Oh I'm well aware that any kind of music can have large dynamic range but I have only found this to be an issue during classical and orchestral. I'd like all music to have natural dynamic range rather than be compressed even if it means I have to buy an A1400.

I would argue however that above a couple of hundred watts, the majority of speakers out there start compressing. So everyone with M80s is "power-proofed" \:\) .

I don't understand why Axiom isn't exploiting all of the points you made. Maybe they don't have to in this market. I'm just surprised there isn't more evangelizing going on.
