Glad you didn't because you heard some later for comparison? Or happy you didn't because you're so in love with your Axiom's?


Keep in mind, this is just my opinion & I never auditioned the Song Towers \:\) I'm glad I didn't because of:

-The cost of the ST
-Read about "some" lack of bottom end on the ST
-Power handling capability of the M80's(I love it LOUD)
-2 mids & one tweeter vrs Axiom's dual 3 way combo
-I wanted a new sub (for the money I had)
-Craigsub A/B blind test with M80's against the $4,000.00 Energy Veradis 2.4 (M80's won)
-These forums...:)
-Customer service
-Reviews on the M80's
-and yes, in love with the M80's EP350 combo

I think I can go on, but thats just some of the reason I'm glad I didn't get the song towers. I still think (IMO) there's just no way the ST's 2 way design with those small woofers can crank like the M80's. With my RPA-2, these M80's will hurt my ears standing back 10 feet! and still no distortion.

Ok, I'm done...good god I just read my own post back and what a freakin fanboy I am! \:\) Sorry man, it's just the way I feel, couldn't help it.

Oh yea, I can't wait till I get my Marantz SR7002!!! soon...very soon...

Oh cool, now I'm really interested! You see the RPA-2 has been my amp of choice for the last few months after reading countless reviews on it. It's supposed to be a real 'quality over quantity' amp, but at 350 watts per channel I'm sure it's no slouch either!

Perhaps Bob is just a flake after all! ;\)

Yea Micah,

When I first connected my RPA-2 up, I was stunned! I posted a thread here somewhere about it, drooling all over myself.

Good luck to ya, enjoy that audition!
