Thanks for the great replies! By warmth I mean to say decent low-midrange response. If I'm confusing terms I appologize. In some pieces of music, there's just not enough oomph in the low end of the mid-range to really satisfy. I know it's there, as I can listen to a particular CD via a nice set of headphones or through (heaven forbid) my old Sony speakers and hear midrange "warmth" that the Energy's just don't have in that specific range.
For instance, a Yo Yo Ma's solo cello SACD I like has some amazing runs up and down the range of his cello, while the highs and mids and deep lows sound great (I'm sure they'll sound even better with some Axiom's
), there is definately some mid-range lacking somewhere around the 100-200hz range that neither the little 3.5" Take 5 woofers (for lack of a better term), nor my 10" sub can handle effectively. It is precisely that weakness that I am trying to fix in my quest for "the next level" of speakers.
