Monopole speakers are great if you have an ideally shaped room and only one person listening. I'd like to find out where that writer would put monopole speakers in my room with the TV in the corner and couches at 45 degrees to each other (picture posted in HT forum earlier this week).

It's be interesting to be able to compare dipole, bipole, and di/bi speakers. I know some manufacturers offer a switch on the speakers, but I decided to trust the reviews and go with the Axioms. I'll find out whether I like them next week.
