PSB uses aluminum fronts and backs on some of their speakers. I believe I've seen some others use complete aluminum cabinets as well, probably more of a "lifestyle" setup like a condo HT or similar.

I have never understood using glass enclosures. Glass sounds like a bad idea all around. They might look nice in a "lifestyle" setup though.

Some people are only concerned about the looks and not the sound, I guess.

I wish axiom would make a wall mountable M80 style speaker.
It would have about twice the depth of the on-wall series.
Edit: I know they have the in-cabinet, but not everyone wants to put them, nor can put them in the wall.

OK, just finished reading all 317,672 posts in this thread and confirmed nobody has mentioned outriggers for the tower speakers yet. So, without further ado, I wish Axiom would make optional outrigger brackets with bolts to go into M60 or M80 foot/spike holes and tapped holes on the end that accept the feet/spikes shipped with the speaker. I was going to do something with 1x2s but have been shamed by the beautiful outriggers others have built. I want to be able to buy something just as nice without doing any actual work myself

I'm definitely down for some outriggers, and I still like the idea of making them a little more involved than simply providing extra stability. As in, I'd like a rotating platform for the speaker to sit on that you can lock at whatever angle you want. It would be a convenient and accurate way to play with toe-in.

Sort of like a Roomba HD with an M80 on top ?

I'm trying to picture that. It reminds me of some of those Wallice & Grommit shorts.
