...it was moved by the drinking squirrel and seconded by the chain-smoking infant that use of the T-Bracket for this installation is not recommended. Discussion?

I think the BEST approach would be to use the Axiom full-metal ceiling bracket, which I believe will allow you almost infinite adjustment between the angle of the ceiling (or the sloped walls, in this case) and the speaker. +1. I can almost guarantee that FMB's will be Axiom's suggestion. The QS8's are pretty heavy speakers. They need to be securely fastened to the wall, whatever that wall may be. I wouldn't trust the built-in T-brackets on an angle. Just too much to chance. Really, just email Axiom. They will know. The great Alan himself will probably respond within a day or so.  There's a good thread about marital-bliss and home theater in the Water Cooler area... http://www.axiomaudio.com/boards/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=252047#Post252047

it is designed for the force to be fully vertical. Use the force, Argon. Use The Force!

It is probably obvious by the number and tenor of my posts that I am really sweating this out as I am getting close to pulling the trigger......I e-mailed Axiom last night and Jean-Claude answered. You can no longer take the cost of samples off your purchase of speakers but you can obtain a full credit to your credit card if you return the samples. So....the samples that I am considering asking for in Custom Vinyl are "Warm Cherry", "Sorrel Pear", "Cinnamon Beech" and maybe "Classic Oak". Probably do a spread on Grill cloth of Black, Charcoal, Burnt Sienna, and maybe Warm Tan. If anyone can post their pics of those finishes or direct me to already posted pics, it may (not) alleviate my sweatiness....

Have you searched the gallery? I find those pics are often better than the Axiom website pics.

I have but I am not always sure what finish I am seeing. That is what I was getting at with the line about directing me to the pics. To steal from John Torturo in "Mr. Deeds" - "Perhaps you underestimate my sweatiness"....so to speak
