I learned to ignore all the bright, warm, harsh, mechanical, etc...talk Everyone is different, and interpreting what they are referring to is left up to your imagination. I was told don't ever go with Denon (mechanical) and Axiom (bright/harsh like klipsch) cominations, most of this crap is heard over at AVSforum, by biased individuals that probably have never heard Axioms, and are just speaking from hearsay. Funny how 3 people at Axiom recommended to me the Denon/Axiom combination, as well as many on this forum.
My 2 cents is that Axioms will make Elites, Yammy's, or yes the mechanical Denons (what a joke) sound splended, with no extra amp needed....
whew...need to take a breath
