Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo Stereo upgrade.

I will bet you will find the M80's more to your liking and remember dropping from the huge 10" drivers in the JBL's to twin 6.5's you will notice a huge difference in lower end sound. It won't be nearly as boomy but tight and clean sounding. Your JBL's more or less are running 2 10" subwoofer in them, just with out the extra power amp from a true sub. Having said that you will also notice a more clean and detailed sound in the all the ranges as I haven't found a JBL speaker yet that sounds as clean as the Axiom's. JBL's are not bad just not as clean/detailed.

I would usually recommend an audition but it will be tough to find Axioms to audition before you buy and the return shipping would be pricey.

Good luck in your search.
