Hiya Mark. When you get as old as Jack and I you'll understand rambling. Hmmm, what were we talking abou...? Oh yeah. Chess is correct - it's all in the ears of the beholder and ends up being subjective.
I spent way too much time auditioning speakers before deciding on the M60/VP100/QS8 set. Most of what I auditioned were much more expensive. In the end, the M60s, at least to my ears, sounded exactly like the B&W 703s, which go for $3000+ per pair. spiffnme shares the same opinion I believe. Go give the B&Ws a listen and see what you think. I am totally satisifed with the Axioms and still grin when someone shows up at the house and reacts to them in such a positive manner.
