I found two decent articles about THX, one being on
http://www.thx.com. and the other being
http://www.greengart.com/Columns/column036.htm. Now if we were talking computers I could talk with much more expertise than audio. But admittedly I am "refinding" audio again after a long hiatus after a fire destroyed my home several years ago. Audio components took a backseat to things like clothes and spoons and forks. So I am far behind what has been out there the last several years. Although my computer is near state of the art with RDRAM, RAID 0, 7200 rpm drives, 140mhz bus speed overclocked. I would like my audio to be comparable without spending a ton of money. That is why I am here, to ask advice from others who obviously know more than me about Axiom speakers, which I have heard nothing but raves about. And I feel by getting THX I should have a minimum decent starting point. And I agree with Avi Greengart on this quote, "You may not agree with parts of the THX philosophy, or you may simply consider the THX logo, certification, and processing a poor value for the added cost (all licensing programs add to the cost of the product). There are undoubtedly a lot of products out there that equal or exceed the quality of their THX-certified competitors. Still, when you use THX-certified speakers with THX-certified processors, a lot of the interaction guesswork has been taken care of for you, and that can have a significant impact on the quality of your system. If you have the budget, go for it."
