Is it possible to like both?? Or are most people, ie. 90%+ on either side of the extreme?? Most likely, I'll be doing ~95%HT ~5% music...would laid back vs. detailed/forward make much of a difference?? Please advise.

If you like a more laid back, warm sound to your speakers, then you would likely prefer the Rockets.

If you like a more forward, clear and detailed sound, then you would likely prefer the Axioms. You are on the Axiom board, so most of us prefer the forward, detailed and clear sound of the Axioms.

Obviously, the only way for you to know which you like better would be to listen to both and make your own decision. There is certainly no right or wrong answer in this debate, just what people prefer.
