Uh, Waffles-blueberry or strawberry, hard to tell.
Corndog-without stick.
Two little toy cars and a plastic green and red frog.

All thankfully in Pre-Axiom speakers, the kids FULLY UNDERSTAND the consequences of even going within three feet of my Axioms!!!!(Well, Ok, don't touch, anyway.)

A real frog a couple years ago, however, got in the house, and while being chassed down by one of the kids happened to jump into the side of one of my M3s(the left one, I think; yeah, the right side of the left speaker)but just bounced off rather than get inside. It landed behind the sub and was never seen-or smelled!!-again.

I'll have to ask my daughter to be sure, but I don't believe she's ever had a speaker in the house devoured by a gator-that might make an interesting, related story.

In reply to:

I hope my kids don't discover my ports or I'm likely to see dinky cars, silly putty, cookies or gosh knows what in them.




Uh oh, I better get to another thread, this stuff is starting to bring back flashbacks. Maybe getting old ain't so bad afterall!

John, see Section 69.69 Texas Criminal Code: Lewd or Obscene Acts Affecting Audio Equipment.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Thoughts of peanut butter sandwiches and the like prompted me to have a chat with my kids at dinner this evening about Dad's speakers and the does and don'ts when around them.

I'm reasonably confident 2 out of 3 are on side. Not so sure about my 23 month old though. She just smiled and parrotted me "peanut butter", "daddies speakers"!

OK, now I'm sure everyone can see why the M50s are superior to the M60s and M80s. The port that's not covered by the grill is near the top, out of the reach of children until they can be taught to know better!

Peter, here's your chance to prove that Steven's even bigger than I think.

I believe the official awnser is...

The batting in the speaker is always down on the bottom there...and.. Well. up higher too. But no worries. Its fine. Air can still flow out the port.
