Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners M50 to M5HP upgrade expectations

We've been having issues with UPS changing our current address to our old address. I have been down to UPS several times and spoken with the shipping managers on numerous occasions and explained that our house is new construction and we are currently living there and the address on our packages is valid. They have typed it into their computer several times and every time we have another package coming we get notification that they have updated our address to our old address and have delivered our packages there. Needless to say, I have everything shipped to my office address now.

Mike, any news on the delivery status of your M5s?

They finally released the dangerous boxes yesterday. Tracking says they have been delivered. I'll find out in another hour and a half when I get home

Well, Fedex brought me one speaker. It's beautiful, but it definitely needs a mate. Fedex tracking still says delivery by 8 pm today, it's 10. Hopefully tomorrow so I can install Sunday.

Glad you like the wood Boston Cherry. It would be cool to see a photo of your M50 Boston Cherry vinyl next to the M5.

I love the discount for the 21 day wait but the actual waiting and anticipation drives me nuts...

I'm going to have to build a small temporary wall to mount the one m5 because if I don't my child would probably run into it. I may even go ahead and frame it out and get the redheads drilled into the concrete.


Mike, let us know when the other speaker arrives. I'm sure it's frustrating they only delivered one.

Mojo, not sure how to do that but I'll give it a try

I took the 21 day discount also but so far it's turned into a 31 day discount. Not Axiom's fault. Sunday morning and still no second speaker. Perfect rainy day to install and play with these too. Looks like it'll have to be next weekend.

Maybe this link will work. The color of the M5 is almost identical to the M50 but it is just slightly richer, more saturated. And the M5 finish has a nice satin sheen whereas the M50 is flat. The M5 is definitely prettier and a big upgrade over the vinyl. Enough that I almost wish there was more wood surface on the face and less grill.

Looks real nice. Especially with your floors. I like the Axioms better with the grills off.
