I have purchased both "normal" and Factory Outlet speakers. In my case the Factory Outlet speakers (QS8s) had one small "ding" in each speaker, roughly what you could make by pressing your thumbnail into the edge.
Were I buying again, I would buy the mains "full price" because they are kind of "on display" and even the tiniest ding can be noticeable in the right light, but I would buy everything else FO because nobody will ever know, including yourself.
The other nice thing is that you would have M80s to listen to while waiting for everything else to arrive
EDIT -- it wouldn't hurt to check with Axiom re: whether mixing regular stock and FO stock in this way would affect the 5% discount. I don't think it would but check, OK ?
