Ian,
Are the in-wall M5's ready to ship?
Thanks,
Cam

Dang, I take it you have the standard bookshelf inbound? I have not seen tracking, but in my case I ordered 3 on-walls so perhaps they have not shipped.

I also ordered the on-walls. Debbie (Axiom) will send you shipping notification with tracking info as soon as they ship. I've not received my notification email yet either. I only refresh my inbox every 3 minutes or so showing great patience. I'd checked earlier in March and Debbie said they were on track for March shipping, but then Ian updated with the slight delay in the forums, so it looks like they slipped into April. However the notifications are going out, so should be any minute now! Wait for it....refresh....wait for it....refresh  Cheers,

Looks like mine will be in today! Someone at FedEx really had their foot down. Initial estimate put them at Tuesday, but I received my M5HPs today.  I'll put them through their paces this weekend.

Just received my M5 as well. First thing I noticed is they don't fit the FMS stands  . They will probably need a different base to fit. Sound good so far.

Hi flashtro, Ian commented about the FMS stands earlier in this thread (page 4 in my browser): I will answer a bunch of questions here. Hopefully I didn't miss any.
The M5 does fit on the FMS stand but we did modify the top plate to make it more centred on the stand. I would suggest getting new top plates for you stands. The will cost $39 each.
The sensitivity delta is not that great between the QS10 and QS8. We have changed the spec on the QS8 as it was out by 2dB. I am also going to try to get the sensitivity of the QS10 up a dB or two before we start shipping. So it will end up between 2 and 4 dB less efficient. Going after bass generally reduces the sensitivity.
The wall mount bracket for the QS10 is the same Power Bracket as the QS8. Just lift off the QS8 and put on the QS10.
...
Cheers,

These are noticeably wider than the M22 speakers. Very early in testing but the midbass is a noticeable upgrade and these are more power hungry than the m22.
