Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater M100s?

We went down that path and discovered his She-Hulk wife would thigh-choke him. We also agreed that might be kinda fun!

That’s too bad. It would be a good orientation for all the variables of the setup.

It would be worth it to just try it as an experiment. And if it works or doesn’t then at least you’d know. The curiosity would be killing me.

You could have multiple positions that work for different scenarios. ( Speakers not thigh wrestling )

I’ve got 3 different setups / positioning for mine. ( Again, speakers not thigh wrestling. ) But I’m only dealing with 2 channel.

Yeah...that's exactly my illness. When I put speakers in a room, I throw everything out first, and then set them up in multiple ways and listen.

I do that at friends' places and it drives them nuts because once they hear good, they don't want to live with mediocre. Unfortunately they don't have the freedom I do and their wives aren't as much fun as Rebulx's.

I wouldn’t be able to NOT try it. I’m working around kids and a wife here but when the opportunity comes up I do a full setup for a listening session in the best position, which is also the most daily unliveable one.

I’ve got:
1. Station Keeping ( most livable and most aesthetic )
2. Holographic ( away from side walls more and moved out from back wall, can setup in 4-6 mins ). Dangerous for kids due to knocking over and scratching.
3. Ultimate. Takes 20-30 mins of setup lot’s of moving stuff but outs setup on my wider width wall and longer length wall. Exceptional. I’ve only done it a few times now bc it’s a major re working if all cables etc

Haven’t yet but I’d like to try my setup in a small room too. Just to see how it sounds.

Rebulx, you should try bringing the m100s off the rock dais and down into the carpet. That will at least move them away from back walls ( better for clarity and non muddy bass ) and get your tweeters closer to ear level. It could be why you don’t like the tweeters. If I toe out my ti tweet they are less bright and it improves the image and makes things less directional.

Bring them down lower , a touch wider , with very gentle toe in. Don’t be shy to use the tone control either with the treble. Just a little bit of treble. It’s not heresy to use the tone knobs or adjusters.

I actually was thinking about moving the TV above the fire place, that will most likely happen very soon, but i'm enjoying these M100s where they are now. I love these speakers!

Listener, I can't sacrifice the view, as the glass doors over look the water and turning the couch around would put our backs to the water. Yes, that makes the most acoustic sense though, but the the wife would never oblige.

Water view is hard to beat. I noticed you're from Florida. Where in Florida do you reside? I'm thinking of bringing my family for a six to ten week getaway there this winter since we are working remotely anyways and kids have the option to remote learn. I usually go to Fort Lauderdale, but this year plan on visiting the gulf side. Probably around Sarasota and Fort Myers.

Rebulx, favourite tune so far you’ve played on the m100?

How’s things sounding at different volumes?

great question Kodiak... I would have to say "The Good The Bad and The ugly" on youtube...

thats my favorite, but man i've heard some incredible lows from these speakers. Tonight I switched to two channel and had to walk around my listening space to make the other subs were not playing as it went so deep. I just could not believe these cabinets could handle such lows! You need M100s, DO NOT COMPROMISE! I had the M80 on walls and what a difference, it's like JV vs NFL.


I'm really looking for new stuff to listen to as most of what i've found on the forums is just drum kicks, which are fun for about 2 minutes, lol

I'm excited to report that I have a bad ass amp coming over this weekend Kodiak so I should have a more comprehensive over view of these M100s next week., as my puny receiver has not down the greatest job when going loud, but still the 100's shine.
