I think pretty much everyone here likes B&W speakers, particularly the 800 line. The Axiom sound seems to be quite similar. I have not had a chance to here the 700 series B&Ws but those who have seem to find them a bit muffled by comparison.

I had a chance to hear B&W Nautilus speakers tonight -- apparently the first pair brought into Canada, a number of years ago. They were as nice as you might expect -- very open and natural. I'm going to try to haul the M60s up there one night for an A/B test, but it probably won't be for a while.
