Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions VP 150 V1 and V2

As a general rule, Axiom tries to get each iteration of the speaker to a more flat response on and off axis. When we've spoken about this, Ian has emphasized the off axis response as something they've really been working on recently. That said, I don't know of any specific differences between the VP150ti and the VP150v2.

Did the earliest versions of the VP150 have a different tweeter arrangement?

I don't think any production versions of the 150 had a different tweeter arrangement. I remember Ian saying some time ago that they'd tried a bunch in the lab, and this one had the best characteristics.

Hello all,

Thank you for the responses. It is clear that there are some differences but nothing major. I recently purchased a VP150 that is a version 1 or Ti series. I just wanted to know the differences between it and the version two.

I will probably just end up covering it in Rosewood to match my subs and M80s.

I have some M1ti's and the tweeters are definitely different than my M60 V2 and VP100 V2. They don't even look the same. I don't know if those are the tweeters on the V1 VP150 or not, but if I were matching a VP 150 to Axiom fronts, I would go with V2 all around.

The M1's would have had the hybrid tweeter as did the original QS4s, IIRC. The VP100/150 and the rest of the Axiom lineup as it now stands all have had the same tweeter from inception.

Well, the same type of tweeter...

Ya, type of tweeter, as a few have different housing now.

There's been more changes than just the housing, but I don't know the details.
