Also, as you state Axiom has "far,far better service" , what was you bad experience with Dahlquist service?
Did you have a bad experience with Totem? An advantage to Axiom is you can speak to the owners, but I haven't heard of any complaints on any discussion boards about Totem. I've never owned Dahlquist.
Marc at audioshop told me:
Dahlquist was a very good speaker in the 70's, they went under someone purchased them and made cheesy speakers and now jonic is trying to rebuild the former reputation.
That URL is just a company who services Dahlquist.
The URL for jonic is www.jonic.ca
Totem does have a lot of speakers that are much more expensive than Axiom but in regards to the Dreamcatcher compared to a similar Axiom set-up, I believe it presents an excellent value.
I know this was discussed awhile back when Axiom increased its prices. As many others have said, it's not Axiom who holds the clear cut decision for best value in Canadian speaker anymore. They are priced competitively with other very good CDN speaker companies like Energy, PSB, Mirage, Paradigm and now even Totem.
