OK I have been searching for speakers for the last month. Looking for an effective bookshelf that won't drive me to the poorhouse. I like the B&W 602's. I just like the way the speakers sounds. Nice and open, great revealing clarity. However after reading all the reviews on the Axiom line I have to question whether to spend the money on the 602's. I am thinking of picking up the M22ti's. Based on the cabinet size they would be comparable to the B&W. My question is should I expect the same type of bass response from the Axiom. The B&W 602 has a 6.5" driver. the M22ti has 2, 5 1/4 drivers. It is tough buying something unheard. Some people have taken the leap and have been happy. My question is do I spend the Money or take a leap of faith?
