Alas, no PMs from anybody. Not even Chess. The only time I ever got one was when someone wanted to pick up my black QS8s on the cheap.
And I suppose I erred with my assertion that this thread didn't belong here. What I really meant was: Even if there are audible differences between high priced stuff and cheap stuff, it is largely irrelevant for most members on this board. The price point of the Axioms generally attracts your average Joes and not dedicated audiophiles.
For example, I spent roughly $2K on Axioms and $1k on a receiver and DVD player. I am completely satisfied with the quality of my system. Other than adding a better sub, or a 2 channel amp to run my mains, I am probably done. I could run out and pay cash for 5 of those Halo JC1s and the C2 processor, but I think I'd rather have a pool and a big screen instead. Just priorities, I guess.
