Today was LFR1100 day at the factory; again. Lots of testing and setting up of the production line mini-chamber for making perfect replicas. And of course the signing of the LFR1100s. Pictured are the two first pairs destined for SBrown’s, Dakkon’s living rooms.



Here I am signing S.Brown's LFRs



Here is Andrew signing dakkon's LFRs



Here are the signatures in case you want to forge them on your own speakers.



Here is a real maple pair going down the line. You can see lots of construction details in this shot.

I was hoping you guys would get a picture of that Ian. I thought pictures would be nice, but now it's killing me to wait for this pleasure.
Thanks Axiom!

I love those pictures, Ian!

Part of what makes my relationship with Axiom satisfying is the same kind of thing that is energizing about a live music performance; the people involved are having a good time and have integrity.

Shawn, I'm really envious.

i think what's being done here by Ian and Andrew is unheard of;
who has ever heard things like what's going on here?

SBrown and Dakkon, you're getting something very exciting that's a "once in a lifetime" thing.

Well said, Tom. It really does bring something extra to see Ian and everyone else at Axiom so excited about the new speakers.

The wait is almost over Shawn and Alex!

Ian, did you happen to put a layer of lacquer to seal and protect the signatures?

I still need to assemble my second set of speaker cables, i think that will be on the "to do list" for tomorrow.

Boy do I feel left out! Just had to sink 20k into a kitchen renovation due to a mold remediation problem, no LFRs for me! At least now we have granite countertops!

Speaker cables and interconnects I have covered, but as far as amps, no. I've ordered an Axiom ADA1500-4 to power the LFR1100s, but I won't be getting that until the end of July. The ADA1000-4 I'm getting to power my surrounds should be shipping a couple weeks before then, so I can at least try the LFRs out at that point.
