Just wanted to post, after "thinking" about my purchase for almost a year, I finally received my shipment today from Axiom. I got a pair of M60's, VP150 and a pair of QS8's. The warm cherrywood with black grills is FANTASTIC. My wife loved the finish, which made the $270 upgrade worthwhile for the both of us. I have not yet hooked up the QS's as I am still waiting for some 12ga in-wall speaker wire. For anyone that is cheap like me, I can not recommend enough they DIY recipe for StarQuad Cat5 cables. See this link for info.

If more people are interested I can post some pics of the "jig" I made for making these exceptional speaker wires. Happy listening and btw, the speakers sound wonderful!

Thanks for sharing that with us, very good system you put together. Please do post some pictures.

Yes PLEASE post some pictures. I'd love to see what they look like with that finish!

Yes, please post some images.

Wished that the Warm Cherrywood was a "regular" finish offering...

But that will be probably what I will order once the funding arrives.

Love to see pictures of "live" units before that though...

he looks as excited as Dad likely was!

Your kid is almost 37.5" tall

Nice audio setup and a cool kid to boot!

You probably already know this but I have a suggestion:
pull the M60s forward when it's time to listen for better imaging and soundstage. You can always push them back when you're not using them.

its soo funny how alot of people put their dogs or kids in the picture with their stereos.

Dont see the wife smiling in there to often though.. lol

nice setup BTW. you got alot of dvd's!

You have a point there.

How about a challenge: The first person to post a pic of his smiling SO next to his speakers gets a prize. More points awarded for comical or sexually suggestive (with the speakers) poses...

This could get very interesting.

Do they have to be Axioms?

Just an excellent little setup and an excellent little guy.
Well done on many counts.

no, as long as it's sexy + speakers.

I asked her...no dice. She doesn't think 35 wks pregnant would count as sexually suggestive.

Definitely not suggestive. As a matter of fact, it's sexually evidential.
