I was trying to react more to the poor wording of his argument, not to mention the title still doesn't make sense to me. It seems to suggest that even he doesn't think Klipsch is the best, but why would you pick Axiom over something BETTER than that(?)
did anyone else have trouble understanding what exactly he was trying to say?

I'll down a couple more Busch Lights and re-read this thread. Maybe then I will figure it out. Drive up here Randy and we'll make it a party.

I think he needs to goto the "Zoolander School for Kids That Don't Read So Good".

I picked up a huge Klipsch KLF C7 center channel speaker with twin 8" drivers and a large horn loaded tweeter. I can tell you without hesitation that it did not produce great sound quality.
My modified Meraks (Axiom made) with twin 6.5" drivers upgraded to Axiom aluminum units used in the M3s, etc., and a 3/4" Axiom Ti tweeter sounded much better. My new VP150 simply blows the huge Klipsch away.
Just thought I'd share from personal experience.
Nevertheless, a big and warm Axiom forum welcome to you Chris2112. Please leave any differing opinions at the door.

I had some Klipsch mains and a recent model center, which i can't remember that one. The mains were near $1,000 models and I have to agree with 2x6spds, I just didn't ever like them that much.

I used to have some KLF 20s, and was looking at the C7 as the matching center channel. Unfortunately there was no way I was gonna accomodate that 40lb behemoth anywhere. The Klipsch's didn't agree with my ears after long listening sessions. They were very fun though. Talk about being able to reach ear bleeding levels with ease.

I would own a set of Klipsch's in a NY minute if they were a set of Corner Horns. I have always love those darn things.

I like their Cinema 10 series for HT. Great bang for the buck but sounds kind of harsh for music.
Was gonna reccommend their surround speakers to a buddy that has some Totem bookshelves for 2ch TV, but they are pretty big for his condo. Kind of bulky.
