Welcome to the forum sportsfreak.

Energy, Axiom and a few other speaker brands have similar design philosphies known as "the great Canadian sound". However you will find many QS8 owners using them with all sorts of different manufacturers. For instance the person that does all the official Blu-ray reviews on the AVS forum uses the QS8's as part of his reference system.
