Just joined the forum group after reading posts for a couple of weeks. This past Friday, I received the first shipment of what will eventually be an awesome system! I have 2 M60's and VP150 and, based on recommendations here, will eventually add QSR8's and perhaps a HSU sub. Oh, and a desperately needed new receiver is also part of the plan. I am very fortunate to have a wife who somewhat 'understands' my desire to invest this level of $ into this new venture. To her, there was nothing wrong with my old setup (Kenwood Theater-In-A-Box). I think she has just grown weary of my ongoing references to a 'dream system'. I have promised her that this will be the LAST system I will ever ask for and I will not get bitten by the dreaded 'upgrade-itis' bug. Hopefully, I can keep that promise!
Anyway, back to my Axioms - the speakers sound as awesome as you all said they would! Even using a very low-end Kenwood 5.1 receiver (yikes!)...And, they look as good as they sound. Needless to say, I am very happy with this initial purchase.
I just wanted to commend all you audiophiles on this Board for your informative postings for newbie people like myself who rely on your advice in order to make wise decisions. Your views, opinions and experiences have certainly helped me to cut throught the 'clutter' and hype.
I do have a couple of low res pics I can offer up of my new Axioms (but have to figure out how to get them posted). Lastly, I see another fairly new person on here is a TN Vol fan. Small world....please don't hold that against us, it has been tough being a fan the last few years...
Take care - have a great day!
