There's notes in the specs about "anti-standing-wave" cabinets, so it's there. Just kind of buried.
Remember, this forums is intended to be marketing (and generally is!)

Agreed, this forum is the best marketing a company could ask for. While many fear the fanboy syndrome, I think the distrust of the media outlets/"industry press releasers" makes this the most effective medium for the sale of something as subjective as sound.
Just saying, give me some pics, so videos, not a 1x1 square of a finish. They should bombard the viewer with the quality I have seen and read about in the forum. Just my two cents.

Yeah, Charles; there could be a bit more emphasis put on the enclosure design, especially since Ian's research led him to do this very early on. If you haven't seen the AX series from about 20 years ago, you can note that it was a little more obvious at that time. Incidentally, even at that time the Axioms were getting some excellent reviews; for example I read Stereo Review back issues at the library giving highly favorable reviews of the AX5(August 1988)and AX2(April 1990).

Great link, that is cool. It is impressive that Axiom was so far ahead of the curve on this issue. You see most companies are just now getting to this - if at all. I loved the B&W designs that used non-rectangular cabinets. Now i know they actually have a scientific basis.

Wow, what color was that on the AX5? Very bizarre finish!
