I gave the $2500 Polks a listen at Fry's the other day. Don't know which model, but they were big towers w/ integrated subs. They're good (and they look fantastic).

I don't think any of us are under the impression that Axioms are the ONLY good speakers out there.

That guy obviously has an anti-Axiom agenda. His prominent mention of the Vifa tweeter is curious. Aren't there some other speakers, perhaps even direct rivals of Axiom, that use that tweeter.
