And I'll add to John's point, as running the REW software I found my internal sound card is not real accurate. The stuff (???) in my Onkyo desktop system is much better and sounds great.
Plus, I have a problem with speaker systems marketed as PC speakers costing as much as a decent system with CD/AM/FM/USB plus good little speakers. Perhaps the Axioms are worth it, but most are cheaply built by mouse and software companies, not speaker companies.
