Hi asher770,

I had your serial numbers checked at the factory and your M80ti's do not have the upgraded crossover.

I also forgot to mention that during that period of upgrades to the M80ti, over the summer/fall of 2003, there was a change to the tweeter design of the M80s. The combination of the upgraded crossover and improved tweeter produced the smoother and more linear midrange performance that become part of the M80 v2.

Regards,

Alan

I just called Axiom to check to see if the M80s I have was the older crossover or not. JC answered and once he heard they were an 03 model he right away told me it was the older crossover without checking the serial #. No sooner than that he pretty much said "OK and hung up on me.

Not a very talkative fellow.

JC is the fellow that emailed me back the following information after I inquired about a damaged tweeter on one of my four year old 80s...

"Your tweeter has suffered physical abuse. Axiom would never ship a speaker with a tweeter having physical damage. The ones with cosmetic flaws which are still physically perfect are sent to the Factory Outlet."
