Hello all,
I just can't buy before I hear. Anyone in Calgary with some M22's I might be able to listen to? (or any Axiom's I could hear?)

You might want to check the audition thread at the top of this section, page 1 has a list of people that will audition. Also, you can send a PM to Amie at Axiom as sometimes she has more people than the list represents.

Weaker, you can always buy and return for refund (except for return shipping) as an option. I first bought the M22s and returned them for $24 with insurance through Canpost. It was worth the cash to spend shipping them back to hear them first. I now own the M60s, among others.

I remember the feeling, my oldest son was born on the Thursday before the Saturday we were to have the carpet put in the basement. The labor was long, 36hrs, and I went to work the Friday night and then came home at 2AM Saturday morning and painted the basement. I finished a few hours before the carpet guys showed up. When it was all done I felt so relaxed, what a hectic week that was.

36 hours of labour to get the carpet installed? You got ripped off.

Yes we did, 36hrs just to get a 'C' section. My second son was a planned 'C' section and we were in and out of the operating room in less than an 2hrs.
On the other hand, the carpet guys were great, 13 stairs 2 landings and a 12X16' section in 3hrs. I was finally able to go to bed after a little over 36hrs awake for the second time that week.

This doesn't involve a seam ripper and carpet kicker, does it?  Bren R.

Just to get this thread back on track, I hosted auditions for a good portion of Saturday and I hope Weakerspeaker, Lorenzo and Adanac all had a good time, I enjoyed meeting all of you and I now have a face to go with the name.  Weakerspeaker I would definitely like to check out your HT when you get it done and post some pics here, it sounded very impressive.
