 2 ADA1500 penta amps Integra Research BAT RDA7 7 channel amp Rotel amp for the ELAC Atmos speakers pair of QS8s pair of Mission 77ds surround speakers Axiom EP600 and a Big HSU something or other sub VP160 OPPO UDP205 finally back from OPPO. Does not play well with the Sony XBR75 940d Played a Haifetz SACD, incredible sound until audio dropped out. The Sony allows the OPPO to play red book CDs. Played the soundtrack from the Accountant for a client. The drums hit so hard he literally jumped out of his seat. The sound quality of the LFR1100s Actives is incredible. Most excellent work Ian. Thank you for the music!!!

GREAT review! Straight to the point, well done! Phil, I agree with Craig, without the hyperbole that has become rampant on this board. Knowing your audio experience, glad to see you are liking them!

Phil, you neglected to mention the amplitude, frequency and spatial selectivity the active LFR1100s offer.  True though!

BTW, Phil, what happened to the high gloss rosewood?

Oh yes, Mr. Mojo, much spatial, fantastic amplitude, and overwhelmingly beautiful frequency!
So, Axiom delivered the LFR1100As in a dull rosewood, instead of high gloss. Axiom once again demonstrated its superb customer service, and is building a pair of high gloss rosewoods for me. I can't wait to receive them. I'm sure the high gloss will result in even better spatial, amplitude and frequency!

Once you get the high gloss rosewood, just send that dull rosewood my way.

I can't wait to receive them. I think we have all experienced Axiom's great service - I have on several occasions dating back to the mid/late 1990's - however, if it was truly superb you would have received the correct models the first time.

What you are suggesting is perfection. When anyone can post a business that has never made a mistake, then we can decide that "superb" can be applied if the business hits perfection. Superb is a business that readily acknowledges the mistake, takes correction to remedy the mistake, and makes the customer feel good for having done so. An analogy most of us have experienced - something is wrong with an order at a restaurant. The staff's response is now going to determine the experience. 25 years ago, a friend of my wife and her husband had a restaurant. A customer complained that her broiled chicken sandwich wasn't done enough. The husband, as the owner, took the sandwich to the kitchen. He came back out 20 minutes later with a sandwich that was slightly overdone. He also let the customer know that he had taken a bite of the first sandwich, and it was "cooked properly." He was out of business 6 months later. THAT is textbook for how NOT to handle something "superbly." Food for thought.
