tcook,
Unfortunately if no one is in your area for auditioning the Axiom speakers, you may have no choice but to order a pair for the 30d trial. I believe someone posted here in the past month that they ordered some M22s and returned them to Axiom from a US address. If you can find the post you should get a good idea of return parcel costs.
The shipping cost after returning my trial M22s here in Canada was rather cheap. I managed to send the speakers back to Axiom, via regular parcel post with $400 insurance for $25 (all Cdn $ of course). It was a small price to pay to hear the Axiom sound.
