1 of the 2 M60's has a small dent on the inside of the woofer. I haven't hooked them up yet. I'm still waiting on some other components. I was wondering if this is enough to negatively affect sound quality and grounds for an RMA.

Give Axiom a call. They will probably send you a replacement driver.

they seem to be sending out alot of dented woofers recently. One of the downfalls with aluminum drivers i imagine!

I have a similar dent on one of my mids. ( i did it though ) its not a big enough deal that im worried about it. If i were you i would want my speakers to be flawless especially if you bought new instead of b stock but really, it doesnt look THAT bad. of course axiom will send you a replacement if you ask but it looks fine to me.

Some of the folks from axiom went to CES in las vegas so you might have to wait until next week or so before getting joe or someone on the phone.

Ok, I'll give them a call and ask for a replacement, but go ahead and hook up and use the system till it arrives. Thanks guys.

Unless they were Factory Outlet purchases, yes, give Axiom a call for sure.
They will most likely send you out a new driver. They are very easy to replace although you do need a hex key (Allen key) for the job.

What everyone needs is a Minolta Dimage Z1 ;p I'm about to buy either that or a Olympus C-750 camera. I just need to figure out how important almost DVD-quality video is for me and how important insane night shots are. (The Dimage has 640x480 at 30 fps for unlimited time vs the Olympus that takes excellent night shots.)

Yup. Digital cameras usually store all sorts of info in your JPEG file other than the image.

Here's a page that talks about it.

Olympus optics are better than Minolta.
