Lampshade....yeah it would be nice to squeeze all one can get from the 60s, but almost impossible without posession! And posession means purchasing. I may change my mind on the 60s when I hear them.

I'll be upgrading from the Infinity Primus line of high end entry level speakers.

You also have me wrong. We are much alike, it is that the room is large with hardwoods and high ceilings. The 80s appear to be good without a sub as well. I don't like the loud rumble rumble sound, just clear SQ! I have been encouraged to go this route by getting the 80s. As was mentioned in another thread, save your pennies and get what you want or you will be back here in this thread whinning about upgrading again and they are right.

So, I am trying to avoid that. My wife can only take so much of this! I will be ordering very soon the XPA-5 that is for starters. I look forward in hearing the Axiom line of speakers.
