Chesseroo:
My physical symptoms were very much the same as yours...
"I'm typically confronted by a protracted and awkward silence and that befuddled, tilted-head look that your dog gives you when you change his food from Alpo to Purina."
More like "Have you been smokin' those funny cigarettes again???"
I'm a real newbie (been 10+ years since I did any shoppin' for home audio but I'm learnin' folks!) so let me ask a question...do people like that ever review Axioms? I'd have to think from a price point alone somebody like that would have a bad first impression...not "high" fi enough...
Take care all.
