Well looks like Axiom may be waiting another 10 years to get some of my money - Got a deal on a pair of Paradigm Studio 60s and a Studio CC centre and they do rock

Congrats on the new speakers but the QS8s would still be a great addition to your HT. Maybe Axiom can get some of your money yet.

Well looks like Axiom may be waiting another 10 years to get some of my money - Got a deal on a pair of Paradigm Studio 60s and a Studio CC centre and they do rock I think we're pretty cool with Paradigm. They are good canadian speakers too. Paradigm speakers are often compared to Axioms. IMHO, they are a very good substitute. All of the Paradigms I've heard sound quite similar to Axiom speakers. Very neutral, clean, and accurate. I've even heard Paradigm's being described as 'bright', just as Axiom's sometimes are. I can certainly understand getting a good deal. When I was ready to buy my M80's, I went on a quest to listen to as many 'comparable' speakers as I could, just to be sure that I wanted to stick with Axiom. Paradigm was at the top of my list. The nearest dealer had a pair of Studio 100's set up. I did like them, but they were almost $1k more than the M80's. The dealer immediately knocked about $500 off to try to sell them. A deal, sure, but it not enough to shake me from my M80's. The sound quality was so similar (though there were differences: bass was a tiny bit more forceful on the 100's, highs were a tiny bit less harsh on the m80's) that it really came down to cosmetics, and I had to give the nod to Paradigm for that, but not for +$500. They were good speakers though. I have a lot of respect for Paradigm speakers.

Does this mean we're not going to burn him?
It is Friday, after all. How else are we going to get the weekend started?
