Not all of us metal heads are pot smoking, half deaf, brain dead criminals
hey, speak for yourself...
wow, that was a "spring out of the seat" kinda post.. just what i needed to lift me thru the afternoon til i get off.. while i do concur that axioms are bright, compared to other speakers i have heard.. i also feel that is directly related to their quality. or, their ability to correctly reproduce what signals are being sent to them. i wouldnt go so far as to say they need to be "tweaked or improved".
and i think you are dead wrong on pop and metal not being "mastered at the same standards".. there not... i can pull out my old motley crue/ratt/poison/cinderella/etc discs, and they sound horrible compared to discs like dire straits/the police/rush/etc.. that were recorded in the same year, with the same avail technology.
so, is it variables of all, yes.. the last thing i wanna do is argue a point that we partly agree on, but i felt the need to mkae a counterpoint. we both dig our systems, so thats all good.. so, lets quit arguing about it and pass the water-bong..
