Hello owners. I've curious about the power handling difference between the front and back arrays. Do I assume the back array has the same specs as an M22? The product page makes no reference to this (it should) and there is no online owners manual which I find to be a glaring omission. I will probably have to call the "experts" but I thought I'd throw the question out here first. I also think the nominal impedance for the back is probably 8 ohms not 4. Thanks for any info.

PS Anyone know why the M100 weighs 4 lbs more per speaker?

The M100 has the HP drivers so it's a bit heavier.
The specs for all the surround {Q series} are all 8ohm as most amps don't push the full wattage to the rear, so a 4ohm would probably send an amp in to clipping pretty quick.

The HP drivers are the new standard spec on my LFR's for v4. The back array I was referring to are the rear firing speakers on the LFR. They have their own input terminals as each LFR requires at least 2 channels of amplification. 4 ohm impedance front and back.

Sorry thought you meant 100s
Yes the LFRs require 4 channels for the pair and HP is standard in both.
Most likely the rear is also 4ohm due to they are a front channel.

The rear is 8. The front is 4. Actually more like 3.5 below 200 Hz.

I actually checked the LFR1100 product page and they have added the fact that both arrays are nom 4 ohm. I'm just annoyed about the lack of information on Axiom's website. These are their flagship speakers and no owner's manual, probably a wrong weight spec, v3 pictures etc. I'm the who asked if the DSP doesn't have a 12v triigger, why are you advertising that it does? They changed it at least.
