Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Axiom vs. av123's Rockets

Mark,
I probably posted a couple of times in other threads that my delivery date is set for Feb 1. So yes I am kidding. Noreen was very pleasant on the phone (when I upped my order to include the QS8's and VP150) and informed me that I would get an email when shipped.

I haven't really overthought the decision on Axiom. For some strange reason I am pretty confident in that decision. Actually pretty strange for me who is soooooo picky about things and never heard these speakers. People who know me well would believe that I spent that much money on speakers (yes this is a lot even though it's probably at the low end of a quality system) however, those same people would NEVER believe that I spent that much money without hearing them. and without going back and hearing them again. and again. and again before buying them.

One concern is do I really need a center channel. (which is a recent development) but more so am I choosing the right sub. But both of these are on other threads.

To get back on topic, what happened to the OP asking about the Rockets?

We rambled on too much and scared him off?

Or we are just a bunch of fish who took the bait

Hook, line of speaker.

Very clever!

The price on the Rockets is from a current deal they had running on the forum. They have or had (I'm not sure if the sale is over or not) 15 sets of these Rockets for $1999 plus shipping.

Like I said, in their store, pricing it is not listed as such and I could not locate any specials at all on the 850's. You have to act fast with av123 as they always seem to have limited quantities.

Not at all. I was out of town over the weekend. this is a nice thread and I appreciate everyone that has added their opinions.

Thats how I ended up with the EP350. Works for me too.

I'm not sure what this means but to let all of you know that I am indeed interested in Axiom's speakers. I am not trying to cause any kind of feud between these two companies or the owners of their products.
