My M8o's are V3 , the V4 has more bracing in them and they also have the plastic cups behind the mids which makes room for more bracing. These are the crossovers I built for my 3 way axioms , the one on the right is for my center channel. When you stop and think about everything that goes into a speaker it is no surprise how expensive they are to produce and ship.

Oh mercy Sockets, you're on fire this summer. If i ever get back up to Whitehorse, i'll need to see those gorgeous speakers. Well done! And here i am plugging away on refinishing ALL the wood trim, baseboards and doors in our house with no where near that level of finesse (spice honey oak be gone!!). That being said, i may look for some tips as i plan to refinish the beaten up walnut veneer on some old Mission 737s. http://seventiesstereo.blogspot.ca/2010/10/mission-737.htmlExample photo (these are not my pair but rather someone's whose are in much better condition):

Chess my door is always open to a fellow Axiom- ite or is it moe. At any rate drop by any time.
Those speakers have been veneered very nicely, I wish I could source veneer of that quality. It is a fine line between a nice smooth surface and the backing paper . I don't know that I can offer to much advice, I pretty much fly by the seat of my pants,but I will try if I can.

M2's ready for clear. Didn't strip the vinyl this time and seems to be holding good, time will tell.

Are you clear coating right over the vinyl?
I really like that idea if it doesn't melt, ha!!

Lookin' good, Socket! When you're done with the Axioms, you might want to look into finishing that table!

She wants her rooster table cloth back.
Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

I thought about doing the table but it belongs to the EX so I use it to cut my veneer with my RAZOR knife. MUHAAAHAHA Bob, the roosters have left the coop , look up a few pics and you can see my new table cloth. I buy whatever Walmart has for under 5 bucks.
