I just got my axioms and they are awesome. They are improving by the hour. My wife was a tad disappointed in the begining, mainly because her reference is Martin Logan. I had to some tweaking with the receiver and placement and they sound much better.
Anyway, I've realized that I cannot place them on the floor. They sound way better at a height partly because there is a huge center table in between the speakers and the couch. They are sitting on bar stools now. I am looking to buy some stands and went and bought 31" stands from Circuit City. They are very unstable. I spoke with Axiom folks and they say I should not go more than 24" height. I also think the taller the stand, the more unstable it becomes. Unfortunately, I will also need a stand with a relatively small foot print. Any ideas on such stands? Are there any I can pour sand into to increase weight? Once I am done, I will post the picture of my peculiar living room setup. I am sure it is acoustically atrocious...
