Aw, man... what's wrong with the 50s?
Ken, Ken... you've been around long enough to know the Axiom pecking order:
M2s - I'm a poor student or I have a mortgage and family that I care about and actually purchase food for.
M3s - They're only $20CDN more than the M2s, but... but... that mysterious 6.5" woofer - that can't be good, the M22s use 5.25"s, those must be better. Yes, let he who hath understanding reckon the Number of the Beast, for it is a human Number, it's Number is six-point-five.
M22s - the flagship bookshelf. It's the biggest I can buy, this is
the Axiom bookshelf, baby. Well, until they make a bigger one, then I'll get that.
M40s - the tower version of the M3 - evil, only taller.
M50s - like an gangly siamese twin M3 in tower form!
M60s - yeah, baby... I want the coolest tower you guys have... big, man, BIG... what? The M80s are 4 ohm? Lets see, 4 / 3.1415 x 2 channels ^ 42 to the power of current... carry the one... oh hell, gimme this 8 ohm sucker.
M80s - Fear and loathing in Dwight, ON.
VP100 - I have no joke here.
VP150 - Centre, man... there is a fire in my soul that can only be quenched by more centre. Fire this puppy up with a pair of M2s and...
invent 3 channel mono?!?
QS4s - surround sound... yeah, hey, waitaminute... 4.5" woofers? Nothing else in the product line uses a 4.5" woofer - what did these do wrong? Or are they just so special they get a woofer all to themselves? Or is it short-bus special? Aww, hell...
QS8s - yeah, that's the shizznit... a 5.25" woofer, those are common among the other speakers in the line. So the power handling is matched only by the M80s? I'm all about overkill... and that sweet, sweet 5.25" woofer.
EP Series - this one's mathematical:
*square footage of room* x *current bank balance* / (*length of wedding tackle in inches* x 425) =
*rough estimate of EP #'d sub to buy*
Single guys - multiply by 2. Single, ugly guys multiply by 3.
