Where is info on the site about the Trade up Progrom.

It's been less than 2 months, but I think I'd like to trade the QS4s for QS8s

Rick, I'm beginning to think that perhaps you and I made the wrong decision! ;\)

I don't think so Ken. I'm sitting here listening to them and they're doing just dandy. Actually I'm a bit surprised on how good they do sound.

I have read for years how well the Axiom surrounds do on music and have been a touch skeptical, I believe now.

Sure did. So far I'm really liking what I hear.

Will I have to ship the QS4s first wait and then wait for the QS8s?

I'm all about instant gratification

Hey,

remove Pair QS4 Surrounds $324.00 USD the trade up offer on my order page!

Pay shipping and you have a deal!

Your only saving 40 to 50.. I'd order from Axiom and get the full boat with warranty, return .. feeling good!

Okay I pulled the trigger and did the upgrade.

Sorry no QS4s available here!

That would be about the same as the outlet price, minus a warranty.

I wonder if the boys in the Axiom front office would let me trade my extra M60s on one of those 2011 305hp, 31mpg Ford Mustangs?

Even Steven. \:\)

I would like to know your impressions of the QS4 vs the QS8. I'm in the same situation...I bought my QS4s about 6 months ago and I'm starting to wonder if maybe I should have purchased the QS8s instead.

Both Brent and JC at Axiom agreed that I would see little difference between the two models given the small size of my HT room. I've been using my system for listening to music with surround decoding A LOT more than I first anticipated. I think that music uses the surround speakers more than movies do...and I can't help but think that maybe, just maybe, my system would sound even more fantastic with the QS8s.

<<sigh...>> I'll just keep telling myself that the QS8s won't sound any different in my room than the QS4s...until I get the extra money to buy the QS8s \:\)

Well my Axioms are basically brand new W22s, W150 & QS4s for 6 weeks, the added a w100 the second or third week, then a EP500 the next week, then QS8s the following week to go 7.1.

So a grain of salt..... But I think there is a big difference between the QS8s and QS4s, everything sounds "Fuller", enough that I upgraded last night. Mind you, the current QS4s are just for my rear surround and were great as the side surround too, but thought I'd do it while I could get the most bang for the buck on the trade in (and while I'm in speaker buying mode before I move on to the next thing)

And ... my room is tiny 11'w x 10.5 d..YMMV

I just thought, not counting the diff in cost for the upgrade( would always be paying that) the trade in right now only cost me bout $75, so from what I heard in difference thought why not.

Last thought, I'm new at taking the audio this seriously, so my impressions are still on overload from getting a bunch of new speakers and I'm sure I'm still impressionable.

Good Luck!

I have pics of my front display wall in the gallery: "well all the w's are in...."

Well it's really just speakers with a room added on for someplace to mount them. My viewing (sitting) distance is 7' so I have 3.5' behind the couch for the rears.

But it is alot of speakers in a small space! Then you add 2 centers and the EP500 beastie .... and there is a lot of boston cherry in that space.
