My Axioms are not hard to place for good sound, if i had enough room to move them around (the lost context).
Thanks to Alan's comments in the latest Audiofile Newsletter, one should be able to understand just how rumours or impressions about brands of any equipment get started and potentially stick for life.
To quote Alan EXACTLY:
"Readers sometimes repeat what I've said without mentioning the context in which I made the remarks."

The quote was worth mentioning. Take 3rd hand information about reviews of audio equipment that has been passed around too many times such that the underlying meaning has been lost.
Kudos for putting that out there Alan.

I am in agreement with you here.

I agree completely . Just because I call you an idiot for sticking your finger in a live lightsocket doesn't mean you are in idiot in general.

Would I be an idiot if I did it more than once?

Peter,

I might have, but I don't believe you have, not for a minute.
