I miss the Double boxing system that Axiom use to use.. Those Boxes seemed to hold up to the abuse FedEx put them through much better....

This double boxing method worked. I was pretty sure I'd find substantial damage when I saw the condition of the outer box. [img:center]  [/img]

Is that the Boston Cherry? I like the Boston Cherry better than the Mansfield Beach.

Here are some pictures of the Michaura M665, very similar to the M60 - same 6.5" drivers, but the titanium tweeter is the 0.75" from the old M2. Almost identical driver kit to the M60. [img:center]  [/img] Here is a picture of the M665. The hex shape makes for an incredibly solid cabinet structure. Sound quality is beautiful. Finish is the same, but the picture shot in the dark shows up dull. [img:center]  [/img]

BTW, I bought the VP180 from the auction site. It was shipped and repackaged by an Axiom member.
Thanks to him for doing such a good job and shipping so quickly.
