Listened to the B&W's while still debating Axiom. I like the B&W's better. Twice A$ good? Ahh, not to me. Do I love Sonus Faber's @ $12G a pair---every little thing about them, but I need to keep my car.
There are freight trains worth of speakers that are better in every way than Axioms. But I found nothing that made me really want them more until I cracked into 3G a pair territory. And I could have spent 4,000 bucks and still ended up with vinyl.
Or how about carbon fiber Hansens @ $240k. Bet they sound nicer than they look.
