Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo M22ti vs Polk Audio LSi9

Here is Slownlo's thread from 2 years ago ...

oooooooo no Craig, did you have to

Obviously this guy has multiple personalities, at one time he appeared to be one of the gang, but must not have been able to pass initiation, and turned to the dark side..

I always get this morbid curiousity about people who deliberately post in order to offend - looking at their history is part of this curiousity. So, Randy, YES, I had to ...

This is the thread where he must have stopped taking his medication, and turned into the Troll that he is today

The only other time I saw the repeated use of "trained ear" was from the guy who has had appx. 10 different names on AVS. He uses either "trained ear" or "if you know what to listen for" when telling people what is a good or poor loudspeakers. His method is quite clear - if one disagrees with this guy's speaker choice, one does not have a trained ear, and therefore the opinion expressed by this poor individual is "tossed out".

IT would come as no surprise to discover slownlo is none other than Nightrain. They have quite similar posting patterns.

Or GeneticDrift, if you remeber that former Axiom Troll

This was before Genetic Drift went "anti" in regards to Axiom. There are a lot of key words from "lo" - "mob" stands out big time. In spring, 2004, Nightrain, as "Nicholas R" was posting about the SVS "mob".

Then there is the claim about owning the M-80's for 6 months, when he claimed he was buying them with "nothing to lose, as they have a 30 day return", but he then kept them for 6 months ? Doubtful.

It is usually the case that guys like this never actually ordered the product.

Lol craig I did the same exact thing. But fortunately I also came across some of Sushi's posts are starting reading his replies. WOW...I was impressed!!! Too bad he's no longer around.

I am in the process of auditioning tower speakers and after a couple of weeks I have determined that, with the exception of B&W 703's, I liked the sound of LSi15's. I can't comment on the LSi9's, as I was looking for floor standing speakers.

That being said, I am working out a plan with Capn Pickard to listen to his M60's.

It has been an eye (ear?) opening experience to listen to the same music tracks time and time again and have them sound so different - depending on the speaker and the receiver/pre-pro used. I never knew that speakers could sound that diverse.

I have determined one certainty - I do not like the sound of Def Tech powered towers with the music I prefer to listen to.

I am looking forward to hearing the M60's, if they sound anything close to the "B&W" sound that I seem to like, then I will be sold.

Cheers,
Rob
