Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo The big showdown: M40 vs M50 vs M80 (VERY LONG)

Just thought I would bump this 'cause it's a good and informative thread...

Yes this was a good thread.
I agree. It actually explains my own general absenteeism over the past year. I forgot i posted it.

Too bad about the M40s. Got some for a friend of mine as a wedding gift during the sell off though. Pooled together 4 people and we also managed a decent receiver for him plus cables.
He was beaming.

I can sure echo everyone's points on their ear being retrained to be more critical of music quality. I too fell into the trap of pulling out old favorites right off the bat to try out my new M60ti and was disapppointed.

Then eventually I put in a cd with a great recording and thought ... holy cow, SO THIS IS WHAT EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT!!!

It's been good news bad news for me. Some of my old favorites just don't give me that same old feeling, but OTOH I've opened up a whole new world of good recorded music that I might of otherwise passed on.

I've personally been disappointed with the recording quality of most of our U2 collection.
