Does Axiom sell a speaker plug that will plug into an on wall speaker? I'm putting my M80 on walls on an articulating flat panel TV mount. When watching a movie they will swing into the living room, when listening to music they will swing into the kitchen. I can squeeze a banana plug into the terminal but I'm not sure if thats the best route.


Lots of speakers from many
manufactures...mostly Axiom

You could connect the bracket that mounts on the wall to the M80. Then wire to the bracket. The bracket does not have to be on the wall.

BTW, that's some crazy-ass shit. If I was Dawn, I'd thigh-lock your head and cart-wheel you out on your heiny.

yeah, I was thinking about that Mojo...not the thigh lock, but the wire to bracket! lol I just wasn't sure how well the wires would hold inside the bracket that is designed for a fixed mount. Trial and error, I will figure it out and report back in.

The bracket's terminals don't care if the bracket is mounted to the wall or not.

Yes but I’d strain relieve the wires because they are not designed to hold when moving the wire around often. First thought is to a zip tie to the mounting holes in bracket in a loop or a ‘U’ pattern.

My QS10s are equipped for the bracket and also have speaker terminals. Rebulx, you should upgrade your M80OW.

The zip tie will change the permittivity of the wire insulation. Rebulx may complain of dull highs.

Interesting ... I thought mine were done that way because I made a request to get both. I was not sure if I was going to hang them on the wall or from the ceiling. Did you do the same or is that now standard.

I didn't request it. I don't know if it is standard. I know Axiom will build any on-wall with terminals upon request.

The zip tie will change the permittivity. No question about that. The change will be so small as to be negligible. Rebulx may possibly be the only human who could hear the difference particularly when he is in a thigh lock.

Then we also have to remember when the wires are in a loop or a U pattern, the capacitance will surely change.

Best for Rebulx to stick with headphones.

Yes, and moving the wire a fraction of an inch from where it lays will also change it. Although true in the may not be measurable sense ... it's just FUD.

Let's not spread unwarented FUD ... smile

Yes, and we all know what he ate for dinner makes a difference too. More protein dampens the highs. Carbs boost bass.

Carbs boost the mid section bass, beans help keep the "low end" robust. Makes the bass visceral, you can feel it thru your pants on the seat of the couch.....the bass that is. smile

Thanks for all the advice guys... I think I got it.

Axiom does not make a single plug for the on wall brackets,
Don't use zip ties.
Eat more carbs.
Eat more beans.


Yup, I got it. Thanks! lol

I'll post some pics in a few days when the aftermarket brackets are installed. Hopefully they don't come crashing down.
