The msrp on the 2900 is $999, but I've seen factory authorized refurbs for as low as $510. I'm very tempted to grab one at that price, but I'm afraid Roger may kill me if I do. Seriously.
I don't want to die.

Thank you Michael, I got brand new "A" stock, I just did not wanted to take the risk for used speakers for such a price, and also I could not wait 2+ weeks for "b" stock. They told me they will be here on Wednesday via Feddex Air. However, I have not gotten any shipment tracking confirmation email yet. See my PM...

That shipping e-mail means its official. Get ready to be checking the tracking number 10 or 15 times an hour....

I just hope that what happened to me, DOSEN'T Happen to You!!!
I got my tracking number, and started the track trek. All went well right up until the speakers got to my town.
They were logged onto the delivery vehicle at about 8:47 AM.
So I waited,
and waited,
In the window, looking at the road.
Here, on line, trying to pass the neverending hours.
On the front porch, listening for the truck.
Finally....
It took NINE HOURS to travel the six miles from the airport to my house!!!!
(it was worth it)

Skerdi, you'll certainly enjoy your wonderful new M60s. Just to clarify a point, the factory outlet speakers are also brand new, but supposedly have some slight cosmetic defect. Couldn't find one on my M22s.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Got my shipment email Monday.
Wednesday delivery, yahoo that's today.
Except Fedex tracking hasn't changed since speakers got to Barrie depot on Monday - so maybe not today.
But got the sub Monday (svs PB10-ISD) and stayed up till 03:00 playing music and a couple movie tracks. For a 10"er its got a lot of slam. The scene in Spiderman 2 where you can here the heavy footsteps of Doc.Oct's appendages coming up the apartment building (about 1:15 mark) was amazing at 95db. I couldn't believe how much the driver was moving.
Now I wait for the M3's., qs4's and vp100 to arrive.

Just got a call at work from my wife and the speakers arrived a few minutes ago just as she was walking out the door. She said 6 boxes arrived, yet I only ordered 5 speakers (2 mains, 1 centre and 2 surrounds). Apparently one of them is only something like 8"x4"x2". Anyone know what it could be? Is this typical for Axiom?
It's going to be a long day at work and another night of lots of tunes and little sleep.
