>>For instance when listening to vinyl, you will every little pop/click/hiss on the record where as most speakers you can hardly notice. But when you put on a nice recording it really nice to hear everything so clear. Is this experience sound familiar to you axiom owners?
One of the common posts we see from new Axiom owners is along the lines of "I stayed up all night playing my old CDs, listening to details I had never heard before".

...I would take a 20 pounds speaker over an 8 pounder anyday. Just seems better quality materials and parts were used...
I looked quickly but couldn't find what I was looking for. I remember coming across an article where someone took an amp/receiver apart and found a block of concrete in it. You always here heavier is better, not necessairly

Do you mean power meters? The is no dials.
When correcting someone, it always pays to double check your own grammar. Make sure it makes cents.

I keep my rectal aperture at ƒ/infinity except for one or two times a day when it may get to ƒ/2 or so.

(I like HK, I wanted XM)
Hey Scuffy! (You've earned a nickname already!)
Just an opinion regarding XM.....
I was a HUGE fan of XM several years ago....touting how great it was to friends and family, etc... But once they started their "number of channels" war with Sirius...dividing up their FCC-alotted bandwidth into smaller and smaller (and more and more compressed) chunks.... I've given up on them completely because of poor sound quality. XM doesn't even sound as good in my car as it used to, and with the Polk reference tuner on my Axioms, it sounded horrible. It was a big issue for me, as I felt I invested $$$ in equipment only to have them lower the quality from the the level that I signed up for...and invested in...
Anyway, just a thought that if you haven't heard XM on revealing speakers, you might be sorely disappointed!
Plus, if the XM/Sirius merger requires new tuners, you'll be out of luck anyway!
