Well, i have had my axioms for a couple months now and I love them.

I have a question for people who have bought from the scratch and dent catalog, how bad were your speakers when you received them? I only ask because my m22's were in perfect condition. But, my vp100 had this crack running along the bottom of the speaker which has evolved into the entire front wood panel coming loose(I beleive from me taking off the cover). I am kind of disapointed because I think this can affect the performance, i will post pictures soon.

Oh my! I highly highly doubt that your VP100 was shipped out from Axiom that way. That sort of extensive damage would never be approved as b-stock. I bet you it was damaged in shipping.

Call Axiom right away and tell them all about it. They'll probably replace it.

I would be sure it did'nt leave the factory in that shape.I bought my M80's from the factory outlet and they are in perfect shape as far as I can tell.I looked at every sqaure inch and have'nt found anything wrong.

I bought Qs8s and VP 100 from the b stock list. One of the QS8s had a small fudge/discoloration on one of the woofers. The covers are on it and it isn't noticeable. Also, one of the grills came slightly broken and the fabric was scratched. One of the plastic posts on the QS8 is broken but it isn't anything at all.

I think I couldn't find anything wrong with the Vp 100. Its been a while.

Anyways, The b stock list is fullproof.
