Its been 7 years since I purchased my M3s. Got them for a lowly USD 220 then from the factory outlet and with Amie's help, got them to India.

Its been a sonically fulfiling experience all these years with no intention of letting up. They still sound amazing and hold their fort so well.

My daughter's birthday was a week ago. The request from the children was food, coke and loud dance music. These little M3s and my wharfedale sub belted out loud trance, pop, electronica and rock for 4 whole hours.

My neighbours from two floors above told me later that their floors were vibrating. And they loved the excitement.

7 years and still counting........no, I don't intend to upgrade. I have listened to many more bigger and better sounding speakers but the M3s will stay with me.

Just another satisfied Axiom customer.

Great story, aqua! The M3s are great little speakers at a steal of a price. Glad to hear you've gotten seven years of service out of 'em.

Shankar, good to hear from you again. Glad that you're enjoying your M3s, and yes, there's no need to get caught up in the "upgrade" game.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Sounds like one helluva party. I guess they're a little more lax about the kiddies doing the nose candy in India.

oh dear me. Capn_Pickard, let me clarify. "coke" here meant Coca-Cola. that's it. Just ordinary everyday saccharin filled coca-cola. No drugs. Anyway, I don't think I can buy or give cocaine to 3-6 yr old kids.

I should've noted this point before posting. Apologies to all but this was literally a children's party with dance music.

I've been had. That was a good one though. You had me imagining all you guys thinking of me as a drug peddler stuffing kids' noses with white powder.

Phew.....

Sorry, AquaShankar. I was definitely just making fun. I didn't mean to imply that you were corrupting the youth of India.

Glad the little ones enjoyed their party!

Capn: No apologies please. I had a good laugh just like everyone else.

And I've learnt a new slang too. "Nose Candy".
