I think Bob/335 may have had buyers remorse the moment he ordered.


Half of communication is listening. You can't listen with your mouth.

LMAO well i did expect you guys to cratz on me, but i did take your advice..to a point. If you feel my takeing out the Onkyo and replacing it with a QSC amp was a problem so be it. If you do not believe the tweeter connections fell of after they got here. Well so be it agian. Don't know what to tell you, but they they were never on there right, period.

I have nothing bad to say about the speakers, they are very good an defined. The fact that they do not give the same bass as the old Polks... that is just my feeling. Be it right or wrong.

The fact that one of the drivers also has a problem, pretty much thru me over the edge. For new speakers i don't expect this. So at this point, i decided to send them back.
I don't know if this is because they were "B" stock or not. But, when i have to pull all the tweeters and reclamp them, then find a driver that's not too good. Sorry, for me. Just not that great.

If there was not a driver problem, i would have kept them. But that was kind of the last straw, at least for me. They seem to be great speakers. But for whatever reason, in my case did not work out. I have no axe to grind, or have a problem with these speakers, in fact i think they are really good speakers. But the amount of problems i've had...they just have to go back. Nothing more.

Just a PS to this...If Axiom was willing to send me a new SET of speakers, i'd be more then happy to try them out, and if no problems keep them. But when you get a set of speakers, that both have problems with the tweeter connections,on BOTH speakers and now a driver problem. There is no way i could keep them, and either would any of you if you had these problems.

Have you actually called and talked to Axiom, most likely they would comply with your wishes.

I'm not sure they would have sent a new set of speakers. If he says the problem is with one driver,most likely they would have sent just the one driver. But again, if it would have been me, I would have taken the driver, take 5 min to replace it like I've done in the past and be done with it. Bob's choice of returning the speakers is fine, I'm just wondering how many speakers he's gonna try and how many problems he's gonna run into before he finds what he wants. Please Bob, keep us posted as this is pretty entertaining.

Thanks Rick. Too bad there's too many posts! and this guy reached over 500! From what I've read, it seems that he was even better than BobT! what's going on with all the BOBs anyway? Makes me regret to not have been that active on the forum at that time cry

Yeah...i find nothing entertaining about this at all. Yes Axiom will send me new drivers, but the fact i had to repair brand new speakers in the first place, dose NOT float my boat. I have never had this problem with other speakers...so are you guys, just willing to fix NEW speakers all the time??? that should work out of the box. Yeah i can see replaceing drivers on old speakers, and other problems. But this dose not work for me.
When all the tweeters in 2 speakers...don't have the right connections, and fall off....you think thats enetertaining??
On brand new speakers???? I don't! and don't trust the speakers, when there ends up to be a bad driver in one of them.
I don't seem to find this funny at all. I will just go back to a High dollor set of Martin Logans or Jamo's, which don't seem to have this problem.
Your stupid comments about how many speakers i will try is useless, i tried these, because of the price point. Period.

I didn't have a problem with these speakers...but you people seem to think this is all a joke. Not to me, i gave them a try..did not work. When you get new speakers, that have these kinds of problems....not good!

I've called Axiom in the past when I had problems with my EP800s instead of venting on a BB. First, we tried new amps, and they did not work. Then, they more than happily sent me brand new speakers, and pre-paid shipping invoices to send the old ones back.

You have a 5 year unlimited warranty that you could use if you choose to. I don't think it's a joke and I know how frustrating it can be. I think just many people here see that you really have not taken too much advice and are giving up. That's fine, it's your choice to do that, but you really could have the speakers you have now fixed/repalced for free rather than paying return shipping.
