I can't believe I have my speakers already. I only payed for them last Friday (QS8's and VP 150) and I picked them up today, I live in Perth Western Australia.

Damn fast service Axiom \:\)

Now I will have to wait until the weekend before I can play with them. The VP 150 is one huge center speaker and the QS'8s are not as big as I had imagined, but they are heavy.

Seriously, you have to make the effort if you want to fit in around here, Graeme.

Isn't it stayhomeandinstallyourspeakersITIS?

He has to get it right if he's to call in sick!

Doc, write him a note. It's a mental illness, right? That we all have?

Well I work two jobs, get up at 2am and don't get home until 4:30 pm.

The little woman would have a piece of me if I said I was sick and she came home to find the speakers up and the house rocking \:\)

Anyway it's all Axioms fault for sending them so fast lol

Congrats Graeme. I'm a little jealous as that is far faster than the speakers reach Texas from Canada. Axiom must be experimenting with the space time continuum to develop faster global shipping routes. ;\)

I was absolutely amazed, I thought they sent me a tracking order via email, I am still waiting for the tracking order \:\)

I was also lucky that I bought them when I did, as the price has increased a few hundred. I now have to wait until our dollar strengthens before I can get the EP 500 and M80's.

Welcome to the club, Graeme. We would all like to see some pictures when you get a chance. I think many here would probably like to see the pics of the boxes as well to see how they faired the long trip. I am amazed how much damage various carriers can do to the boxes. You will surely like your VP150 and QS8s. If you are also planning to get the M80s and the EP500, you will be very happy indeed. What will be the source equipment?

Welcome Graeme, enjoy your speakers after the install.

there was no damage at all to the boxes or speakers:) As soon as I get a chance to get them hooked up I will take a few pics.

By the Source Equipment, you mean AV etc? I currently have a Yamaha 661 which I will be upgrading, I have decided to go with Denon this time and am looking at the AVR 4308, but I will be doing some research first. I bought a Samsung BDP 1500 and have Foxtel IQ2. I am considering hooking the Yammy up to the new AV as well, not sure if it will be any benefit or not though.

Have you hooked up your speakers yet and if so what are your impressions?

Cheers,
