Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Any Happy VP100 Owners

I was just curious to know if there were any happy VP100 owners?

I own the M50's, VP100, and QS4's. I purchased the VP100 off of recommendations from a few of the guys I spoke with at Axiom.

Being new to Axiom and not knowing much about their speakers, I called Axiom up, asked them some questions, and gave them my HT rooms dimensions. After providing them with all the details of my HT room, they all recommended the VP100 to me.

Now to be up front and honest, I'm not being completely fair cause I've only owned my speakers for about two weeks now, and I have still yet to hear them. Right now I'm currently without a receiver, but that problem will be solved next week.

I guess I'd just like to know if there are any happy VP100 owners, cause all you ever here about is VP150. I can't even recall how many threads and posts I've read of people recommending upgrading to the VP150.

I've learned a thing or two about these two different center channel speakers, and don't believe Alan would lie to me.

He was just one of many that recommended the VP100 to me, due to my HT rooms dimensions. He told me getting the VP150 would be unnessary because I don't need the extra disbursement that the 150 provides. He also shared some information about the two CC's that he asked me not to post on any forums, so I know for a fact that a lot of what people think they know about the two speakers, is not totally correct. If anybody is interested in learning more about that, PM me.

Anyways, as said, I'd just like to know if there are any happy VP100 owners out there?

Sutter, i haven't heard the VP100 but i do own the VP150 and i like it very much. Small or large rooms, i think they would both suffice but based on shear size, i can understand why the VP150 has wider dispersion. I'm sure you will enjoy it immensely.

Keep the information from Alan private as he asked. It would be the courteous thing to do. The rest of us will have to promote incorrect facts until we are otherwise informed of the proper data. Teasing out the Axiom secrets is sometimes half the fun.

I own the VP 100 and have never heard the VP150. I think the 100 is great it sounds virtually like the same as my M22's and QS8's. I have a realatively small room at 12X16 with the end open for another 10ft. I sit about 12ft away and it centers the dialogue perfectly when watching movies.
Check out my pics at www3.telus.net/public/jklasher/. I think you will have no 'what ifs' once you here it. Relax Axiom doesn't sell anything that does not sound as good as any speaker they produce. No upper or lower ends as other companies do.

Jakewash:

My HT room is almost the same size as yours. It's roughly 16'X11', 15'11.5"X10'10.5" to be exact. It's got 3 solid walls, the fourth only has two doorway size opens on each end of the wall. One leading upstairs, the other leading into a small hallway, so it's as fully enclosed as you can get for a non perfect room. I'm fixin to put doors up if I can, and if all else fails, I'll hang some heavy draps up.

Sutter Cane,

I see you are from Kansas, but by using the word "fixin" you sure sound like you are from the deep south. I have served in the USMC for 9 yrs and my wife has been in the USAF for 5 yrs and where ever we go people always pick up on our "fixin" to do everything comments. By the way we are originaly from Louisiana.

*OT warning* Tufelhundin...from Louisiana to Italy. WOW!! quite a change there.

Yes it is...the wine, beer, and food I will miss. I will be back in the States in 2.5 weeks, in Little Rock, Arkansas. Like I said the wine, beer, food will be missed. The weird part is that Louisiana and Italy are shaped like a boot and I'm from N.E. Louisiana and I'm currently in Aviano, Italy....N.E. Italy. WEIRD...

LOL, not the deep south, but I am from Oklahoma. I just happen to live in Kansas.

I knew a kid from Oklahoma and when he moved out to AZ we all thought it was funny that he would use that word "fixin". Although, my grandma lives out in Okie and she doesn't use that type of slang. It's probably because she's old.
