Thank you all for the help.

I know I am going to give the M80's a try. Thinking if waiting for the factory outlet deal is worth it both for cost and for quality.

Now...to decide if I am going to go for the whole thing at the same time or add bit by bit. Would a subwoofer or center channel be more important.

I say subwoofer. Adds a whole new dimension to movies.

the Factory Outlet in my opinion is worth it for the extra 10% plus the quality you'll be hard pressed to find any cosmetic problems.

The Center can be simulated by the left/right speakers, so I'd say subwoofer, woof woof.

Hey Jimmy,

Like you, I was wondering the same thing. I decided to go for the M80's and the sub. Thought I'd add the QS8's next and the center channel for last.
Many here have told me that they couldn't even find the blems in the FINISH of the Factory Outlet. The inner contents is said to be as perfect and brand new as "A" stock. The blems are strickly in the finish. I had placed my order from the Factory Outlet.

Someone mentioned on Tuesday that there was a further discount when buying 5 or more pieces. I found it hard to believe that it would apply to the Factory Outlet already discounted prices. I called Axiom. Noreen explained that their shipping carrier extended a shipping discount for 5 or more items. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT THEY PASS THAT SAVINGS ON TO THE CUSTOMER!!!!!

Me, being the sucker I am for a good deal, slightly modified my order. (Slightly?) I added the QS8's and the VP-150 center channel. Basically I am getting an entire Epic 80-350 for $2596. So sit down and do the math.

Of course it's great that you have a 30 day in home trial period. Although I did do some speaker auditioning and have a good idea where these speakers stand in the spectrum, I feel a bit stupid for buying an entire system without first hearing it. I can be a fanatic when it comes to what I call a fairly major purchase. (Actually I'm a fanatic with any purchase. No one ever wants to come to any stote with me!)

So there you have it! There is a guy named Adrian on this site in the same position as both of us. He seems just as bad if not worse than me. I believe he intends to actually get to Axiom in person to audition the speakers. He has already auditioned many more speakers than I did. It will be great and interesting to finally hear his review of Axiom in comparison to all the others. (Hey Adrian, let's get with the program! )

Expected delivery date Feb. 2 total of 3 weeks to save some money. (At least I can try to explain to my wife what a great deal I got)

Ladies and Gentlemen, Murph has left the building.


With people 'exiting' left and right these days at work, I'm thinking that was a subliminal error.
