Hello people,
Its here!! Finally! After doing 5 months of research, and then sort of stumbling onto this site (Now I dont even remember how..), and then lurking around a million and a half sound and HT forums including this one, reading half as many reviews, and emailing the great folks at Axiom my half a dozen questions..phew, they're finally here after about a month of waiting. Ordered them from the outlet: M60s, VP100, QS8s and my SVS PCi sub that came in just yesterday (talk about timing). Man that SVS is huge..tho it looked so much smaller in pictures.
But anyways, I did see that the majority of you who own M60s have the VP150 instead of the VP100 that comes standard with the Epic 60 package which I found interesting. But man I tell ya, what a difference in sound these 60s make compared to my old DCM KX10s. Pictures coming up..stand by..!!

Glad you like them! I also have M60s and I couldn't be happier... Although it makes me want to change around my other components - heh.

At the risk of repeating myself, I'm always so surprised when someone's FIRST post is "They're here." I would've thought you'd have a least one or two question to ask us BEFORE you bought, though asking them of Axiom is certainly a wise policy.
Regardless, it's always great fun to share in the excitement when someone's speakers arrive and they set them up for the first time. Do post those pics when you get time, please. And WELCOME!
Jack

I noticed his post was time-stamped at 4:14AM (adjusted to my time?). Sounds like SOMEBODY was up all night playing with them!
Mine are a couple of weeks off, and unfortunately, scheduled to arrive on the Friday before my in-laws come up for the weekend. I have to see if my wife will get convincing at saying "He's working on a very important project with a tight deadline, but he'll meet you for a quick breakfast the morning you're leaving"!
It'll work if I can avoid cranking Floyd.
Actually, I LIKE my inlaws, and my Father-in-law forces me out on the golf course to relax a little! Just bad timing is all....
Enjoy the Axioms... I'm jealous for thirteen days....

Good for you but may be 'bad for my wallet'. The more I get into this site, the more I will spend 'some money' on M60. I'm more on stereo music listening than HT. I already have a KEF 105.2 speaker which serves me well in the past 16 years.
May be it's a good excuse to tell my wife the 105.2 should retire. KEF cost more than M60 (another good reason). Hope I will join the club soon.
Please post your impression in the near future if possible.

Qiksand, you will be hapy with the VP100. It's an excellent speaker and the M60s add a bit of false center to the mix as well. I always envy the new Axiomite their first few weeks with the boys. Enjoy !

Thanks a lot guys. BTW I got the Mansfield Beech with black grilles.
I have the pictures ready but am in a bit of a fix. I just found out that we cant upload pictures onto the forum and one has to have these uploaded already to a website. Dang!! Time for the Axiom webmaster to think of an owners gallery ) "hint hint"! Until then, I'll be searching for that website to upload these pictures to..

There is already an "owners gallery", the so-called "wall of fame". You just have to send your pics to Amie for posting. BTW you can navigate to the page via the FAQs for the main site (not the board/forum FAQ) -- the link is about half way down the FAQ page.

You're link worked just fine. Welcome to the Axiom family. Good to see another Sammy DLP owner. Is that the HLN507 model" I've got the HLN4365, and am very happy with it. Been watching the World series in Hi Def. Pretty nice.

Nice! Judging by the appearance of your older speakers (no offense!), it looks like you took quite a leap up in terms of sound quality.

In reply to:

NA, i will let you live.. at least long enough to enjoy your new TV for a while.
i cant wait to see pics of it... i am sure of the click and drag variety. the dang thing might be sooo big, you wont be able to size it down to even fit on the screen..
i went and looked at some LCD's at circuit city a few weeks back. they had a 42 inch that had the BEST picture of any TV in that whole store.. it was only $5000, so i am trying to sell my newborn on EBAY.

Hey John
Youre right. It is the HLN507W. And I have seen pictures of the 720p killer..introducing the HLP6197W..

I know Axioms very own Alan had gone down to check out CES earlier this year. Im sure he's even seen the thing up close..
