I just posted in HT forum and figured I would put here as well. I received all my speakers, painted and hung. After calibration they sound awesome, even with my cheap sub. Just ordered a Rythmic F15 sub and will hook up this weekend. Have watched RIO 3D, Dave Mathews and Rush so far.
I will post pics soon. And a huge plus, the WAF is high, speakers look and sound great.


Thanks

after reading thousands of posts in different forums, i've come to the conclusion that the term "WAF" is misleading.

people should instead write "BAF" (Boss Approval Factor).

So true

Yeah, but some of us are NAFRs...

A former co-worker was so bossy that we got her a coffee cup that said "When I want your opinion, I'll give it to you"

To which she responded, "That's right, and don't you forget it"

I hope you continue to enjoy your new system.

I am loving it. Just received my rythmic F15 sub two days ago. Have it blended pretty good, but will continue to tweak. It is an amazing sub and with eyes closed it cannot be located. Last night I pulled out a couple of old CD's, Larry Carlton and also A tribute to Jeff (Picarro)by Sheffield Lab, listening in stereo at about -10. Night before was Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds at Radio City BD. Axiom was right, dust off the old CD's. I have a bunch to pull out that I haven't listend to in years.

Update after having hooked up for a little over a week.
I remember reading that the Axioms will bring out the recording level. I believe that to be right. Good recordings sound great and bad ones sound bad. On some of my CD's, it seems that the drums aren't very distinct (mid-bass?), and on others you can hear every instrument in detail. I think the speakers do a great job with Jazz and acoustical music. The Rythmic F15 sub is amazing.
I am sure much of this is due to my speakers being on-wall. I also think some this has to do with my receiver. It is a HK 240 and doesn't have any calibration other than EZ set and the manual setting for xover, delay and level.
I plan to probably buy a Onkyo 709 or 809 thinking the Audisey will provide a good improvement.
Thoughts?

You have it exactly right Craig. I don't think I own a single Jazz disk that is poorly recorded. I wish the entire industry set their standards that high.

Craig, my personal experience with Audyssey MultEQ and that of most users who've used correct procedures in applying it has been highly satisfactory. The 709 or 809 would be fine additions, although it can't be said with certainty whether the particular area that you mention would be improved.
