Congrats on your new sound system. I'm going to have to get some M50's. I still think I have a hole in my mid bass guatar range with M22 set to small and EP350 crossed over at 80hz. I think changing my L/R from 2 sets of M22 to 1 set of M22 + M50 would make a big difference. I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

Thanks!
I can't tell you how wonderful it is not dealing with a sub. (which is my shortcoming, I realize, as the majority of the world evidently doesn't have the subwoofer stress)

Can't wait to get home from work and have another listen.

re: sub stress - all that said, I never tried an Axiom sub, so maybe given an Axiom sub, it would have been a different sort of experience. What I love with the all in one speakers is how seamlessly they roll from mid to low, high to low, etc. That's a big part of the attraction, I think. Seamlessness. And depth. sheesh, it's nearly holographic

Missing Mary Travers, though. RIP

Em, your joy over your new M50's is almost enough to make me want to try them out myself as the M50's are one of the few Axiom's I have not had a chance to hear yet.

For some reason I still prefer the mid-bass sound you get from a good two-way speaker over any three-way I have heard so far. The M40s do a wonderful job in that regard, but I do sometimes wish they could play lounder while remaining clean. The M50s apparently have a smoother response curve *and* play louder while keeping all the things I like about my M40s.

No wonder you're enjoying them wink

I cannot BEE-LEEV how much I love these speakers. They are alive! They dance they sing, they are like their own little band/orchestra. They put on a show. They MAKE MUSIC!!!!!!

I'm likin' 'em kinda close to the wall tho. But that's just me!
smile

am so pleased....
LOL, I guess I could go ahead and get rid of the boxes.
wink

Em, I am so happy you enjoy your M50s so much!! That's what this hobby is all about--finding things that make listening to music a passionate connection.

Go ahead and get rid of them boxes already! laugh
