Axiom Audio announced a new Millennia "Garage" speaker, which is an on-wall version of their popular M3 v2 speaker. The speaker comes with a diamond-plate styled enclosure and has the same performance and specifications as the traditional M3 v2 speaker. The Millennia "Garage" speaker supports up to 175 watts of maximum power and has a frequency response of 60-22 kHz (+/-3dB) with an in-room sensitivity rating of 92 db SPL @ 1W/1m.
Interesting product.
My old bookshelf speakers are more than adequate for the garage and they cost <$100. I am not sure why someone would pay more for a pair "designed for the garage" then they would for the comparable speakers used in their HT.
If I wanted to impress people with the finish, I would get real wood veneer and not vinyl.

When I think of garage speaker, I think of a design impervious to saw dust, paint and stain fumes, and the occassional knock from poorly placed junk.
The only other design that would qualify is a "disposable" speaker. I wired my receiver inside but speakers do not do much good inside.
