J, welcome. All the speakers that you've listed are good, although they have somewhat different sound characters. There's nobody who's listened to all of them in exactly the same setting, with the same material and at the same volume level(and this is the only sort of comparison which would be reasonably accurate in deciding preferences). If you see from the list of Axiom owners that one is nearby, you might arrange to listen and at least get some idea of what Axiom offers, although this of course wouldn't involve a comparison with the others. My other thought would be to order the M3s and try them. If you weren't satisfied(highly unlikely)you could return them during the 30 day trial period.
