The last time I looked the 11's were the same price as the M80s about $1300, the 100s were $2400. If you can get the 100s for $2000 I would get them, but don't forget you can get the M80's from the Factory outlet for a mere $1300, this is where the price/performance really hits home.

I think you meant $1200 via the outlet, and yes, a great deal at that price.

Hey Jay, that's the problem, I know $2G is a great price, its adding the centre and surrounds too....BTW have you seen the size of Paradigms centre channel, like a tower on it's side---between 60-70 lbs, depending Monitor or Studio. Anyway, pricewise, I know Axioms are hard to beat....I've kinda been dragging my feet a little regarding speakers thinking maybe Axiom might throw in a new promo going into '09!!!

I heard bigwill's MA's. My assessment was consistent with his; they sounded somewhat better than the M60's (a bit tighter and smoother at high volumes, perhaps?). However, they cost fully twice as much at that time.

I think Axiom speakers remain a great value.

Axiom doesn’t really operate that way. Since they make their own speakers their costs are more constant and can offer a consistently low MSRP and don’t need to list a really high MSRP and then constantly run sales on preorders to lock in a set price from their manufactures in order to get a good price to their customers. If they do offer something it won’t be huge maybe something like this:

Grunt, I saw that $100/500 deal a couple of weeks ago. I wonder if they will do something like that again? this would be a good one...limited time upgrade to wood veneer N/C. Well, here's hoping anyways.

They did run a real wood veneer upgrade for some time a while back I just can’t remember the details. So something along those lines is a possibility.

I believe the list price in Canada on MA RS8's is around $2G. A hifi in Toronto has 'B' stock (show demos) for $850 rosenut, up to $1200-1300 for walnut ect (Cdn $). For the record, I haven't seen them yet, and they are demos. Even so, matching surrounds in the Monitor silver line run near $1000.00 Cn which are probably, at best, as good as but not better than QS8s from what I have read. Centre Channel is rather $$ too. Now if this dealer had all of these in 'B' stock, the price would probably be comparable to Axioms.

No, I meant $1300, remember he/we is/are in Canada, we get to pay more for something made up here! Lucky us.
