I got the email. My speakers are on the way (Epic 60/500). No problems in customs. As a matter of fact, they are moving across the country at an alarming rate and will be here Wednesday (two days). I can handle the wait. It's been 6 months since I began seriously researching speakers and barely 5 weeks since placing the order (real wood). It's the other wait that's already killing me. I won't be able to unbox them for another two weeks when we move into our new home. Just thinking about it gives me chills.
I've searched the entire forum and it appears that there is no cure for my dilemma. Expect pictures within three weeks and delirious rants for the time in between.

It's worse than I thought.
All of my speakers are sitting in the next office waiting on me. Obviously, I peeked into one. The wood is simply beautiful and will match the new home perfectly, which gets me major WAF points. Having my name *Custom Made For...* only adds to the effect. Just opening a QS8 package and seeing the Axiom logo cloth bag protecting the finish lets me know that I selected not only great speakers but selected a caring company.
Also, the accessory boxes (spikes, feet, tools and towel) are nicer than my current speakers. Seriously, the freakin' BOX is nicer in appearance than my current speakers.
These are the touches that make a great company into a legendary company. I am now beginning to see why the owners of Axiom speakers give so much respect to the manufacturer.
All of this and I haven't even connected a wire. I can't wait.

Oh, we forgot to tell you. Axioms sound like crap. They just LOOK pretty. Mine aren't even hooked up.

Just as well, considering the room that they are forced to live in.

what, after all that work he put into the porch? Actually, I bet the speakers would sound great on the new porch.
