The "old" KEFs Cheeseroo is referring to are the 104/2s. I had recently acquired them and thought it would be a fun and interesting comparison. I agree with Cheeseroo's assessment except what Cheeseroo considered accuracy in the Axioms I thought was a bright more in your face presentation.
Would I trade the 104/2s for a pair of M60s? No, but I certainly thought the Axioms to be a very good speaker of exceptional value. I have no reservations recommending them to anyone auditioning in their price point.
Cheeseroo, I imagine it's time to subjectively compare the M60s to my trusty old Boston Acoustics A150s. (the aid of a sub for the A150s would be nice though). Oh, and of course a fine ale is always welcomed.

Cheers,

Dan
