But you can choose the Vassallo Series speaker, add it to your cart, and get a general idea of the cost for wood veneer.

I can't find that bit. Can you link to it?

In the Custom Shop under Step 3--Choose your Product--the Vassallo Series is listed there. Add it to your cart (at this point there is no wood finish, just choose one of the custom veneers) and voila!

So, um, that loyal customer/prolific poster trade up discount?
That should take care of everyone who thinks the Axioms can't play in the big leagues because they cost so little... Not that I'm complaining; I understand why they cost that much!

Yup, just under 2 grand for custom wood veneered M80s. I don't know how others will think, but I think it's a fair price. Now, I haven't heard the M80s, but to be able to choose a finish and have your name on the back of your speakers is pretty special. Yes, the M80s will have more competition at that price point, but you have the ability to match your decor. I think I read in the newsletter that you can send Axiom a sample and they will try to match the color.

I think the prices are quite reasonable, with all the extras thrown in. I just wish I could afford them...

Mike, of course I was just kidding(you need to research the joke thread!); I've traveled in about 40 countries and saw a lot of stuff, even including some real trees(no Boston Cherries though). I enjoyed your earlier comment urging city-slickers to get out and see some real wood and wanted to give you an opening to take another shot.

I agree that's a very reasonable price for someone that is looking for custom finishes. Imho I think the vinyl in black looks great, for that matter I really don't care about the finish because they sound so good

There’s something wrong with those prices. I’d wait till Axiom gets the web sight completely updated before making any decisions. For example, you can have a Black Gloss, VS series, and you can also have a VS series. Two separate prices. Something is wrong.
I was planning to buy a second 600 in gloss black. Not so sure now. $2500 is pretty hard to swallow for a two channel system sub woofer.
A set of Rosewood M80’s in a piano finish though………I think they’ll look mighty fine. And sound might fine too.
