Do you all know how difficult and time-consuming it is to select resistors that are low noise? RESISTORS! Something that to green engineers appears to be dead simple. We're talking 2 cent parts that make the difference between a great product and one destined for the trash bin. And once you've selected a vendor and type for your resistors, if you really want to be sure the resistors will meet intended noise margins, you have to test them coming in through the Receiving department before you assemble them into your product. Those tests are not simple (see link below).

Now think about all the component types besides resistors that go into a product.

I've got an Emotiva 5 channel coming over this weekend from a friend so we can see how these M100s are supposed to play. My Yamaha RX-A860 just can't do the job... but man I still love these M100s! I'm also looking forward to hearing the M5 on walls with the new amp, hoping the Emotiva can move that 6" woofer!

Hopefully it has metal film rather than carbon resistors. Metal film rocks!

Ordering the m100s if I can get the website to take my affirm order. It's not working for some reason. Waiting on a response from Axiom to see what the issue is.

There's also a problem with applying the 21 day discount that Axiom knows about. It's holding up my order which I want fast because I have an acoustic emergency...LOL!

Did you all notice how the B-stock emptied out? it went from 9 pages to 1.2 virtually over-night. Some dirty scoundrel bought the 500 in aged walnut espresso that I had been eyeing for the last year. I got busy with meetings and couldn't buy in time.

Yeah, I was noticing that last night. I was looking for B-stock in Ebony before I attempted my order.

The M80HP in walnut espresso look outstanding. I love my walnut espresso M2 bookshelves.

Problem is, they are not M100s. Different amplitude response curves.

Looks like they have a set of QS10s in walnut espresso too, Mojo.
