Thanks for all of your great comments... I agree I should hit some high end stores, I think tomorrow sounds great! Take a 2 or 3 hour lunch.... Yeah!
Heard the Ascends tonight - nice speakers, but I honestly think they just arent "large" enough for my setup. I could be dead wrong, but hey, its my money
I am still keeping them on the short list, however, because the bang for the buck is really quite good.
I'm really looking forward to hearing the Axioms - they have really intrigued me from the first second I saw them and read about them. And if they are as similar the the Paradigms as everyone is telling me, I cant see myself happier.
Thanks again, and I'll keep you all posted!
