Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo The Axiom sound ...

I'm curious what it's the MOST like in owners opinions.

i.e. - do the Axiom speakers sound most like Infinity's , Polk's , B&W's , Paradigm's etc etc.

What's your opinions ?

I realize they sound most like Axioms ... (for those of you that might say so ... ) I'm considereing trying a pair of M22ti's for my bedroom . Always curious and looking to hear and own anything new

I have no where to hear these in my area so opinions are greatly appreciated , just so I have an idea what to expect.

TIA

Not sre about comparing M-22's but I have done a side by side test between Axiom M60's and Paradigm Reference 11's. There was no distinguishable difference in sound.

This short reply by Alan Loftt is a bit of an answer to your question.

So thus far the concensus is that they sound most like the Paradigm's ?

That's a good thing in my book as I like the Paradigm sound

Would the M22's possibly be more on par with the 40's ?

Thanks

Anyone else like to chime in ... other opinions on the Axiom sound and what I can expect ?

I think the M60ti sounds very, very similar to the B&W 703 tower. The Energy Veritas 2.2 bookshelf has a similar sound as well, though obviously with less bass.

I think I'm safe in adding that they sound considerably different than Bose!

Petre,

I owned Paradigm Monitor 9s before I got my Axiom M22s. Even though they couldn't compete in the bass area, the M22s absolutely blew the Paradigms out of the water in every other area. I was able to directly compare them in my living room since I sold the Paradigms after the M22s arrived.

As has been mentioned before, to compare Paradigm and Axiom, you have to use the Studio series -- but you've got to pay a lot more for the Paradigms.

i'd agree with everyone else so far, they are very comparable to the paradigm studio reference series and the B & W 700 series.

THANKS! for all the responses guys!

I ordered the M22 Ti's in black today . I'm sure they'll make a great addition to my bedroom system .

Will let you all know my impressions once I've got them.
