I asked for my order of active LFR/1000-8/dual 500s be delayed for a week until I get back from a business trip. I am sure the factory is bursting at the seams with orders from Black Friday season. Regardless, Ian checked if I was back today so he can ship the order. That's excellent, personalized service!

Have to agree ...

I had a renovation on track to start back in 2016. About when Axiom had a sale I could not turn down but need them to hold the items for a year. No problem ...

Unfortunately , the builder's finial price ended upping 2 times his estimate and everything fell apart ...

Short story is that the house is just finishing and Axiom has been holding everything for 3 years and has been fantastic about it.

BTW, I know you are using top notch cables to power yours. I'll be using cheap rca cables that I've accumulated over the years and wire from a rusty old clothesline as speaker cable. Yup...$23K in speakers, DSPs, amps and subs and $2-worth of interconnects. That's the Mojo way.

Mojo - I Actually went with Blue Jeans cables for interconnects and the 12 gauge Axiom speaker wire.

Oh I know. I read everything you post. Yours are top notch cables compared to mine. Most of the RCA cables I'll be using date back to the early 80s and are being held together with scotch tape.

With those actives coming you should probably get something a little better than scotch taped. At least some fresh RG6 with crimp on's.

Agreed. I've now duct taped them. The scotch tape was yellowed and crusty.

Think he's gonna need to upgrade his image to go along with his new system. A new car, wardrobe, furnishings ... a new Mojo all around

I can't. With the exception of audio gear, I live very humbly in an old, small house with a 13-year old rust bucket of a small car and a 40-year old van that I use as my mobile domicile for sentimental reasons.

And here I had a vision of you sitting in your chair, dressed in tails, sippin Champaign with one of those lady freinds of yours on your arm ... while listening to your A-LFRs setup up to perfection ...

Mojo, mine are set to be shipped out this week! Monoprice speaker cable, banana plugs and interconnects arrived today.

Only thing missing is a power strip... My snake oil sensors are flashing and looking for input. A Furman or Tripp Lite run around $30 odd, an Amazon Basics $15... Then there are Panamax and others at $$$ shocked

Any thoughts?

I've tested mine. I hooked a heater up to it and I can pull 1500W with no voltage variation.

Yes. I have found most 'conditioners' degrade sound quality. Isotek makes some nice and fine sounding conditioners, power cables, and regenerators.

They cost a bit, but are excellent products.

The two single ladies across the street don't like my blinds closed.
