Sorry for the delay. I would guess shipping would be about $100 for all 3 speakers but I will get you a more precise estimate by tomorrow. thanks.

As Promised, here is our article: Do Loudspeaker Manufacturers Really Make Their Own Drivers? | Audioholics

My brother-in-law bought a pair of black EMP E55ti Towers and E55Wi Surround speakers at the last Audioholics GTG Event. They are in mint condition and he still has the original boxes. He is selling the set because he can't take them with him at College. He is asking $650 shipped (USA...

We have plenty of negative reviews of speakers if you search our database. The problem with negative reviews however is they not only offend manufacturers, but owners of the products too. It's a tight balancing act to make everyone happy, one we've had to learn the hard way over the years.

It's kinda of mind boggling how much there is to speaker design, particularly driver mechanics. Things often seem simple on the surface but generally much more complex as you dig deeper. Tweeter design is very tricky which is why most loudspeaker companies don't make their own. They rely on...

Yea I'm not sure if Axiom owns the factory or not but you can certainly ask them. an excerpt from our article publishing next week that is relevant to this discussion: <!--[if gte mso 9]><![endif]--> on the flip side, it's very possible the Dayton is a sort of copy cat design. Either way the...

Axiom tweeter impedance Not sure so i pulled the tweeter out of my other M3v2 on-wall and measured to compare. There does seem to be some differences in resonance which I can only guess has to do with the amount of ferro-fluid used in both samples? I didn't see this variation when I...

Twweters measured in am M3v2 on-wall I measured the stock Axiom tweeter and Dayton tweeter when integrated into an M3V2 On-wall speaker. Both measurements were done with the same mic position 12" away slightly below the tweeter axis. Again as you can see, they produce a different response.

I measured both tweeters on the ground. I didn't bother to test power since my initial purpose was to validate the claim if the tweeters were identical. Clearly they have different voice coils. Down the road I can always build a baffle and do more tests but I think this is sufficient to show...

Dayton vs Axiom Driver Thought I'd make a correction in this thread as it was mentioned that the Axiom and Dayton drivers were one in the same. I was able to get a sample of the Dayton driver and compare it to my Axiom V2 driver found in my M3v2s I have on hand. These drivers are NOT...

There is quite a substantial difference not just in output capabilities, but in dynamics and realism when you compare budget designs to cost no object products that are properly engineered. $1k/pr doesn't get you close to the law of diminishing returns.

You have to be very careful with using multiple tweeters to avoid acoustical interference issues. I agree with you the EMP's could use a tad more energy in the top end. This can be accomplished by using a tweeter with higher sensitivity and power handling. That is a much better approach than...

Hey guys, can you try to submit this article to Slashdot.org? I think its newsworthy for that site. Thanks.

A WTW design when properly executed is still a viable design and in some aspects has advantages over W(T/M)W designs. An MTM has significantly less off-axis lobing errors than a TWWWT design which isn't used by any other commercial manufacturer that I am aware of other than Axiom. However if...

This is a good reference for you when shopping between ID speaker brands. As you will find, some of the less expensive options on the list actually wind up being the most pricey when you factor in premium finish and parts upgrades. There are many great brands out there and some even offer FREE...

For those who don't follow the audio show circuit, Capital Audiofest is the Washington D.C. area's annual event. More than 40 separate displays and demos were setup for guests to browse through. The products featured ran the gambit from massive fully horn loaded loudspeakers to diminutive...

There are a lot of caveats to that. Have you ever heard of a consumer actually collecting on such a warranty? I haven't personally and I know many people whose equipment that was attached to a similar surge protector with warranty was fried and not covered.

Hey John, how you been? I saw your post and wanted to see what all the fuss was about on this thread. Haven't read the whole thread yet but wanted to point out that Audioholics.com is NOT responsible for opinions/comments fellow forum members make on this site. You can read our FAQ and legal...

The database for the new site was copied 2 weeks ago. So any articles newer than that wont redirect since they don't yet exist on the new site. That will all change the moment we flip the switch which I am hoping will be by this weekend. thx.
