Larry, I remember that thread but maybe I was busy with something else--likely the build-up to the Interior Design Show in Toronto. I admit that at times my monitoring of the boards is spotty  and I often let threads run their course without comment. I'll have to go back and read through the "For M60 owners only" thread. Regards,
Alan Lofft,

Hi JohnK,
Yes, Ian was curious to try the well-known D'Appolito array, so he had some M22s built with the MTM (Mary Tyler Moore?) configuration.
Did you and Ian consider the fact that you could market the M22 MTM as a centre channel and for the mains? This would effectivly cut down on production costs for having 2 models of MTM centres. Just curious. I love my M22s, don't get me wrong!

I'm not sure what the difference would be between that and the VP100--other than orientation and lesser magnetic shielding.

instead of having 2 lines, one line making the M22, one line making the VP100, just make the M22, you effectivly cut down on a production line eliminating it entirely.

Except for the shape of the cabinet. The VP100s are awfully large on end, and the M22s are not ideally suited in shape to put on their sides.

Seems like RBH didn't have a problem with it...

RBH doesn't have an anti-standing-wave cabinet design like the Axioms. It's one of the signature pieces of Axiom speakers.

I am sure Axiom could come up with something, why not the VP series cabinet design with an unsealed cabinet?
Sheesh, whats up your arse today?
