Anyone notice that the wait time on the Factory Outlet speakers has been pushed out (at least on the M60's). When I purchased them the wait was 6 weeks, it is now 8 weeks. I've been waiting 4 weeks and was hoping to have them for a Holiday party my wife and I are having on Dec. 17th. I guess that won't be happening now. I'm probably the only person who isn't happy on this forum at the moment. Being as these are my X-mas present, I hope to have them by X-mas, but I'm not holding my breath.

We've discussed this one before... usually (I can think of only one instance where this has NOT happened) Axiom sticks to the ship time as of the order placement. In other words, since when you placed your order it was 6 weeks, you get them in those 6 weeks. If you were to place your order today, you would ge them in 8 weeks. If you're really concerned, give Axiom a buzz!

I think Axiom just cycles through the different speaker models over a period of several weeks to maintain inventory, so the lead time from F.O. for any particular speaker depends on when they are next planning to build them.

That's good to know, thanks for the responses. I've purchased some X-mas cd's to show off the speakers to my friends, so I can go back to hoping I'll have them for our party.

Ken is right on top of it as usual

The dates will fluctuate due to production changes, etc... Normally the date listed at the time of your order, is the date you usually will see them on your door step. I actually got my mansfield's a week early.... ho ho ho merry xmas

The waiting time will be a great time (if you have not gotten them yet) to get the Avia set up disk and a Radio Shack sound meter. IF you are going to show them off, show them off to their best. Both you and your guests will be impressed.

It seems as though everyone has received their speakers early. Has anyone had to wait the entire time for theirs? Just curious.

Buckcrazy, all factory outlet speakers are 100% brand new. They are not used. They sound the same as a new product and carry the same warranty.
