C'mon! With a name like "Kelly" I'm supposed to trust your Spanish? (But then, there is Anthony Quinn)

I think you're probably correct. But, here's the online dictionary which gave me the "pretty" result. Ya just can't trust some dictionaries.

After checking another couple of online dictionaries, one had no definitions for "guapo," and another had 3: "good looking," "handsome," and interestingly, "bouncer." I suspect the character in the movie, who was very funny, by the way, was supposed to be El "handsome," which he wasn't. Fun movie, though.

I'm pretty sure it means "handsome". I had some muy bonita female students who always came into my class at lunch and called me guapo. Teaching is a tough gig, let me tell you.

So that's why all my male high school teachers liked to stay seated behind their desks or standing behind podiums...

I got a better picture of myself. This is what you look like when you get all your speakers from yard sales and play them loud.

I am hoping the Axioms repair the damage.

Hi, Donald!

Yes, i am a very happy owner of Axiom M3's!
They sound much better than my old Klipsch mini-bookshelf speakers and better than my old studio headphones i usually used to compare 'how this should sound'. Too bad i am far away from my home (i live in Latvia - small country in east Europe in a coast of Baltic sea) to listnen them on a good amplifier, but i am sure that i will be even more pleased. I will definetly keep these little speakers!

Actually now i am so addicted to good sound that i am constantly monitoring Ebay for Accuphase, Burmester, Musical Fidelity or Mark Levinson amps... I now, am crazy! like we all are )))

I have had both and think this statement is right on the money::

In reply to:

Although I didn't do any serious comparisons between the two, I have lived with the M22's for awhile and noticed the difference with the M3's right away - better bass response (when comparing without a sub), and an overall warmer feeling.




The M3's are warmer or more laid back then the 22's. Is that better? Well that depends on what you prefer. It's like the 50's vs the 80's. Inspite of what a few have posted, the 50's will rock just as loud as the 80's but the 50's are once again warmer or laid back........whatever term you want to use.
