Axiom Customer Reviews
Below are just a few of the many reviews that our customers have been kind enough to send us. To view their opinions on a particular Axiom loudspeaker, please select the model that you are interested in from the menu below.
I love these speakers. They hit a new high yesterday when I accidentally left my receiver up a lot higher than I normally did. When that voice came in I couldn't believe how clear and perfect it was, still after a few months! It never hurts or gets tiring, just clean beautiful sound whether with movies or with music, paired with my subwoofer

The moment I hooked my M22s up to my stereo I knew, for the first time, what the words "audio bliss" really meant.  
5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating   james r., CA - July 21, 2008



smooth and crisp - not as full as the floor standers - but I couldn't afford the space in my living room for those. The M22s are pretty nice.

I just love them. Big enough for "big sound" but small enough for versatile placement options. I get compliments on the sound, but people would really be impressed if they knew what I paid for them. Or didn't pay, depending on how you look at it. My only negative is the aesthetics--the design is just a little outdated. It's not ugly, but it's not beautiful either. That's hard to complain about when you've got a SACD track playing, though.

Glad I took a chance on a unknown speaker company from up north. Sound and look great mounted on the wall with the swivel bracket

Excellent speakers. I considered the M50s and I opted for the M22s. I have them set up on (non-Axiom) stands and they are tight and sweet. I use them more often than not for TV / Home Theatre audio (along with an EP125 sub and a VP100 center) and I'm very pleased. Axiom leads in value and customer service. Buy Canadian / North American.

These unassuming speakers are the quintessence of raw sound. Simply close your eyes and these speakers are your ticket to a concert hall, a football stadium, or the middle of a movie. Sound so clear and crisp you will forget your are in a room and not live at the event. The best part, you will make your friends jealous by spending half as much and receiving twice the clarity than their speakers.  
5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating   Michael H., UT - June 4, 2009



About as much fun as you can have in less than 2 feet... They may be small but you'll want to push some real power at these bad boys. Absolutely perfect for someone wanting more from a smaller package. Score some points with your spouse / significant other, who can't abide your mondo towers, pick up a pair of these. Pair them with one of Axioms digital subs and badda bing badda booom- OH hell yeah!

I just wanted to let you know that I'm thoroughly enjoying my M22 v2 speakers. I have them in my bedroom & drive them with an Adcom GFA 535 II power amp & the Adcom GFA 555 II preamp. I'm very impressed how these little speakers perform as if they were big speakers. Nice clean, crisp, detailed highs & mids. Good bass response for a small driver as well.  
5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating   Bruce H., ON - January 2, 2009



These speakers are very versatile and an incredible value. The sound is crisp and clear with plenty of volume for a modest size room. They are excellent for main speakers in a home theater system where space is at a premium. Add a subwoofer and they will amaze you for almost any kind of music. You can't go wrong with the M22s. Even if you eventually upgrade, you'll find you just can't part with them.  
5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating   Joe N., CT - June 5, 2009



Received the M22s via Fedex this morning. Don't even have them on speaker stands yet. They sound amazing transparent. Had a client give me one of their latest cds, very complex jazz and blues arrangements. These speakers handle everything without getting muddy. The midrange really shines. Listened to some George Winston, and could literally hear how hard he hit each key of his piano. My biggest challenge now is to find a resting place for these Boston Acoustics. I'm definitely looking to get the EP350 subwoofer. I can tell that I'll have quite a stereo system soon.  
5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating   Steven F., CA - February 11, 2009



Even my friend who is an acoustical engineer admires the sound to price ratio that the M22s possess. The M22s produce such warm tones and surprising bass with no sub. Couldn't be happier.  
5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating   Matt B., NJ - June 3, 2009



I have own the M22 speakers for some time now and I am extremely happy with them. For the amount of money I paid for, these speakers cannot be beat. The quality of the sound is crisp and clear, unlike many speakers, there is no over tuned high and low range that muffled the sound. Playing music and sing Karaoke with the M22 (and Sub) is just great. Together with my other Axiom speakers (Center, Surround and Sub; purchase around 1999; discontinued), I also enjoy great movies and surround music. I gave it 5 out of 5 for the quality of the speakers at this low price range.

I've had the M22v2 speakers in my basement home theatre for about a year now along with 4 QS4's and a VP 100. It never fails to amaze me how superb these speakers sound. Many, many nights I have spent in the theatre just listening to my albums and cd's with the 112" screen black, receiver set to pure direct,...the sound is just that good! Keep up the great work Axiom. Lloyd Metcalf, Oshawa On

If you want a big sounding speaker setup with clean highs and mids and a tight bass response, paring the M22's with a subwoofer will give you the full-range experience of tower speakers. Excellent pair of speakers. I use them in my computer audio listening setup.  
5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating5/5 Star Rating   Daniel D., IN - April 30, 2009



Great quality, inside and out. I'm using these in a HT setting, hung horixontally from the ceiling, either side of the screen, In conjuction with an HSU sub, the sound is awsome! Axiom customer service is 5 stars too. one of the drivers had a small dent in the cone (but still sounded fine), Axiom sent out a new driver immediately, "keep the damaged one".

Simply incredible. Amazing sound at an unbelievable price. Someday I will upgrade to M80s, but in my current small living room these are more than enough; I never feel like I want or need more.

Excellent sound from the M22. Very pleased with the performance of this speaker. I use them with a 10 inch sub, and the bass is much improved by adding a sub.

My inlaws asked me to put a two channel system together that would be good for a varitey of music types. With a limited budget I wanted to get the best speakers they could afford. I came across Axiom in an online review and boy am I glad I did. These speakers are absolutely stunning. The build quality is exceptional, but more importantly the sound is amazing. I wanted to keep them for myself and give my floorstanders to them, they were that good. Keep up the great work Axiom as you have a new devoted customer.

