Another thing I wondered about 2x6's request. He prefers the M3; arguably, Axiom's least linear speaker. Likes the "sound" of tube amps, and uses speaker wire so thin as to add series impedance, which may emphasize the curve of the speaker making it even less linear.
Now, I don't have a problem with people preferring some colorations, over a strictly (I believe the term is Flockhart) flat response. Some high end ($$$) makers purposely tune their speakers for a unique sound to have them stand out against other brands. That's not Axiom's mission though.
