I'm happy to announce I've received some QS10s, and I LOVE the sound the produce!

I had one QS8 from 15 years ago and was not impressed and was reluctant to get these guys. I'm super happy I did. This is adding a huge amount of BOOM in the back of the room. Sounds amazing and fits my room perfect with tweeters pointing in the kitchen and in the living room. These are the speakers I needed from the very beginning!

These guys were ordered as rosewood high gloss.

Oooh. Wood! Pretty!

I don't have grills on any of my speakers. Like to look at the drivers!

Damn. They aren't lying on the high gloss. Very sharp looking. I really like the sound of the QS10s too. I'm moving mine to rears next weekend and then eventually they'll be mains for zone 2 for the pool table area on the rear wall.

Gorgeous.

I love my QS10s. Been using mine for almost 4 years now.

They are amazing

Congrats man smile

I'd love them more with triple 8 inch woofers!

I love the added centre driver compared to the QS8s. They almost act like a direct radiating surround and also a dispersion surround with the configuration.
I'm trying to decide with the speaker updates whether to go all QS10s or keep the QS8s on the sides and use QS10s in the back, or vice versa.

That's easy. All QS10s if you really benefit from rears.

Just double them up ... 2 pairs are better than one ... Right?
Oh, and throw in an EP125 for good measure ... should about do it. smile

Rich, such strong thinking, powerful solutions. You must be an engineer.

I was thinking if we place them back to back, we can have an omni-directional speaker, yeah?

I think there'd be wave cancellation.

After listening to these guys more and more I just have to say, DAMN, I love the boom in the back of the room! Nothing comes close! The highs fill my room perfectly. No room treatments/acoustics needed. Love the directional tweeters. They are one of Axiom's most impressive engineering accomplishments! I never thought I would of said that, the 15 year old QS8's were awful, had no bass and sounded terrible. I know they were version one but they stunk. These guys rock!

Well now...let's see. The v4 tweeters, improved mid-woofers, HP woofer and enclosure already existed. Ian, while wearing his Axiom mankini, likely spent about 15 minutes on the cross-over while downing a beer on his water skiis with Amie thrown over his left shoulder. Probably the most impressive feat of engineering was specifying where exactly to cut the hole for the HP woofer and its diameter.

Yeah your probably right... although the true engineering feet was Ian determining which shoulder to throw Amie over without breaking his back! hehe

shit..on second thought, Amie is really lite, Ian's back is really bad... please don't ban me Amie...hehe um, gulp.

Rebulx, be careful. Amie isn't going to give you a sweet thigh lock like your girl. She'll be a bit more aggressive like Sonya.

lol, yeah... I do enjoy a good thigh grab however, without the graphic fatality! The wife is now working full time in the business and after watching your video link, i've determined it's in my best interest to refrain from any more close quarters combat fun!
