Will, it's too terrible of a word to be used here, but since you're new you need to know. It's muh... muh...mm...metallic!

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Hahaha, is 'tinny' also out of your vocabulary range because of its inherent evil?

I found this description of a silk-dome tweeter found on the Joseph Audio RM7si to be particularly humorous:
"Silk dome tweeter - These latest generation silk/fabric dome tweeters offer sweet smooth extended highs, without any of the "oil-can" resonances found in metal domes. The result is a natural sounding treble range that reveals all the detail and beauty of the music."

I've been coming here for a short while, and probably discovered Axiom speakers either through the Home Theater Forum or the Home Theater Spot.
I plan to order some M60's, QS8's, and a VP150 very soon. I have to wait though, since my new house is still being built and I don't close until next month. I'll be upgrading from Energy Take 5's, which are fine speakers, but I'm ready for something that is more mighty.
Oh yeah, I also have an SVS 20-39 PC, which I also quite enjoy.
Anyway, thanks to everyone for all the great info!

I found this forum after reading a review of the M22 by John Potis at SoundStage.com. I was so impressed with that review that I had to check out Axiom.com and thats when I found the message board. And boy, am I glad I did. It's one of the few places where folks are allowed to voice thier opinions...good, bad or other wise. I think thats what makes this board such a strong one.
BTW, I ended up keeping my M22s even though I own KEF and Magnepan speakers. The M22s were so good I just couldn't bring myself to send them back after an in home audition and the legendary Axiom customer service is world class.
I live the life I love and I love the life I live.

I really can't remember how I found this site. It may have been recommended by Alasdair (sp?) over at Audioquest in one of our emails, but once I found it, and read all the great reviews, I knew I had to get some.I like the people here, and the customer service is absolutely the best I have ever seen. Truely top notch.

I didn't find this forum until after I bought my M22s. I think my friend (and member) kcarlile pointed it out to me.
It's a good thing I discovered it late, too. Som'a yaz woulda convinced me to go overboard and buy the M60s instead.

I've been doing research on my next speaker upgrade and came across the Home Theater Forum. Read many positive comments there about Axiom speakers and this board, so that's how I found it.
