I currently have a pair of JBL Nothridge E80 and thinking about upgrading to the Axiom M60ti. Anyone out there has any experience or done side by side test on these speakers. Are the M60 that much better than JBL E80 to justify the cost of upgrading. I'm primarily concern with stereo/music listening. Appreciate any input.

Not sure if this will help, but just based on price, I'm guessing the M60ti will run circles around the JBL's.

Axiom is know as being one of the bang-for-your-buck speaker companies. Their $800 ($760 from the outlet) M60's are bargains. I own them, and have put them up against numerous prestigious brands costing lots more, and the M60's have out performed them all.

I'm talking B&W 700 series towers costing $2000+.

I know cost doesn't always equally translate to quality, but considering that Axiom is already on the far end of the cost/quality ratio, it's a pretty safe bet that something that costs significantly less them them, isn't going to hold up.

Having said all of that...you really have to hear them for yourself to decide. Check this thread for members in your area that are willing to audition theirs for you. If you don't see someone on the list, post a message requesting a demo.

Good luck.

If the E80 are anything like the old ND310 then yes.

I upgraded to M80's from JBL ND310. (wow)
