Yes but the 3rd party measurements for this speaker are outstanding.

I think I have figured out how you can compare 2 sets of speakers in your home with very little risk/cost. You can order the Axiom M3 and the Aperion 4B or 5B and do a comparison. Both have 30 day trials and Aperion has free return shipping within the 30 day trial. To return the M3's I believe it would cost between $10-$20.

Here is a recent review of the Axiom M2 and Aperion 5B. The reviewer thought the M2 was the most netural and offered the best value. This review included each set of speakers used with a subwoofer. Without a sub you might find the M3's the most satisfying.
