If the Sutdio 100 sound similar to Axiom 60 and 80, is there a Paradigm speaker (or any other speaker I could easily audition) that sounds similar to the Axiom 40 or 50? Is the reason some people feel the 40 and 50 are "laid back" and even "dull" because they do not have a dedicated midrange driver, or is there more to it?

eduardo, I think the M40s sound "laid back" because that's the way Axiom describes them here

"The M40 adds deep bass extension to a classic two-way design. This slender, elegant tower effortlessly produces smooth, laid-back music for a pleasant listening experience."

The M50s description says "You'll be thrilled with the clean bass produced by the M50's twin aluminum woofers! Its titanium tweeter delivers silky and detailed highs with a smooth, pleasant midrange."

M60s - "If you'd like the startling definition and realism of the M80 tower in a more compact, 8-ohm version, check out the M60s. A three-way system with triple vortex porting, a dedicated 5 1/4-inch midrange driver, titanium tweeter, and dual aluminum woofers, the M60 effortlessly reproduces the full musical spectrum."

Each has been designed to have a different sound.

In reply to:

Again, if got directly from Canada, the Studio 100s can be had for approx 2000 a pair (I have not personally confirmed this, but this includes the duty money you get back at the border, etc.) That is not all that much difference compared to M80s.




OK, I realize this was a week ago and Ravi's probably made his choice now, but how is $2000 not very different from the US$1240 for a pair of M80s? That $760 difference is incidental? AND you don't have to drive from Ohio to Canada to save the money?

OK...
