Interestingly, we had an Axiom dealer in Israel in the 1990s - maybe one of them will turn up here! Other than that, we do ship to Israel but we don't have anyone on the audition list from there at this time.

A dealer? Really? Can you tell me the name? Maybe they know of where there are some speakers I can listen to. Many thanks!

It counts by me! Why do you go? Any reason is a good one! I moved here from Pennslyvania 18 years ago.

Thanks for the welcome. I'm ready to by some speakers but would sure like to hear some first.

I'm curious, are there any speaker shops where you live? What kinds of speakers have you listened to in the past?

I work for a semiconductor company and we have several offices in Israel. I mostly visit our Yokneam offices and stay in Haifa.
I've been to Jerusalem twice but mostly for the tourist route w/ coworkers. On my next visit I'd like to try the catacombs, maybe even Elat. Best meal has been at Pasha's in East Jerusalem. Now I understand why my Israeli friends complain that they can't find good pita bread in the US.

Lee, another welcome to you. I see that you work as a tour guide and that reminds me of the tour I had about ten years ago that included Israel(the Israeli guide we had used the nickname "Nimrod"). Don't know anything about the Israeli audio scene, but if you get yourself some Axioms you might be the very first!(or maybe not, since there was previously a dealer there). I and probably the majority of owners bought on the basis of excellent reports without actually hearing first, and our confidence has been rewarded.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.
