Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners My Hi Gloss Cherry M3's just arrived.

Very nice pictures. You have to purchase every possible finish just so we can have more pictures.

I dont mind the hijack at all. Great pics, better lighting than mine. My M3's just have a little imperfection on the bottom edge, its not perfect, but not really noticeable.

Now I just gotta crawl in the attic and get some wiring done. Enjoy.

Thanks, a nice lens usable without a flash makes all the difference. I used a Pentax K100D with a 50mm fast prime for these.
I don't know about every possible finish, but more speakers for sure. These are just the start of my system. I think a VP150 is next, then a new TV, then finally M60s.

So gonna use M3 as mains with a VP150....are you gonna use them for rears when you get your M60's??

What you gonna do for a TV?? A lot of us here are TV info junkies too.

BTW, was just in Victoria last year for a 4 day conference and thought it was great. Did a whale cruise and saw a couple pods of orca's. Then ventured downtown to some great watering holes and got to see the requisite west coast homeless needle junkies downtown. Good times!!!

Exactly, my plan is this:
Amp HTR 6060 (check) -> M3s (check) -> VP150 -> Projector/screen -> M60s -> Sub
My room is perfect for a theater setup, about 12' wide by 32' long. Should give me enough room to position the M3s back and to the sides.
I thought about QS8s for surrounds but decided that the M3s would serve me better in both the short and long term. I can always get both eventually.

I recently got rid of my small-ish CRT in anticipation of a projector. Right now I'm looking at a Benq W500 720p projector and a decent screen that I can find in Canada.

Actually, I just moved here this year for school. Fantastic city, sunny and 10C today.

OK, I finally got my M3's connected in the family room with the inwall wiring and ran them thru my old Technics amp, using a cheap JVC combo DVD/VHS player.

First impressions were very laid back but after adjusting the bass and treble on the amp, these are great. My son watched a little Star Wars before bed last night and ran the sound thru them. I have to say for a smaller room the M3 would be fine for HT. The rumble of battle cruisers and hi pitched sound of lasers came thru clear on them. Great speakers.

Sounds like they are excatly what you were hoping for. My son and I watched Episode 3 on Friday night and I forgot just how much LFE there was in that movie. The SVS was shaking the house

Yeah, I think they will be fine and I'll be much happier than if I got a set of PSB alpha's for $100 less. Now I just gotta fininsh hooking up my speakers on the deck.....I went with the Polk Atrium since they fit easier.

Just keep the SVS sub already!!! It will be all you want for the price. Then you can start up an algonquin 0bsession

The M3s look great Al. I can't wait to hear them and the Polks while enjoying Rickard's White .

Jason has subosis (an addiction to comparing subs). Do you sell any tools to fix that ?

Don't fix it yet. I'm... er... he's not done yet.
