Think I mentioned the main reason for changing was I did not expect Axiom to produce a wood series, of course about a week after ordering new speakers I was informed that Axiom was going to produce the wood series. But I still ended up keeping the Axioms, so I do not need to make a choice of which brand to sell.

Well,...ok guys.

I've studied all the pics and decided just what I'm gonna do.

I'm having the Wife gin up a complete set of very black and very opaque curtains for our listening room. Plus put all our lights up for sale on E-bay.

Thank you all; so very, very, much.







Rich.

Gentlepersons, I hope we will not have to dredge up the Axiom v. Brand XYZ unpleasantries that surface periodically. There is plenty of room in the world (and on these forums) for people who listen to lots of different speakers.

While it may be true that our discovery of and appreciation for Axiom products is what brought us here in the first place, that factor is CLEARLY not either what keeps us coming back or what makes this a special place.

I have great respect for many of the board regulars who have gone on to purchase other speaker brands, often retaining their Axioms in the process. I am priveleged to call many of them "friends". It would be a shame for these forums to lose the benefit of their humor, wisdom, and experience over intolerance.

Thank you for your consideration, and especially for your ongoing collegiality. I like this place because we can (generally) learn from each other in good harmony. We celebrate our common joys, rather than dwelling upon our usually inconsequential differences.

Now, Ray, enough about the interior decorating. I want to see pictures of the installation of the lift, the fully accessible bathroom and the braille-operated remote control. And did you lay in a supply of those Ray's Theatre bibs we were discussing?

Tom,

I scored big time on the bibs. I managed to find some with the super absorbent nap and and extra "drool overrun" attachment that connects to a 55 gallon drum. Came packaged with a bundle of "All Week" Depends. Great deal and I also don't need to move away from the TV for at least a week. I'm sure my bride will hose me down periodically.

Ray

Well, I was formulating a response, but by the time I finished reading Tom's articulate, and accurate plea, I didn't feel I could do any better. Bravo, Tom.

I don't ever see a need to explain as to why one bought a different brand of speakers. In my house there is Axiom, Hsu, Onix, Cerwin Vega, American Acoustics and this weekend a set of B&Ws

Although it was the Axiom speakers that brought me to this forum it's the people of the forum as the reason for staying.
