Hello there Axiom experts,

I have been looking at a used Vp150 version one. What are the differences between the version one and two?

Kind regards

Come on Aaron, loosen the purse strings take the short drive to the factory and check out the new VP180!

You would be best to call Axiom on the differences.

When are you coming to Burlington next?

Doesn't anyone use search anymore. Over time (years) Axiom makes/improves their products, through research, development, and testing. Some of these changes can be minor and others might be more significant, but this really is no different than any other mfg.

As far as from V1 to V2, I believe there was some modest changes to the crossover and tweeter driver material. I'm sure someone at Axiom could go into more details. In regards to sound, you most likely would be hard pressed to "hear" any difference.

I google everyone's mother, if that's what you're talking about.

Not exactly the answer one should expect from the " Customer Council".

Plus the search on this forum sucks.

Yeah. I have tried both the forum search as well as the search engine in the water cooler in the past and both are equally useless.

You aught to be ashamed!! What happened to the good old days when respectable young lads only looked up womens skirts?

No respectable young lads to be found on this forum, move along....

Excuse me, some obviously didn't see the following the sentence. Anyway, I tried to answer the question, sorry if I offended some. What are your expert reasons?

Must have gone blind from, well something or other...

As a general rule, Axiom tries to get each iteration of the speaker to a more flat response on and off axis. When we've spoken about this, Ian has emphasized the off axis response as something they've really been working on recently. That said, I don't know of any specific differences between the VP150ti and the VP150v2.

Did the earliest versions of the VP150 have a different tweeter arrangement?

I don't think any production versions of the 150 had a different tweeter arrangement. I remember Ian saying some time ago that they'd tried a bunch in the lab, and this one had the best characteristics.

Hello all,

Thank you for the responses. It is clear that there are some differences but nothing major. I recently purchased a VP150 that is a version 1 or Ti series. I just wanted to know the differences between it and the version two.

I will probably just end up covering it in Rosewood to match my subs and M80s.

I have some M1ti's and the tweeters are definitely different than my M60 V2 and VP100 V2. They don't even look the same. I don't know if those are the tweeters on the V1 VP150 or not, but if I were matching a VP 150 to Axiom fronts, I would go with V2 all around.

The M1's would have had the hybrid tweeter as did the original QS4s, IIRC. The VP100/150 and the rest of the Axiom lineup as it now stands all have had the same tweeter from inception.

Well, the same type of tweeter...

Ya, type of tweeter, as a few have different housing now.

There's been more changes than just the housing, but I don't know the details.
