OK, I am sure everyone has seen these comparisons a million times, but I haven’t truly seen a comparison of the following speakers on one post. I am about the pull the trigger on the Axioms, but I would love to hear everyone’s feedback. Also, if someone could offer some advice on cables that are good quality, performance, shielded, and low impedance, but are price sensitive. I am not interested in a radio shack home brew solution, but I can’t afford anything over 10-15% of what my system will cost. Thank you ahead of time for you feedback!
