I too spent MONTHS deciding on a pair of speakers. I bought and paid for Energy C-3's, Axiom M22's, Energy Veritas 2.2's and then finally the Axiom M60's. Not to mention the dozens of speakers I demo'd in stores and other peoples homes. I'm happy to say that I'm done. I don't even have a desire to hunt down the next best thing. I'm very content with the M60's.