I couldn't be more pleased. The size and maple color allow them to blend in nicely on the bookshelves surrounding our big screen in the family room. The sound provides everything I would have hoped for. Even before I finally installed a subwoofer, I was more than happy that these speakers did a fine job at replacing the floor standing Celestions that disappeared with my bachelorhood.

Before i bought the m3s i owned a pair of $2400 jm labs .i was very happy with them ,but i'm an audiophile,and we are never happy. i had read so many rave reviews of your speakers that i just had to see what they sounded like. as soon as i heard the m3s i asked to upgrade to the m22s and gave my jm labs away. i since have bought the finest amp i could find to do the m22s justice. i'm now a 55 year old audiophile and i really feel i've found the finest audio i've ever heard. and what pleases me so much is everybody i have met at axiom has been so nice to me. i feel really proud to be part of the axiom family.

I read the reviews, saw the awards, and liked the style but had never heard them. I thought I would give it a shot, but had not had a chance to put in my order. My wife bought the M22 bookshelf speakers for the heck of it (without me knowing), knowing I have wanted a new set of speakers. I dragged my wife along to listen to many options over the last couple of years, and I must say the M22 are the best bookshelf speakers we have heard! The first night I had them I did an A/B test with my Polks using Frank Sinatra's Christmas cd and I think it was the first time my wife commented on a speaker's performance. Thank you, Axiom, for making such a wonderful speaker at an outstanding price. They produce a wonderful, crisp, clear sound listening to metal, Sinatra, classical or movies. Keep up the good work, and thanks to my loving and gorgeous wife.
Charles D., MN


Completly blown away by the sound these speakers make - The Best Sound for the money!
Bobby N., FL


The Speakers are Great. Thanks for the quick service. I did Audio for
CBS TV for 35 years an I have to say your speakers are a great value.

Thanks
Jim R., ME


Afternoon, just wanted to give you guys a follow-up on the MTi22's.
They are undoubtedly one of the best deals for the money. They're broken in, and the system never tires!! I can't thank you guys enough for offering such a sweet spot of quality. People are blown away by the clarity. Will recommend these speakers to everyone I know interested in upgrading, you'll have to pry these things from my dead cold hands, Thanks for great work,
Chad V., TX

If you are looking for great sound then buy these Axiom M22-V2 speakers, or better yet buy the whole set. I love my new speakers. I have B&W front speakers and a JBL 12" Subwoofer. These M22 V2's have sold me on the Axiom product, as soon as I can save the money I plan on buying the full set. I can't wait!!

P.S They are very well built and look great!!

My M22's and EP350 combination are perfect for my needs. They fill my 4200 cu.ft room with crystal clear music. They are built with precision and I would guess a lot of care by the employees.I could tell from the moment I opened the boxes that this is a quality product.I would highly recommend Axiom to anyone looking for loudspeakers. e Nuance speakers I bought and tried out(and returned) don't even come close to these. I will buy the surrounds and center from Axiom soon.
Kim T., BC



The midrange is superb and treble is always getting better. The soundstage
and the image is excellent for a speaker in this price range. Better than
1500$ floorstanding I've auditioned. The bass is not low because it's a
bookshelf. But it's tight and precise.
Chris C., QC

Well, I'm now playing amazing iPod sound on a pair of M22s and the EP 350 that fills our new master bedroom with all our favorites, whenever we want them (lucky I ripped all those CDs at best compression settings to get the most out
of these beasts). I can play them wirelessly, from any room in our new apartment, from any computer, thanks to the Apple wireless setup.

I sure wish Yamaha made it as easy as you guys do. I replaced that high-end Yamaha (great in its day and still fine so we pressed it into service in the bedroom) with the new Pioneer, for our home theatre, still hooked up to your monster Axiom surround system. Guess what?

Your top-of-the-line system (can't remember all the model numbers) sounds EVEN BETTER in our apartment! I have no idea why because the old home theater had "theoretically perfect acoustics" than the way our apartment lays out. It's kind of spooky -- I think the speakers simply refuse to emit anything that mindblowing sound.

From the subtlest tinkles to explosions that shake the entire downtown apartment building we've just moved into), the old beast continues to astound me. The new set of speakers are truly incredible and fit and look wonderful. And.... it took me longer to figure out how to reconfigure the Yamaha than it did to take everything out of the boxes, do the wiring and get it all going.

With Axiom pouring out of our office, too (the top of our 3 floors downtown), I guess you could say, in my best "Ahnold"
impression possible...

"I've been Awhxiomated." :-)

Thanks a million,
Ken Evoy

Thanks for the follow-up note! I had to wait for my receiver to arrive, but I have the system set-up since Tuesday. I must say very impressive so far! I'm systematically going through my music collection and these speakers definitely add a new dimension :) I listened to Paradigm and B&W bookshelf speakers in a store before I bought the Axiom's and the Axiom's sound just as good or better to me!
Thanks,
Steven S., MI

My speakers arrived in good condition and I think they'll meet our requirements nicely. I matched them up with a small Martin Logan subwoofer - the combination sounds great together. We look forward to enjoying our system for years to come.Regards,
Tad D., WA

I recently ordered a pair of M22tis and could not be more pleased.    They look elegant, are well constructed, and, oh yeah, they sound incredible.  It made me fall in love with 2-channel audio all over again.  I recently ordered a VP 150 and am eagerly awaiting its arrival, and will soon continue to order until I've redone my bedroom theater with a full 7.1 of Axiom speakers.  Keep up the great work!  You have won yourselves a long time fan and customer. 
Ben C., TN

I love 'em! It's amazing what a difference these are from my old 70s RCAs. THANK YOU!
Ryan A., FL


everything looks great.  They sound awesome.  Thanks for the exceptional service. Greg W., CA


I did receive the M22's last Friday and they sound Awesome! My plan was to try them out and then order the rest if I liked them. Well, I placed my order for a VP150 and 4 of the QS8's yesterday! I was cautiously optomistic due to the rave reviews and also some of the negative comments I had read. Well, I was blown away by the quality! The people who were negative have either never heard these before or they have really bad rooms/equipment/setups/ears or something because these are great. They deserve all of the positive professional and user reviews they have received. I'll be happy with these as long as they last. Thank you.

