Bluestater - I still think that something smells wrong with this review. Obviously, I can't prove you wrong, but I still have a strong gut feeling that all in not right. SVS is very clever, because they know that no one can prove their fans wrong, even when there may be reason to question these findings. SVS also has very deep pockets and directly influences the decisions of several websites. The only other thing I can suggest is that the Axiom and Hsu subwoofers in question were not properly set up per company guidelines.

The last time I felt this rotten was when Axiom got shafted against ecoustics advertiser SVS in that B. Mitchell ecoustics.com review. Guess which other company got shafted in the same review? Hsu Research. Go figure.
