I might be in the market for on wall speakers and I am wondering if Axiom is coming out with anything new or newer revisions?

Just be thankful you can still get speakers. Buy them now before supply chains come to a screeching halt in 6 months!

I know they're working on new grills but Ian wants them in leather and Amie is fighting for lace. I say leather up top and lace down below.

Maybe a special edition lime green acoustically transparent "lycra spandex blend", "Mojo Mankini Grills". But not too transparent if you know what i mean.....

Mojo's a showman ... Think a while back he mentioned something about sitting in his living room and being one with his naked drivers ... his big bay window's only privacy is apparently some spindly tree ... IMO, I'd think anything he might put on, transparent or not, would be an improvement smile

Spiroh, all joking aside, if you're inthe market for OW speakers, if you haven't already, check out the B-stock and Refurb stores online. There is a hearty selection of reduced price m3OW v4 right now. Very reasonably priced, but they may not by the woodgrain or color choice you need or want, that the only hiccup.

In terms of m3v4, I just purchased a bookshelf version of that speaker and it's a lovely little speaker that im slowly getting to know. I really enjoy it, it has a great soundstage and image playing from my old modest reciever in my bedroom, nice bass that is not over done. It has less forward midrange than im used to with my m60ti floorstander. Its not a bad thing though, just different. I really like them.

Full disclosure, i have never heard the on walls personally, but if they sound similar, ( which i think they would if you installed them correctly ) i can recommend them as a nice sounding speaker and quality build too. Boston cherry real wood veneer is very nice.

Yup. I cut down Moe, the giant pine, because the neighbor across the street was complaining she couldn't see through my window. Now she's glued to hers with a popcorn bucket in her lap.

Meghan, my mountain ash, is only spindly in the winter. One day, I might post a photo of her cute, little butt.

For the highly fragmented loudspeaker market, it's not unusual to see 10-15 year production runs. One year a company might update the subs, another year the tweeters, another year the woofers, and another the inventory management system...

The only meaningful audio development I see in the future is the 5.1.x multichannel wireless audio market. Enclave Audio is almost there, but I don't want plastic speaker enclosures and tiny drivers. I'm sure latency is an issue, but I would gladly switch my passive speakers and AVR for such a system if it's the right price.
