Well I got the yammie today. Took the HK to the shop. HK was really slow at returning my e-mails so I figured I'd just get it fixed and keep the unit I prefer-and give the other away as a gift. I move next week, and I'm going to have to wait to get the Axioms until I sell my current home (paying three mortgages doesn't allow for droping big bucks on speakers). It was supposed to be sold already but the buyer backed out. Sigh...
