Hey Mark, funny stuff. In reality, I've only done 5-6 demos at the house since finding Axiom. \:\)

I feel confident in saying that the very large majority of us would give a demo just because we believe in the product and it's a nice way to spend an hour.


Very true, and it seems the most time I get to play with my system is when I have an audition. It's funny because everyone feels as though they're imposing and say they'll only take 15 minutes. I laugh, say not to worry about it and tell them to expect to be here at 2 hours. They never believe me but the time flies by going through all the music and movie clips.

I had a good run of 5-6 auditions a year or so ago but none since then. Come one people, I need some time to play with my system, send me a pm

That is the main reason I do auditions, I really get to appreciate the system to it's fullest while doing the auditions, the second is to meet other people interested in the hobby.

I've never done one. I think I've only had 2 requests, and both backed out. Or at least never showed up. I have talked a number of people into buying Axioms, but they were pretty much all sound unheard.

If I drop by and drool over your HG cherry speakers does that count?

I'd gladly audition without compensation as well as I always enjoy the heck out of the experience. Sounds like my experiences thus far with the "axiom bucks" have been an anomaly, good to hear. \:\)

(I'm currently debating whether my next purchase is going to be a real wood set of M3s for my loft or a set of Audiobytes for the computer... choices!)

Wear a bib and your welcome to come over \:\)

I actually had one guy come and he started to put his disks and drink on my speakers (1st set of Boston Cherry) while we were setting up play order of the audition. He was a nice guy but almost never made it to becoming an Axiom owner as I'm very protective of my speakers. Especially now with the HG Cherry which everyone loves to touch and leave finger marks on.

Look, listen, play, take the remote, have fun, but it surprises me how many people have wanted to use them as drink holders.

Wow, you've had bad guests! I've never had anyone try that move. I'm sure my evil eye would scare them away before the drink got within 6" of the speakers! \:\)
