I'm no audiophile and I haven't really listened to a good pair of speakers for over 30 years when one of my best friends had a fairly decent pair of 'monitors', as they were called, in his bed room and we'd listen to all the great bands and singer songwriters of the seventies.
Those 'monitors' seemed impressive to me at the time but the LFR 1100s blow them away! I shouldn't even be comparing them - it's not fair! Frankly, I've never heard better speakers in my life than your LFR 1100s.
The clarity and definition of different sounds / instruments is remarkable even when those instruments are playing the same note. The reproduction of vocals is like being live in the studio. The sound stage, especially pronounced with drums, is incredibly clear and accurate. You can hear the variation in drum skins! Finally, the bass response is breathtaking (and potentially house shattering when turned up loud!) I love the sensation of the bass in tandem with the beat of the bass drum.
What more can I say? The only negative thing I can think of is how damn big and heavy the beasts are but they're worth it if that's what it takes to reproduce recorded music so faithfully.
Thanks for helping me to achieve my audio nirvana.

Recently, I had a chance to listen to Axiom's new LFR1100's. Simply put, these speakers are a new sound experience. There is a depth and breadth of sound I have never heard in any speaker. The LFR1100's, with the addition of the rear components, fill the room with sound that is like something you've never heard before. The old adage 'It's like you were there!' takes on new meaning with LFR1100's. My wife and I are now trying to figure out to re-jig the family room to make the perfect space for a set of LFR1100's.

WOW! I have never been this taken aback by a pair of speakers. Every song I play is like hearing it for the first time!

a sophisticated huge soundstage with pronounced layering and good image focus in a large listening window that remained stable over both width and height. . . . Mr. Colquhoun and Mr. Welker have produced a speaker system which goes for refinement in tonal balance, very wide dynamic range and low distortion. Add to that a well-focused immense soundstage and a slight softening in transient behavior and one remains outside the extreme transparency camp to be firmly on the musical enjoyment side. The big Axiom plays it big, brawny and engaging.

'The first thing that was apparent about the sound of the LFR1100 was its seemingly limitless dynamics and ability to play loudly with no hint of strain. I've had several speakers in my system that I've described as having exceptional power-handling characteristics, but the LFR1100 was the best in that regard by a wide margin. It could coast along at volume levels that, with most speakers of its size and price, would have had me worrying about damaging the drivers. . . But my timidity was probably misguided -- even at these insane levels, the sound was still crystal clear, without any of the compression or harshness associated with driving speakers past their limits.
'. . .their big, open sound, exceptional clarity, and massive dynamics are astonishing for a speaker of this size and price.'
