Hope this hasn't been covered to death but I have a set of M22 v2's (3 weeks old) and can't find any info on them on the Axion web site - it still refers to the m22ti with no mention of the v2 - from the web site or search done here.
I read a review of the new M80v2 (not referred to on the web site either) which mentioned an improved crossover and other minor changes and was wondering if the M22'v2' is just another meaningless 'new and improved' label without any meaningful changes or are there differences between the M22v2 and M22ti significant enough to mention?
Thanks
Larry

If it is really a concern, call Axiom and I'm sure that they will answer all of your questions.

That's interesting. Did they make a v2 version of the M60ti? What changes did they make and how did you come to know of them?

Found this review which mentions the M80v2 and then noticed the same label on my M22's. haven't called Axiom yet, thought you all might know something.

It seems that Axiom has changed all the speakers to the V2, the change was in the crossover as well as the binding posts.

I know for the M80s the crossover was changed around three years ago. I don't believe the binding post have been changed, the are the same as they were three years ago.

Try calling it rebranding. It's a little less insulting to our hosts. Just because the changes were made a few years ago doesn't make them non-changes.
