OK, now that I have your attention, as some of you may know, I am still building my home theater, so my Axioms have been sitting idle a lot, pushed into a corner of our home office.
Recently, we moved the M60s, VP150, and my SVS our into the living room. We had the QS8's out for a little bit too, but they just sit on a shelf for now since they are not going to be in the living room much longer (as the HT is getting closer to completion).
Tonight, we had some friends over. Actually, it was the guy that reminded me what a movie at home should sound like about 9 months ago when I stopped over and his kids were watching Toy Story 2. He has a Klipsch set up in his living room, and it was the point that I said to my wife that I would have a home theater again.
So anyway, back to tonight. So he wants to hear these speakers, these Axiom speakers.
I popped in a CD (what, a CD? I thought I bought these for a home theater and not for music audio), and just pressed play...
All I can say is that I know EXACTLY why I bought these speakers!!!!
I just am amazed at the quality of sound that they produce.
I am sure that at some point I will take them for granted, but for now, since I don't get to use them much, I have learned to really appreciate the quality of sound that they produce and can NOT wait to be able to put them in their new home in my home theater.

Good post. I was expecting the usual "I just bought two for a nice stereo system, now I have 5 (7, 9, 23, whatever) and am STILL thinking about upgrading

Hey Nick, nice post, and I can totally relate, these Ax's really do sound wonderful. I've actually talked 2 people at my work into purchasing some Axioms over the last few weeks, I wonder if they have a referral program Anyway, glad to see your moving along on your HT project. I've been spending the last few days hooking up all the outlets and switches, I'm crossing my fingers that it will all work once I hook everything up to the main fuse panel Actually it was kinda fun doing all the electrical in my basement. The mudder/taper/finisher guy is starting over spring break, can't wait... Anyway, talk at ya later.

They DO have a referral program... Make sure your coworkers mention your name when they order.

After 7 months, I too am still impressed every time I listen to em. What great speakers! I had a friend over the other day whom I hadn't seen in months. He had not seen my remodeled room with all the speakers set up. After being duly impressed with the look, the sound knocked him out.The wow factor is always nice.

referral program? do you get a new ep-500? if so that'd be pretty neat 'cause i've about convinced my dad to buy some after he heard the setup i've got at my house! i suppose i could settle for another pair of QS-8s for a nice 7.1
Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?

What benefits will I enjoy for referring people to Axiom, a free EP600 ?

You'd have to get 20 people to buy an EP600 and credit the sale to your name before you made enough commission to get one for yourself.
Commission is 5% of the purchase price.

I can vouch for the program. I've received 2 checks already. Spread the word!

What if a few people have already ordered and just received the speakers, can they still let Axiom know about me referring them? If so, do they just give them my screen name, how do you get reimbursed?