PS. I've been in this hobby for over 10 years and have owned Atlantic Technology, Energy and Cambridge Soundworks and the Axioms are easily the best I've owned. Count me as a fan!
Anthony C., TX

Just a quick note to you folks to let you know how impressed I am with these M22ti's after giving a solid test drive for a month --- fantastic sound from such a relatively small speaker (and, even better, at a price that I consider to be very reasonable).
Don T., ON



Thanks very much for the efficient service and incredibly fast delivery.
I hooked up the speakers last night and played Beethoven's triple concerto.
The speakers played amazingly well in the middle and higher range. My wife & cello playing teenager were astonished. I intend to play then hard for a while, but if they do half as well with R&B and rock, as they do with classical, you'll have a family of delighted customers.
George B., RI


They are AWSOME just like you guys!! You got them shipped out Wed.
afternoon and I was rocking with my best girl Friday night! (her response was worth twice the price of the speakers)

One of the amazing things about the incredible sound is that the signal they are getting is coming from the absolute cheapest amp and CD player that Best Buy had four years ago (my previous $3,000+ system went in the divorce) and I've been existing with a very poor substitute for silence since. . . BUT NOT ANY MORE! Thank You!
Dale C., IN

I received my speakers andhooked them up.  Wow!, what a sound.  I am very happy with my purchase.
Steve B , CA

I am *definitely* enjoying the new axiom speakers!

On a side note, I went to a hifi shop and auditioned the b&w nautilus
805 speakers (with a primaire preamp, classe power amp). The b&ws sounded flat, and lacked warmth and lowend. The soundstage was all lined up in a 2d plane, and was too laid back for enjoyment. Technically, it sounded great in the mid/high range, but for $2000, I am incredibly glad I bought the axioms for a fifth of the price. Sounds better, anyway. :)

have a great day - I will be purchasing more things throughout the course of my life. Looking forward to the next purchase! The ep125 is coming next. :)
Kyung P., CA

Just a note to thank you and all the great people who work for Axiom. I am very happy with my new speakers and I am sure I will be purchasing more Axiom speakers in the future as I upgrade to a home theatre system. I was a

little leery of purchasing speakers on-line but the great independent reviews I read and your helpful on-line support won me over.
Martin U., NS

I replaced a 22-year-old pair of Pioneer speakers that were rotting away - pieces of the material around the woofer were falling off. Your M22ti speakers are an unbelievable improvement in sound quality and one fourth the size.

I am in my mid 40s and have not purchased stereo speakers for many years as family needs always seem to take prioirty. I was a little hesitant to purchase speakers over the Internet without hearing them, but glad I did. With so many reviews and customer viewpoints available on various web sites, the quality of speakers I received was exactly what I was expecting. Congratulations on your efforts to successfully market on the web!

Thanks for a great purchasing experience.
Ron D., IL


It's beautiful! Thank you!

Khoa H., IL

Thank you for the follow-up e-mail. I have just installed my new Axiom speakers and they sound fabulous. Keep up the good work.
Larry S., NY

I must confess the M22ti's put my Infinity home theatre floor standing speakers to shame! I'm still working on getting the EP125 subwoofer set up at the right levels, but after getting that hooked up, I listened to a CD that has exceptional recording quality - it's the artist who goes by the name of Seal, and his latest CD had a few tracks that are EXCELLENT for putting speakers through the paces.
Glenn A., CO


I've only had a chance to listen to them for about 15 minutes last night at 11:30 pm. But they sound terrific!
Mark N., GA

Went through 20 CD's last night. Great sound. Thanks
Milton H., WA



I just had to let you know that I am completely bowled over by the M22s. They are amazing. All the reviews I read about soundstage, clarity etc are completely true. Even when you consider that I paid an extra $ 200. shipping,vat,and duty they are well worth it. I also realise how badly recorded some of my CDs are.
That Ian is a sound man, tell him thanks, Slan,
Michael L., Ireland



WOW,....WOW WOW WOW!!!
Thank you all so much. The M22's and the VP100 are beautiful. They sound absolutely brilliant. Up to know I have had bose, and now I realize how much of the midrange and high frequencies that I have been missing. They look fantastic, I must say that your site could really use some larger pictures the current ones just don't really show them off.
Please thank Jean, he was very courteous and helpful.
Thanks,
Tim B., NH


it's tuesday and I got my speakers today! I was told probably wednesday so they are a day early, what a great suprise. i hooked them up and they are great and look beautiful. I have heard that they need some kind of breakin period so I am expecting even better things to come. I really am impressed with the effiency of your company and support, if only the rest of the world was as diligent.

i will be recommending you to any and every one within earshot...and maybe even farther...
Dan Y., IL


Yep, they're here! The FedEx guy was somewhat appalled at having to deliver so many boxes to a residential address at the SAME TIME, but when I helped him lug them into the house he was at least somewhat mollified. I'm still putting everything together, and getting the room ready for them (boring holes through walls and floors, running MILES of cable, and generally thrashing around). I can't WAIT to fire everything up and see how it sounds!

