I was going to buy from the main store, not the outlet (are outlet units "lightly used" or just slightly blemished?). The main limitation is the size of the speakers; I want something on the smaller side, hence no M22.
Factory outlet speakers range from slightly “blemished to perfect condition. I have 10 factory outlet speakers an all arrived in perfect condition. Some people have found minor cosmetic issues but it is quite common to find none. I have said many times that I believe if Axiom does not have any B-stock available in the timeframe listed on the factory outlet order page they will ship A-stock to meet or even beat the deadline. No one from Axiom has ever refuted this.
To me the only drawback to ordering factory outlet is a longer wait. However, each time I ordered the listed wait time was 4 weeks but my speakers shipped in 2.
