Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Anybody heard both the Axiom and the Infinity Beta

Wondering if somebody compared or heard both the Axiom M80, VP150, QS8 vs. Infinity Beta50, ES350, etc. I would be interested in having comments and pros/cons of each! FOR SURE, the service is far far better with Axiom though. (Have called Infinity to have infos and it's a nightmare)

I have heard the Intinitys - side by side at Circuit City with Polks. Polk RTi8s sounded much better - in the opinion of my wife (college music major, very good ear), every (several) CC salesmen (went there many times, talked to many people before pulling the trigger on a deal), and myself. I also own Axiom M22s. They are very good speakers (90-95% as good as the Rti8s for 1/2 the price) so I suspect the Axiom system you are considering would be much better than the Infinity system - to my ear. I specifically asked one CC salesman "How do you sell any of the Infinitys with the Polks sitting right there next to them for a lower price?" and he said that they just sound better to some people - so there is clearly room for individual taste.