Physically, the speakers and stands are flat-out beautiful! I particularly appreciate being able to run speaker cables through the stands themselves: it removes SO much clutter, and makes everything so much neater--and safer for a klutz like me! My 2 cats and 9 dogs will also appreciate this amenity.

I'll let you know when everything's up and running!

Have I told you that I REALLY appreciate your 'business model and the very human interface with Axiom? If the speakers are even half as good as this experience has been (and they'll be better than that!), you folks are real winners! Best,
John K., IA


I am greatly enjoying the m22s - they arrived in good condition. I even took them to my local audio store to A-B them against the B&W 601s - the folks there were very helpful, but the 601s did not have near the clarity and soundstage of the axioms - consider me sold!
Roy M., TX



Just to let you know, I was surprised and delighted to find the Purolator delivery man with my M22ti's safely on the doorstep by noon Fri. (less than
24 hrs. in shipment). Excellent service.
I connected the speakers this weekend and am, so far, extremely pleased with their outstanding sound. To be this good right out of the box is exceptional, and I can't wait til they break in a little.
I short, I am very pleased with my first Axiom experience, and in addition to shortly ordering a second set of speakers myself, would/will recommend your company to anyone. My compliments on an excellent product and marketing/sales program. You appear to be a company that actually does, promise less, but deliver more...unfortunately, all too rare these days.
Thanks again.
Bob O., ON


You know I have been a lover of good wine for a long time. My greatest lament is the pomp and pretension centered around describing a great wine.
There are terms that must be used if you want to appear knowledgeable.
Personally I prefer to say this was an amazing bottle you should try it, the wine will justify itself. If forced to justify my joy I will use those terms but they just seem to lack emotion. I hate clinically deconstructing something that brought such pleasure.
I find my self in the same position with the new M22s that I just wired into my system. Speakers this good make me wish I had the full range of audiophile vocabulary to call on just so I could justify to the acoustically high brow why I pity the amount they spent. Words like transparency and clarity of reproduction just seem to lack the joy to describe the sound these speakers bring. I guess if I dont feel like talkking I can just let
the speakers speak for themselves. Since I am writing to you I will
leave it at stunning and amazing (I do not think an Oh my God would be out of place). I thought it was cliché when I read the reviews; I rediscovered music.... Three hours of sitting and just listening I understood. I look forward to going home and seeing what else I can listen to. You have a loyal customer and a devout advocate. If they paid teachers better I would be ordering a new center channel and surrounds with this letter...
Best Regards,
Michael S., CO
p.s. I never write letters for products I buy...



FYI, those little Axiom speakers are amazing. They are replacing my Martin Logan Aerius($2,500/pair) and I'm not sure I don't like the M22 better.
Bill T., OH

Got the speakers: AWESOME!
You can count on my future business, and I'll tell my friends!!,
Dan A., IA


Thank you so much for following up. That is great customer service, something i am sad to say I don't experience often. I am more then pleased with the new speakers so far.
I hope to get one of your center channel speakers soon. The M22s are easily the best speakers I have ever had the pleasure of listening to.
Kurt H., MD

I'm loving them already - the sound is great! Thanks for a great product and excellent service.
Julian M., NY



I just wanted to let you know how absolutely pleased I am with your speakers. I began shopping for speakers three years ago. As a classically trained musician, I wanted to be able to enjoy the full symphonic experience at home. Additionally, as a classically trained musician, in a musical profession, my budget was limited. I auditioned several speakers and couldn’t find any that were up to the full force of the orchestra when called upon by Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Wagner, Shostakovich, etc. The middle of the orchestra would inevitably become “muddy”. The only solution I found up to that point was the Gold Reference Speakers from Monitor Audio.
After doing a lot of research online, I decided to take a chance on your M22’s. I had planned, if they worked out as reviewers claimed, to use them as surrounds and purchase the M60’s for the fronts. Well, am I glad I tried the M22’s! They are fantastic speakers. Paired with my sub, I couldn’t be happier with how they handle music of all kinds. They have breathed new life into my recordings.
Since purchasing the M22’s I have rounded out my home theatre with your VP150 and 3 QS4’s. They are all fantastic speakers! I can’t believe I was considering financing $8,000 worth of audio equipment that wouldn’t have sounded a nickel better than your products.
Thank you so much,
Matthew T., Axiom Fan, NC

It's risky buying speakers for a guy as particular as my father is, but the M22tis I've got now are absolutely beautiful speakers. I play vinyl on them and the soundstage is tall and wide, and it's like listening to records when I was a boy. My father has a small listening area and so I got the shorter M3tis, but I can't wait for Christmas. He'll love them. You all have been very accomodating. Thank you very much. Sincerely,
John H., FL



I have been meaning to write to you guys for some time. We had an addition measuring 24 by 14 in the rear of our house which has become our family/media room. We now have a big screen TV and a 6.1 Channel Home Theater setup with your M22s as our front speakers WOW! Your quality bookshelf speakers with my Cambridge Soundworks 12 Sub sounds awesome. Your speakers are so musical on CDs and they add so much realism to and DVD we play! I auditioned a couple of different speaker brands (Boston Acoustics, Paradigm to name a couple) at a Tweeter's and another High End stereo store but I have to say that your M22s on the SS24 stands filled with sand and stone make our system sing. They are extremely musical and so natural / neutral sounding and yes they are getting better with use. My sons and I as well as just about anyone else who hears the system cannot believe the clarity. We crank up the volume on the launch scene from Armageddon where both space shuttles are taking off simultaneously and it is awesome. Thanks for a super quality product and a wonderful finish - I don't know how you did it but the Charcoal Grey M22s almost exactly match the Hitachi big screen TV so besides the great sound it all looks great together. Believe me if I ever decide to change any of the speakers in the system at a later date you guys will definitely get my business.

