blackstar, post some pics of your Factory Outlet speakers or at least let us know how they look.

Thanks

no bose...although if they were would i actually admit it? these are some kenwood speakers part of an HTIB i had way back when...they've sounded descent to me but then again so did the $20 earbuds i had before i got my Shures. and i will be posting pics. i put in new batteries in my camera specifically for that reason

Uhmmm...I think Bose is to Kenwood HTIB as Mercedes is to a Skoda.

I don't want to pump up your expectations too much. You will hear somewhat of an improvement with the Axioms .

I had some Polk bookshelves before the Axioms. My initial reaction was that they were not a revelation, but as I listened to more and more material, I realized that I really had been missing a good deal of the sound. I imagine a difference will be readily apparent if you're moving up from an HTIB, but if it doesn't blow you away right off, give it some time and throw a wide range of material at the Axioms.

You have the 80s, right? You really need to A/B the Polks with your Axioms. Then tell me if they are a revelation or not.

From a small Sony Satellite HTIB to my M60s, EP500 & QS8s was a revelation and I can even define it. Biggest thing for me was that I learned to appreciate a lot of music I normally would never have listened to. I call that a revelation of sorts.

man this is killing me purolator says it's on the truck for delivery since 830 this morning!

Excellent! I bought my system in 5 steps and all 5 were dealt within a day! Axiom+Puralor are a good combination!
