I have just noticed quite an influx of new buyers in the forum! It seems like every couple of hours a new poster says "I have finally purchased my Axioms!" I do not know if it is just the Holiday season or not, but Axiom seems to be doing quite well the last few weeks.
I hope all the new buyers have been enjoying their new Axioms and us veterans are showing off our excellent setups to new buyers when they come over for the Holidays!
It seems quite funny, but it sure makes me feel good to see a company that took care of me through the buying process doing well. Hope the strong sales are a welcome holiday present to Axiom.
Similarly, I just got my brother turned on to Axioms. He is expecting at least a VP100 for Christmas and may possibly be getting more. I gave him an Axiom gift certificate for Christmas.
Axiom brings Christmas cheer to my family!
Conversely, I still do not know how my Axioms are doing since they are in San Luis Obispo, CA near where the Earthquake occured Yesterday and I am in Irvine, CA with my family.
I have no idea whether my HT survived the quake. I hope hope hope everything is OK.

I do have renters insurance, but it does not cover earthquke. It covers fire and theft and stuff like that. Earthquake coverage would have cost a lot more a month. In hindsight it would have been a good idea, but I did not know there was even a fault in the area.

I knew of the San Andreas Fault and the Newport Inglewood fault in Newport Beach. But I did not know about there being one in San Simeon. I am sure no one but a Scientist would know exactly how many faults there are in the state.

Yeah, earthquake insurance is way, way too expensive. We've only got $5000 worth. They wouldn't want to insure you against something that will probably happen. No money that way!

I am covered for something like $26000. I do not have any where near that much worth in stuff, it is only a one bedroom apartment. But it will cover all of my theater, DVDs, and Bed stuff. Maybe, if you count everything I actually have in my apartment it will add up to almost that much. But it also covers a hotel room if I can not live at home because of the incident.

Good thought. I think we just added up all our stuff and added $5000. I'm not really sure any more.

If you live in California, chances are you are close to a fault of some kind.

Everything is fine. I almost lost the VP150 off the TV, but it did not make it all the way off, it almost made it though, right to the edge.
Axioms SS24 stands witheld an earthquake with M22's on top of them if that helps anyone on the fence about their quality.
