Wow, as I was reading the posts, really tomes, that Mark and Jack did, I was wondering if I would be able to submit my retirement paperwork in time.
Interesting stuff. What stuns me is how Jack was able to remember ANY of that.
On a more serious note Mark, have you looked at the first post in the "Technical Questions" forum relative to auditioning Axioms? There is a set with M60s in Windham NH that are available. Don't know how close that is to you, but the whole thread lists auditionng opportunities and might be worth a look. Also, drop Amie a line and she might be able to hook you up with a close and willing Axiomite. (Hmmm, I hope that doesn't sound like it sounds
).
To get at your Cliff Notes version, yeah, the Axioms are almost to good to be true. There is no wood finish or space age design, but they certainly deliver audio in a big way. Couple the sound quality with the price and its a daunting combination. If you can find an audition within a 2-3 hour drive, they are worth a day trip. Take your cell phone so you can place an order on the way home.