Sincerely another new and loyal fan in Maine, USA John R.

I purchased the M22i's and the dipole Q-8. The speakers were from the B-Stock store and I can't seem to find anything wrong with them. They look like new to me. I hooked up the speakers last night and they are beautiful sounding speakers and the build quality is outstanding. I am coming from Paradigm monitor series speakers and the build quality is so high above there I can't believe it. Thank you for a great product and fast shipping to Oregon!
Ed R., OR

I received my order today, and couldn't wait to get the speakers set up. I have to tell you that I spent several hours sitting and enjoying the amazing sound! Your speakers are everything I expected, and a lot more. I still can't believe what a bargain this system is, and what an improvement it is over my previous speaker system. I just wanted to say thank you. I know where I'm going to direct anyone who's looking for new speakers, and I expect I'll be back again when I'm ready to upgrade again.
Sincerely,
Joe N., CT



My wife and I are cutting our 4th CD of old time mountain music and I
wanted to share that after about a year, I continue to appreciate how
wonderful my M22's sound with this music. Of course the fact that low bass
isn't an issue contributes, but I am used to being in the same room with
world-class acoustic instruments and musicians and when I hear the same
people and instruments through my Axioms, I can't tell the difference! We
continue to use our Axioms to master our CDs.

My new M22's arrived this afternoon in perfect condition. I hooked them up immediately, coupling them to a Boston Acoustics 100 watt, 10 sub.
Notice: You're not getting them back! My wife Andrea and I are re-discovering our music collection and are having a great time doing so. The speakers and the service exceed expectation, an unbelievable value in an era of hype. Now, I'll have to save my penies for an Axiom sub! Cheers,
Doug G., MD


I received my Millennia M22ti Bookshelves yesterday. Only 2 days shipping.

The speakers are, quite simply, awesome.

Thank you very much for your wonderful pre-sales advice, your prompt shipment, and the fantastic speakers,. Your company should be proud of a job well done, and I would heartily recommend you to anyone who needs speakers for their audio system.

I received my m22ti's today. Bravo, a miracle has occurred in my living room. Bruce M., MN


I bought a pair of M22tis about a year ago and have enjoyed them off and on in various systems. They are fine speakers and great value. But I've found a magic combo with your speakers and wanted to pass it along. I have the speakers on 24 stands (for some reason, much better sounding than what I'd think would be more appropriate 18 ones), with a modded Pioneer DVD running straight into a Sophia Baby amp--ten whopping watts--and this system makes music like almost no other I've had in my home. I confess to giving a good chunk of the credit to the Sophia amp, which is stunning regardless of cost (it lists for $800), but the Axiom speakers are its match, producing a detailed, big, and, most important, musical sound. I find myself listening to this system more than to my big one, which costs multiples of the smaller one.
Mark Jacobs

I'm one that researches everything and speakers were no different. With all the positive reviews I read, the price, the quality, and the 30 day money back guarantee...It was a no brainer! I took the chance and am now rediscovering my CD collection! Thanks Axiom!
David L., PA


I was impressed that a smaller speaker can produce such a wide range of sound. Much to my suprise,these speakers feature plenty of tight bass,and balanced treble- which was pleasing to my ears.I was shocked that a small cabinet can produce such a deep sound,comparable to a pair of tower speakers. My living room was filled with the sound of clear, crisp music.

Thanks to your recommendation, I finally found a pair of speakers that are accurate souding and conducive for most types of music, especially Jazz. I guess in the speaker world, Size doesn't matter and big things come in small packages. James D., FL

The M22's are perhaps the best speaker Axiom has ever made. So neutral, so open, so detailed, so clear, it never backs down from the pressure of any recording, no matter how complex, loud, or soft. Match it well with good wire and good stands, and you have the best speakers for less than a couple thousand dollars, by far.
Ravi S., QC

Excellent speakers, excellent price. I only purchased 2 pair of M22Tis for my home theatre, but with this price/performance it will not take me long to order the surrounds, sub, and a centre. Keep up the great work!
Dion E., NS



I am more satisfied with these products than any other audio or video products that I have purchased in the last thirty years. Price/performance ratio is totally off the scale! The M22s create a wonderful seamless soundstage that makes the music seem as if the musicians are in my living room. Tremendous clarity and smoothness in the midrange and treble ranges-there is a sense of refinement in the sound that has had me listening to more music in the last two weeks since I got these beauties than I had in the last six months. Bass is also excellent for a speaker of this size. It was snap to integrate them with my two NHT 10 subwoofers. Jimmy L., IN



My fiance listened to them for a while and then went out of the way to tell her Mother about them. Now THERE is a rave review! These are truly great speakers.
William M., NY


I purchased a set of the M3ti and one pair of the M22 i series speakers over the last few months. They are absolutely wonderful. The sound is clear, deep, and precise. Just beautiful music for the price. The reviews i read were on target-the best sound for the price paid. they are better than speakers costing many more dollars. The workmanship and overall quality are truly remarkable. I would give them a 5 point rating on a scale of 1-5, 5 being the best. The bass is very good-but for true bass lovers a Subwoofer would be helpful for the big, deep bangs. These two sets of bookshelf speakers are highly recommended. You can't go wrong. The 30 day try out period in your own home cant be beat either. The staff is wonderful to deal with and respond quickly to your questions, concerns, etc. they are very friendly as well.
Shel M., MD



Astonishing improvement over my old Boston A60's, I must admit with my low end electronics I wasn't expecting the M22TI's to sound as good as they do, the improvement in detail and clarity is like night and day. I took a chance with the Axioms after auditioning the usual suspects in the budget bookshelf category (Paradigm Monitor 3, B&W 601, etc...) and couldn't be happier.
Wayne B., NY



