and i had to go look for it im sold on the m40's do you guys think my panny xr50 will do a good job with these speakers? my buddy sold his 2500 dollar tube amp for a xr10 and loved the xr10. so i think i should be good... hopefully everything will work out. anyone know anything about the ce775? will modding it make a big difference in sound?

That comparo could be a goodie at that-wonder if it may be on the Spot or AVS? I haven't caught them in the last few days so could have missed it.
I'll have to admit to being a little nervous getting the M50s without having heard them, I bought the M3s the same way, but in those days the M3 was the absolute darling of the Axiom line with a dozen or so "professional" reviews going on and raving about them almost to the point of being a turn-off. The worst comment I read about them was one writter found them to be a bit "bright". The consumer reviews were just as glowing. With such unanimous support, how could someone be afraid to make a purchase?(Plus they were only $275USD in those days) It was a real no-brainer. If the M50s sound "almost" as good as the M3s I'll be happy, if they sound better...

Just to be safe, give Axiom a call -- "I have M3s, I really like them, moved into a bigger room etc...". I'm pretty sure they'll say "50s" but never hurts to get another opinion.

There is at least one dealer out out in the west end of Toronto -- don't remember the name but will try to find it. I haven't been out there (heck, I probably own as many different Axiom products as the dealer ) so don't know how much room they have on prices.
