I would welcome the opportunity to hear M22's, M60's, M80's or a complete surround sound system.

This would be most appreciated.

Kubo, welcome. If you look at the list in the audition thread above, you'll see several possibilities in BC. The usual procedure is to try to make contact by way of a PM, since they may not see your post. If that doesn't work you might contact Axiom directly for assistance in making arrangements for an audition.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Wouldn't you have to convince yourself first?

I'm already convinced, but want to make a trip to Dwight in person. I've auditioned some great speakers over the last few weeks, including some brutal ones. None, it seems, can touch Axioms value/performance...Monitor Aud comes the closest in my opinion. For peace of mind, people should still see what else is out there, even if they're sure they'll still buy the Axioms. Axiom makes a quality product and would likely welcome any comparisons.

I still go out and check the latest and greatest from the low end compaies or low end lines, Polk, Energy, Paradigm, Focal, etc and they still don't compare to the M80s at the same price range.

Jay, I'm curious as to whether you've heard JBL ES80/90s. These were a huge dissappointment to me, much more so than the Energys. Honestly, I couldn't listen to the JBLs, just brutal (heard them in 3 different stores same result).

I heard the ES80's at J&R Music. I thought they sounded clearer than the Polk I heard in that price range. (Think it was the
RT1 A5) The Polk had better bottom but sounded dull. The JBL's had no bottom and the highs were not smooth but it still sounded clearer than the Polk. The ES80's were $299 each and the ES90 in black ONLY was also $299. Can't imagine a $600 pair of speakers coming anywhere near even what the M60's should be.
