I noticed that Axiom has added new pictures to the "product" pages. I was looking at the M60 pictures, and notice that if you click on the "black grills" link on the light maple section, you see what looks like an M60, but if you look closely, you will see that the top port on the back of the right speaker is missing. It kinda looks like the back of an M40, but it has the bi-wirable connections at the bottom. The M40 and M50 product pages only show single connections.
So, what speaker are we really looking at in the picture?

Yep, it appears the web designer is pointing to the wrong picture, as the others seem to work....may cause a lost sale if someone wants two ports

Very interesting...
Great eye too...I wonder what speaker that is? There's no speaker in the current line up that is bi-wirable, and has a single port in the middle of the cabinet. None.
What speaker is that a picture of?

I'm guessing it's just a badly photoshopped pic. Notice that all of the speakers are in the exact same position. They just photoshop the textures on, and somebody accidentally erased the top port.

They are actually all different photos. Took alot of looking, but they are different. Pull up a new window and compare them side by side and you'll see a notch where the speakers meet on one photo that you dont see on the other. The lighting is slightly different also.
Usually when shooting something like that you will just mark the edges with something before you pick them up and replace them with another color.
As for the other colors those are different too, and from what I can tell were probably shot a different times.
Usually when dealing with drastically different colors, photoshop isnt the best way to go.
As for the missing port, someone screwed up either in retouching or manufacturing. Someone was probably supposed to retouch in a port hole on a mock-up speaker.

UNLESS it IS a new speaker.