Truly Amazing. I have never heard so much sound out of such little speakers. These speakers have the power to shake my house. I can't say it enough truly amazing!!!!!
Gary W., ON



Amazing speakers! incredible clarity and transparency of sound. Unbelievable bass for driver size. Buy these speakers!
Jeff F., ON



I use the M22Tis as rear surround speakers for my home theatre system. The tonal quality emanating from these small speakers are quite deep, warm and with a larger sound stage that usually reproduce by floor standing speakers. The high is crystal clear with a smooth transparent feel to it without being bright or harsh. Amazingly, these ] little puppies can crank out some very low but rich frequency, again very smooth. I listen to music more than ever before, jazz, standards, classical... And for vocals, they are unbelievably realistic for I can hear smoothness that the voices carry in all octaves. The sound is very enveloping and transparent that filled my sizable listening room, 22' x 20' with 12' high vaulted ceiling.

For HT, these little power houses reproduce true to live (special effect) sounds from flying helicopters, explosions, dinosaurs to crickets in the distance. Clarity and realism, the two main ingredients I look for in surround speakers and the M22Tis surpass beyond my expectation. These speaker are the best bang for the bucks, an outstanding value.
Andy L., CA



Just got the speakers and I've found I'm falling in love with my music all over again. Hearing things I haven't heard before. The sound is very clean without being austere, warm without being wooly. 5-1/4 woofers give amazing bass reproduction, even without a subwoofer, which I may decide to add eventually. But since I don't listen as much to rock/pop as I do to jazz and orchestral, these have plenty of oomph with no distortion. And they look great too. I can't wait to go home and put on another disc!
Andy S., NY


I just wanted to let you know that the M22ti and FMS16 arrived on today without any problems. And everything seems to be working fine as well. Thanks a lot.
Yoshihiro T., Japan



Thanks for the follow up. I love the system, and love your excellent customer service. You definetly have a repeat customer.
Steve L., VA



The speakers are terrific. You will be interested and maybe mortified to know that they are currently being powered by my JVC office-type CD player/clock radio. I hope someday to have ten minutes to figure out which amp to buy.

Thanks so much for the great product, service and follow-up, Amie.Kind regards,
Brian E., NY



Yep ... they're here and they sound fantastic! I was also surprised to see that they made it here so quickly.Thanks and best wishes from Southern California!
Bob L., CA

Thank you for outstanding customer service. Please pass along our compliments to your co-workers. I sent an email asking for assistance in choosing a speaker and received a response within 30 minutes. I ordered the speakers On-line and we received our speakers the next day, before we even had time to check the Purolator website ! Wow ! You guys are good !
Carol-Ann O., ON



I received my speakers on Monday and immediately took them home and set them up. I am so happy about my purchase from Axiom. Being an opera fan, detailed sound was a priority as I made my speaker selection. I couldn't be more pleased with your great product the M22.
I can't wait for my friends to hear them. Thank you for a very fast delivery of this very fine product.

I've been listening to my new M22ti speakers for 3 weeks now. I have them hooked up to a Yamaha RX-596 stereo receiver (80 watts, 120 watt dynamic headroom). For the first week, I listened to a variety of different music, ranging from your suggestion of Bavarian Highlands (great album by the way) to home-made frequency-modulated sine waves. I was fairly impressed with the clarity of the sound. Voices sound like human beings, not robots; hi-hats are nice and crisp (I am a percussionist); and orchestras fill the room nicely (I have a relatively large appartment). The only lacking department, these being bookshelfs, was in electronica music, where the bass was simply insufficient to make the floors vibrate. This being said though, my roommate's system (worth a few thousand more than my own) performed more poorly than mine in all of my tests. This was impressive since his speakers have 6 1/2 drivers, whereas the M22ti have only 5 1/4 drivers. This first week of testing made a good first impression.
For the following two weeks of testing, I added a Polk PSW404 subwoofer to my system (sorry, I bought it before I learned about AxiomAudio). This addition did not really change the sound quality of classical music in general, although it might have added some depth and definition. The difference can be felt mostly for rock, jazz, and electronica, where the kick-drum and the bass make a significant contribution to the musical experience. The M22ti intergrate really well with the sub (I have to turn the sub off to convince myself that it's actually working). All-in-all an interesting musical experience no matter my immediate auditory needs.
Finally, I should say that I discovered AxiomAudio by pure luck. I was last-minute surfing for reviews on another brand of speakers (my mind was set on buying these, although I had last-minute regrets because I had not been impressed when listening to them in a local store). Shopping for speakers is a disaster. The vast majority of reviews are not helpfull at all and can be misleading. Anyway, I somehow ended up on the AxiomAudio website and clicked on Bookshelf speakers. I was initially impressed by the look of the speakers: they did not look like toys made for gullible amateurs. Then, there was the fact that I could listen to them at home for one month. The website was also professional, with a newsletter that was truely informative. I told myself that I had nothing to lose...and I didn't. I will not be returning these speakers. Thank you, Sincerely,
Joe P, NJ



I recently purchased these speakers and hooked them up to my tiny new
1bit sharp theater system. high tech but only about twenty something whats per channel. took the speakers over to my friends place who has nice quality sound all throughout his house. amplifiers, powered speakers, nice receivers, cable, etc. anyway in one of his rooms, he had some powered roland monitors that in the past i thought were so nice and he paid $600.00 each for the roland bookshelf type speakers. i brought my axom top end bookshelf speakers and he hooked them up where his rolands had been and these speakers sounded soooo much cleaner and sweeter than the rolands i had just recently truely enjoyed. when i told him the cost of only $220 u.s.
per speaker with no tax and free shipping----he actually made the comment that i was showing off!!! after hearing these speakers connected to more powerful, nice equipment, i was even more impressed with the quality of the sound. very nice!
Jeff B., NV

