I have never had the pleasure of listening to any of the Axiom AX series speakers. However, I wouldn't discount the sound quality of all 1980s vintage speakers.
I have a pair of Dahlquist DQM 905s and a pair of their flagship DQM909s in 2 channel systems. I have owned Axiom M100s, M50s, M22s, M3s and M2s. The Dahlquists do not suffer from the comparison with the great Axiom speakers.
The Dahlquists have all Vifa driver/tweeters. They were designed by the great Carl Marchisotto (now see NOLA speakers).
Ian designed the AX series speakers. I suspect they sound great as well.
Vintage speakers, suspend judgment until you've heard them.
