Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Time to say hello!

Hi, everybody!
My name is Octavian.I am 55 years old and I love (good) music and movies.TWO years ago I began looking for a new set of speakers, to replace my 9 year old Acoustic Profiles system). I discovered Axiom by chance(Internet) and I started to read this forum daily.That's why I dare to consider myself part of this nice big family.You can imagine that I've learned a lot from all of you.
I would like to take this opportunity to express my grattitude and to thank you all!You are really nice people and it was a great pleasure for me to read this forum.
I always told my wife how much I like Axiom-from products to customer service to this forum.One month ago I started to finish the basement.When we had to decide the surrounds' placement I told my wife that I will use Axioms' FMB.She agreed and I got them delivered the next day, along with 2 emails from Amie!
Two days later, my wifw asked me:"-I would like to make you a Christmas present, what about ...a set of Axiom speakers?"
...You can imagine my shock and joy!
On November 13(lucky number for me!) I ordered M60,VP150,QS8-Factory Outlet, all in black(my David 302 sub is black).They should arrive just before Christmas.You all know what this waiting period mean...
Again, the same amazing customer service.
I was verry satisfied with the Acoustic Profiles, but after all I've read on this board I am 99% confident that I will die with this set of speakers!
Thank you all again!
Regards,
Octavian
P.S.My home will always be open for an audition.(Whitby,Ontario-30Km. East of Toronto,HWY 401)

Warm welcome, Octavian! Thank you for the kind words.

I am sure you will enjoy your speakers. I have a similar setup and could not be happier.

Please do report back and share your impressions after you have a chance to enjoy your new system.

Welcome aboard. Like you, I ordered M60, VP100 and QS4 just before Nov 15. Mine is light maple with black grille. Still waiting. I think we may organize a greater Toronto chapter so to share our experience. I'm in North East Scarborugh. I know some of us are from this area.

Enjoy.

Thank you tomtuttle!
Of course I will share my impressions with you...I hope I will finish the basement before their arrival.
Regards,
Octavian

Octavian - what a nice post. Welcome aboard. Also, let me speak for Ajax in saying it's nice to have another older guy around to share the abuse we take!! You are going to love the Axioms and we will need pictures!

Thank you romeo!
Sure, we should change impressions or even meet sometimes...I did not know that there are so many Axiom owners so close to my location, I did not see them in the specific area of this forum, the closest one that I found was in Barrie.Why did you go with VP 100/QS 4 instead of 150/8 ?(my room is 25/13/8, I sit 12-13 feet in front of the TV).
Regards,
Octavian

Thank you Ray3!
I am sure I will like the speakers...ther are so many people who I think could not be wrong!
I did not understand-what do you mean "speak for Ajax"-Ajax from this Forum, and why do you want to speak for him?
Regards,
Octavian

Jsut a figure of speech. Jack (Ajax) and I are generally regarded as the "old guys" around here and it will be nice to have another comrade-in-age. Also, Jack is MUCH older and tends to nap & drool alot, so somebody has to speak for him.

Thanks Ray, I got it! Anyway, good for my age, I (almost) knew you're talking about Ajax from this forum .
Regarding the "old"(age), remember that it is your spirit that is young (or old)...and do not despair, we have the music...and THE AXIOM!
Regards,
Octavian

Well, if it's your spirit that is young or old, I'm in DEEP trouble!

Welcome Octavian! While I do nap a lot (I just woke up from my morning nap. I wanted to be rested and ready for my afternoon nap), Ray spends much more money on Depends than I do.

Boy! With Ray, and me, and Koiman, and now Pizoni, all you young guys, like TomTuttle, better watch your step.
