Just for my edification, what kind of sound am I hoping to achieve? I know that may sound simplistic, but you here all the acroymns floating around, and maybe it's just what each listner prefers to hear on their own system.

Axioms, by their own postings, say their speakers are neutral and linear. Should I buy a amp or A/V receiver that's neutral too? And if you buy "bright" or "cool" speakers, is a "warm" amp the solution to bring you back to neutral?(or vise versa)

I know this is all subjective to each and everyones tastes, but I assume when professionals review components, they must have something in mind. What determines a good quality speaker or component as far as tone?