I just want to let you know that I am completely satisfied with my purchase. My M22s (and stands) were shipped quickly and arrived with no problems. I hooked these bad boys up and my jaw dropped! It sounded like Diana Krall was right there in my living room! Amazing!
I only initially purchased the pair to trial the Axiom sound. I love the sound and, let's just say, I will soon have a complete AXIOM 7.1 system.
Thanks Axiom!
Joe M., CA

ive just plugged it in,
currently burning them in with a little crowded house.
Beautiful!!!!!!

ive been grudgingly listening to music on computer speakers for a few years ( i move around alot) its an absolute delight to hear my music again, not a vauge approximation.

Great set of little speakers. I was impressed with how loudly these can play before I could detect any straining. Very well balanced and detailed. I have no problems recommending these to anyone who doesnt have alot to spend on speakers but wants something beyond the average big box offerings. The Piano Gloss white that mine are finished in is also very nicely done and the metal tweeter assembly on the vassallo series is a nice touch I was not expecting!

I got these first then got the M22s. These are good - especially for the price, but if your wallet can afford it go up the food chain to an M22 or a floor stander. Some people like these cause the bad recordings don't sound so bad, like they can on the M22s. These are not slightly treble oriented like most other Axioms.

M3's in a custom Vassallo finish, you can't get much better. These bookshelves floored me with their sound. I went back and forth with my M60' and the M3's and couldn't choose a winner. There just couldn't be one as they each have their own strong points and an ability to sound so good yet different. I played with the M3's as rear surrounds, front channels and presence speakers. They did well in each application but really they excelled as stereo speakers and can run full range beautifully. These have to be the all around Axioms.

I honestly can't believe how great these sound. As someone said before, these little speakers have no right to sound so awesome, but they do. For the price, you won't find anything that has the depth of sound, the clarity of highs and lows and the sheer volume it can put out. I'm definitely looking forward to expanding my home theater system with more Axiom speakers!

I always thought my Bose 301's sounded great, until I got a pair of M3's. I couldn't believe how much authority and clarity was coming out of such a small package. The 301's actually cost more and the Axioms make them sound like a clock radio.

I can't believe it's been a year now since I purchased these speakers. My wife wanted something small and unobtrusive for the family room TV and for Music. I wanted something with great sound. We both won. My wife was surprised that the speakers looked so nice (I guess that said something about what we had before). I had some problems initially that I thought might be a problem with a speaker but it ended up being a setup problem with my Onkyo Receiver (just a dumb mistake). Customer Service was excellent and stuck with me until the problem was resolved. They even contacted me later to make sure that everything was still good. For me, Axiom has been a great company and the M3's are a great value. I would recommend them to a friend.

I bought these speakers to boost up the sound on my old stereo and the difference was amazing. They greatly enhanced my vinyl collection and pumped out a nice range even with an older iPod.

The M3's are great little bookshelf speakers. They are everything I was looking for in a speaker to be a part of a dedicated 2 channel listening room. I compared and auditioned many speakers in Hi-Fi shops that were far more expensive and those that were available at the big box stores. I also own 5 lesser pairs of bookshelf speakers (most of which now gather dust) and a very nice pair of large floor standing speakers. I was very close to purchasing an "audiophile" speaker but was turned off by it's poor performance with one particular song. I decided to give the M3's a shot based on internet reviews and advice from owners. They offer the detail, clarity, forward mid-range, soundstage, imaging, and bass response found with the more expensive speakers I considered. They have handled everything I have thrown at them and I have yet to find them fatiguing in any way. I am very happy with the M3's. They truly are every bit as good as bookshelf speakers costing two to three times its price.

My M3's showed up Tuesday morning with the stands I now have them hooked up to my Jolida JD302BRC. These speakers out of the box are unreal. Called and ask about room set up for just 2 channel and I have it right on these aren't even broke in yet.

Sound stage and presence is so nice like hot butter just melting in the sun. I auditioned Paradigm S20.4 this are just as good or better and cost wow your company is top notch. And any of the bad reviews out there these people are def or they don't understand + and - signs on the speakers and there amps. Thank you again and I will write back with more on the M3's when they break in more.

Dear Axiom Staff,

Forgive me for contacting you again regarding my M3 speakers. It has now been 1 1/2 years since my purchase and I must tell you I love these speakers. I have been thru several pairs of "audiophile" speakers at double the price. To this day, they are the only pair I can thoroughly enjoy for hours....warm and smooth. Axiom is my brand for life! Thank you! Sincerely,

Got the speakers today :grin: They only shipped yesterday, I dont even think I could have traveled from canada to hawaii that quickly! I must say they are simply stunning.

Thank you all once again!

I purchased my first Axiom speakers in December 1987 ((AX5 Reference). They have been flawless and sound as perfect as day one. I\'m sure I have never used them to their full potential as they are in a living room. We decided we needed smaller speakers and the only choice was Axiom. Ordered, delivered and installed easily and the M3v2 bookshelf units sound almost as good as the big ones. Great folks to do business with and excellent performance and value from the speakers.

I have listened to the M3's for about two months now with 40 hours of "break in".  I have a 7.1 sourround system with the M3's as   the front speakers.  For the low end 80HZ and under I have a 12 inch down firing sub.  To say the least (or most) the Axioms are   the best two way speaker I have ever heard.  The music just dances off all four walls of my living room.    How you guys do it for the price is amazing.

