I would tend to agree. Axiom's drivers are made in China, and I am sure they go through a complete SPC process there before they get to Dwight, Ontario. However, they still do a complete check on the speaker before it leaves the door for the customer.

Being an Online company requires very controled process to ensure the customer is happy. The shipping costs would kill Axiom if most people sent their speakers back due to failiers in the field.
