i would assume. P.S. It would appear that me and Jc were typing at the same time...

Joe VaSSallo who has worked for Axiom for many years, allowed Axiom to use his name for that Series of Axiom speakers.

Looks is one thing, but how do they stand up in a true blind A/B test to the M80's? Obviously, everyone will have an opinion. :0

LOL. I played around with adding every option to a pair of LFR's, and in the configuration window, it showed "M100" instead of LFR1100... And here we were told that Axiom was calling them the "not-M100"... SOMEONE didn't get that memo. LOL
Just pokin' fun.

Also, for those of us who already have a VP180/160, would it make sense to produce something like the back half of an LFR centre -- perhaps with additional bass driver(s) -- and use that in combination with the VP? ... or program the DSP to work with a VP160/180 facing forward and a VP150 (the one you replaced with the 160/180) facing backwards

I actually think OPPO could make a decent attempt at a pre-pro. Maybe if enough internet direct companies got together and pooled their resources something like this could come about. For what it's worth, I did ramble on a bit to OPPO in an email about how I'd like to see pre-pros evolve and suggested that they may be in a good place to take a stab at it. They gave me a standard response about forwarding my ideas to the engineers who would take them into consideration for future products and designs. I realize the chances of anything sticking are infinitesimal, but hey, at least I shot it out there, right?

Well, from our perspective, getting emails from our customers really do drive future consideration . . . so maybe . . .
