Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners choosing axiom over others

Welcome ig123,

I've had the M80's & EP350 for about a month now and have no regrets whatsoever.

The main reason I purchased them were the reviews. A read a specific review/post (I think craigsub) where the M80's were A/B blind tested against Energy Veritas 2.4i costing $2000.00 to $3500.00 and the M80's were actually preferred over the Energy Veritas 2.4i

After about 3 months of researching (I never auditioned the M80's) I had to take the plunge for the money, and I am so very happy. I think the true test for me was even after a month I am still surprised by the sound.

Also, after finally getting the EP350 placement figured out (for my room) I love it! The first time I watch a blue-ray movie (I think it was transformers) I was blown away.

My 2 cents...

My final choices were the Axioms, SVS towers, Focal, and B&W. I liked the Focals and B&W (B&W my favorite) and I decided I would audition an internet direct brand as well. I have an SVS sub so I looked there first. I also looked here and was sold on the QS8's. So I decided to audition them for 30 days. I'm now on day 270. Think I'll keep them :-)

To be honest, I think I liked the B&W a little more. But not $1000+ more.

So in the end, it was the sound, the design (QS8's), and the value that sold me. Give them a try. You get a month to decide.

My experience and purchase decision was the same as dewd’s except SVS towers weren’t in the mix.

I felt the Axioms were the best value of the speakers I listened to when making my purchase.
