Finally got my speakers after 4 weeks of waiting from F/O order, a week earlier than expected. Here are some pictures      As you can see, the VP150 center speaker box is damaged, hopefully the speaker is not. I'll take some more pictures after I unpacked them and hooked them to my AVR.

Your not waiting until XMas to open those are you? I would at least inspect the 150.

I unpacked the 150 and see no scratches or anything on the outside and the tweeter and woofer looks fine.
Although these speakers were from FO, they all look brand new. No scratches or anything. I'll have to wait until my AVR arrived to test out these speakers.

Congrats Psionic. That is a killer setup you got there!
I am listening to my Axioms as I type this to you:). Looking forward to your impressions or any further questions you might have.
I’m armed and I’m drinking. You don’t want to listen to advice from me, amigo.

Most of my theater speakers were FO, and they were all excellent.
Congrats on your new speakers, you will really love them!

Thanks all. I'm still waiting for my AVR. The wait is unbearable.
I just bought a tilt tv wallmount. The TV is mounted above the fireplace at about 6.5ft high and the center speaker will be roughly 2 or 3 ft above ear level. Do you guys think I will need to tilt the center speaker downward?

Yes, tilt down slightly, a block of wood or a rubber door stop under the back of the speaker works well.
