Posted By: merlinzz Awaiting my first set of Axioms... - 02/11/08 08:39 PM
I ordered my new setup at the end of January and am anxiously awaiting the arrival of my new system. I ordered the Architectual Grand Master 350 (VP150, QS8s, W22s, 350v3 sub) in the HG cherry. Can't wait too see and hear them.

So, to make room for these (and to fund them!) I ditched my B&W Matrix 805s, Boston Lynfield VR920 center and Velodyne 1200 sub. (I left my surrounds in the old house.) Any opinions on how these will stack up sound-wise? The biggest reason I did this was to go on-wall and to get the timbre matching that I was missing from a hodge-podge system before, even though it was all good stuff.

This will be a great system. Are the W22 in high gloss? That will be interested to see.

Welcome to the Axiom family.

It's a prerequisite for hanging around the boards, you know.


Congrats!

I am in Marion (CedarRapids area). I will definitely get some pics when I get them installed. Everything is High Gloss. I have a 120" screen that the LCR will go around with an Optoma HD80 projector (fantastic picture) and will drive them with a Denon 3808.

I used to live in Cedar Rapids about 9 years ago. Now I am in Pleasant Hill near Des Moines. Sirquack (as he is called) is also from the Des Moines area, then we have SonicFox (whom we haven't seen in a while) who is in the Quad Cities. I am sure that there are others, but these are the Iowa names you will see the most on here.
