If this is not a joke (not knocking you Daphoid, but I'm a bit shocked and wonder if you are pulling our 'collective' leg) then I'm speechless. Comparing Axiom and Bose speakers is like comparing crisp, juice Granny Smith Apples to those tiny pastey things the local grocer tries to convince you are apples. Both are fruit and will take up space in your stomach, but your enjoyment of consumption is VERY diffrent.
Do your friends have any 'logic' behind what they say or are they just goosestepping and parroting along with bose's market-speak?
Also, I have friends who think I throw money away on my audio and computer equipment, but that is a difference in priority, not the quality of what I buy. They think spending that much money on audio eq is a waste of money period, axiom or otherwise.
