On all the threads where axiom is mentioned over at avsforum, audioholics, hometheatershack, etc, it's always the same few people defending axiom: jakewash, sirquack, grunt, are always recommending axiom, but no one else.


I used to go to those other sites but got annoyed with them quickly. I find the forum here is great, informational, funny, friendly and addictive. It appears some great friendships have been made on this forum as well as people helping others out and generally caring when there's an issue audio or life related.

Find a owner to audition the speakers or order a set and they will prove themselves.


Say what you will about the others but avsforum is awesome. Sure, smaller boards have a much more personal feel to them but if you're after a wide variety of opinions and discussions on any and every av topic imaginable, then avs is where its at. If it wasn't for that site I would have never even heard of axiom!

You just want someone to bring you beer! ;\)

Just kidding.. I certainly appreciate the offer and did see you in the list of owners willing to audition. I'm in armstrong, about ten minutes north of vernon. I'm just gonna order them and audition them in my own room, the cost of return shipping would probably be less than the gas to get to merritt and back! and I'm hoping I won't want to return them anyway. \:\)

I know that I wasn't quoted in this response, but as one of the original members on AVS (back before the whole site loss and re-sign up for everyone) it was one of my favorite places. I just stay away from the areas where the nitwits post (just a few bad apples in some of the forum areas really spoils it). If you are still able to wade through the little bit of crap and find the good stuff over there, it IS a good resource. I just have better things to do with my life, so I just steer clear of those areas that like to bash products without any knowledge of them just because they aren't what is the current "flavor of the month" or what a particular member thinks is the best.

I think that is the general feeling of a lot of people, even people from the other forums you mention seem to share this feeling about AVS. It was bound to happen since they are the biggest A/V forum out there, and while it wasn't always that way, it has grown big enough that the "riff-raff" was bound to get in.

If someone started an M22 crew, JohnK would be the boss and I'd be his sidekick.

I would weep for the M50 posse, but I like my M80s more.
