In naughty pine for a center channel application. Fed Ex admitted they brutally tortured it as evidenced by the gouges. Axiom will be building another. That's pretty bad if they made it all the way through all that packaging.

Apparently the forklift driver felt there was no problem with stabbing through the packaging.

That's one of my favorite modes the DTSX for music the Anthem also has a mode that does all channels minus the center. {Anthem music} Also really good similar to DTSX a little more stereo. Though I usually switch back to DTSX. Sad when you hear about such parcels getting mangled and it's not like the box isn't covered in warnings . {AXIOM Audio} and all. They see FRAGILE and test if it can last a staircase or something.

Yeah, FedEx got one of my LFR1100s as well. First time in 20+ years of delivering audio equipment. Delivery services must be under stress. Ian is making a new one for me as well.
Enjoy the Music. Trust your ears. Laugh at Folks Who Claim to Know it All.

Yup. They are the Bryston drivers. Slimpikins has Model Ts for fronts, the sphincter-free M80 with Bryston drivers for a center and QS10HPs for sides. He's looking at M5HPs for the back. He also has a Bryston sub, an 800 and two 500s. It's all powered by 10,000 Watts through a dedicated panel. He has Anthem M1s for his Ts. It's a humble set-up for his gorgeous 20,000 cu. ft. living room. LOL!

I wonder if they would sell me 6x 8” Bryston drivers and if they are 8ohm.
I would love to replace the dayton RS225-8 drivers in my DIY towers. I love the tactile response from the HP drivers.

You're probably looking at $350 each.
