May Be Returning - 11/08/05 02:11 AM
Hello guys, long time no hear, well, at least from me anyways. lol
I wonder how many of my used to be buddies still remember just who in the heck I am. LOL
Seriously though, I've been without any Axioms for quite a little while now. I committed the cardinal sin and switched to another manufacture. Specifically speaking, Def Techs.
Now before I get dogged on, let me just say, I for one happen to really like Def Tech speakers, or I should say, I used to. However, things change, and I've come to the conclusion that my relationship with Def Tech is now over.
There are many reasons for this, but one of the biggest has to do with the fact that, well, they are not Audiophile speakers. Not in my opinion anyways. Now some may agrue that, but I can't imagin many that would.
Ok, down to the nitty gritty. Here's the deal guys. I'm thinking about returning back to Axioms, for all the same reason why all of you love your Axioms. Here's the problem though........
I feel, now guys, this is just my opinion speaking here, but part of the reason why I left Axioms to begin with is due to the fact that I've always felt their center channels were kind of their weak link, and I've owned them both. Does anybody else feel this way, or am I sailing in this boat all alone?
The other center channels that I've had, from Def Tech, to Paradigm, to you name it, they all beat the VP 100/150 in some way or another. Again, this is just my opinion. Axioms center channels just seem to lack something, and quite frankly I really can't put my finger on it. It's like it just lacks some umph ya know. All their other speakers, I can't say enough about. In a word, OUTSTANDING!!!!!! But I do feel they need to get off their tales and improve their center channel speakers.
Do any of you have any recommendations? Anybody try using one of their other speakers in place of the VP 100/150?
I appreciate the help/advice.