I bought some m3 v2 bookshelf speakers as an early Christmas present for my wife (and for me as well, of course!) They're fantastic! I did quite a bit of online research, so I knew these speakers would sound great, unless there was a large contingent of dillusional people writing online reviews. My wife was a little skeptical at first, because she's never bought speakers that didn't come with a box system. However, as soon as I hooked them up, we were both very impressed. She raves about them now, and we're both very happy with our purchase. I will definitely consider Axiom in the future, and will recommend you to all my friends. Andrew P., NY



This is my second pair of bookshelf Axiom speakers. The M3 v2 I just purchased are a great combination of acoustic perfection and outstanding value. I replaced an older pair of Axioms CT-6...they are going to my office, not that there is anything wrong with them, but the titanium drivers and woofer on the M3 is better for my TV/Video setup. The office will have great background stereo music.

I will be moving to a larger house soon and it will definitely have a home theatre audio room. I would not hesitate to acquire an Epic system...the realism for value cannot be matched ANYWHERE! So many people spend countless hours on frills of receivers, amps, preamps with bells, whistles and pops. But really, when it all comes to audio you have one pair of ears and the lowest THD ratio to highest wattage will give you the best sound based on the frequency range. There is no better combination than with Axiom.

I am now involved in the Television and Film Industry and will promote Axiom at every venue I will be involved with in the future. Great work guys and gals!!!

I'm rediscovering music I forgot I had!  Two solid nights with the M3's and I'm still going through my CD collection, digging up tracks I've not listened to in years, just to hear what they sound like!  I'm hearing things I never did before.  Imaging, clarity, and the midrange.  Oh the midrange!  The most direct comparison I can make is to Dynaudio's Audience 52.  A speaker that costs well over twice as much as the M3.  The Axiom more than holds it own.  It really makes you wonder why other companies charge so much...  I had reservations about buying a speaker without hearing it first, but those concerns soon faded after warming up the amp with the M3's attached.  I quickly realized that I would not need to use Axiom's 30 day guarantee.  A bargain at twice the price.

Received my M3s about a week ago and had these first few comments.  Took me a few days to get the time to hook them up and listen.    I first had them in my garage hooked to a vintage Pioneer SX-950.  Very crisp and clear but also a bit muffled I thought.  So I took them inside and put them on top of my M60s and hooked them up to my Yamaha.   The sound had me asking if I had hooked up the 60s by mistake.  WOW!!!  These babies along with a sub are unbelievable!!  Clear, crisp, loud, great soundstage and imaging.  But ya'll already know that.  That's why we all love our Axioms and the great service ya'll provide (they made it here on the second day :-)) and that's why we keep coming back for more speakers, even when we really don't NEED them....  I did put them back in my garage since that is why I bought them and they are now hooked up to a vintage Sansui 9090DB.  They sound awesome and make working in the garage and yard much easier. All ya'll (that's plural in Texas for ya'll) are all great and thanks again for the wonderful products and service!!  Now if I can figure out how to get a sub in the garage!!!

I just received a pair of M3V2 bookshelf speakers. The pair of Paradigm 7 se's I have were just too big for the room. Honestly I was a little worried about the purchase, possibly making just a little too much down sizing or comprimise.(I've never seen or heard any Axiom's) I'm not an audio expert by any means but in laymans terms this is how I see or hear it. The M3V2's are fresh, crisp, clean and open. Actually, the music came to life. I did my shopping around before the purchase. Comparitivly speaking the fit, finish and most importantly, performance of the Axiom's is second to none I have seen or heard. Please give my congradulations to all involved in bringing these little gems to the customer. Very well done to all!

I recently purchased a pair of your M3ti's...all based on research... from
testimonials to professional reviews. Time and time again your speakers
came up winners with high recommendations; the messages were consistent,
give them a try, you won't be disappointed. I'm sending this bulletin
today to all who are considering an Axiom product: DO IT! It's all there,
imaging, soudstaging, build quality and clarity. I looked at most of the
competitors; PSB, B&W, Paradigm, Mission etc. all were much higher priced,
but not even near the value Axiom is delivering. This is my first purchase
from Axiom and I guarantee (to all) this is my new speaker company for
years and years to come. Your product is exceptional. I'm looking like an
audiophile genius.

The Axioms are truly a huge audiophile step up for me after owning the gamut of various name brand speakers over the years (Harvard, Cerwin Vega,Infinity,Yamaha,Polk,Pioneer)...Out of this list, the tower Cerwin Vegas served me very well with their thundering bass, but ,with their sharp and shrill tweeters and midrange, certainly did not make them audiophile quality (I was always getting ear and mind fatigue from them). The Infinity IL-10's had a nice, silky soft wide stereo image but there was always something that when closing my eyes I simply could tell they were still book shelf speakers (and they were heavy ones at that)! The rest of the brand names all lacked something sonically or overemphasized certain frequencies giving a very colored or artificial sound... With the Axioms, I don't hear speaker boxes;I hear MUSIC and riveting movie sound effects !!! Currently I am running them in a two channel stereo  setup in conjunction with a Velodyne CHT8 sub. The Axioms integrate seamlessly and exceptionally well with the Velodyne-----can't even tell I have a sub connected-----sounds like the thunderous bass is coming from the Axioms ! Your Axioms lack nothing or need nothing (even without the sub they are extremely enjoyable with all analog and digital sources) ! I look forward to purchasing more from you in the future---hopefully , from your tower speaker line...  Thanks again for your super customer service and awesome product,
Armando M., AZ

The speakers arrived yesterday -- very rapid shipment! They sound truly
magnificent.
Many thanks for your superb service!

I finally set up my speaker stands this weekend --they're beautiful. I was very impressed with the precision of the craftsmanship and how much it improved the sound of my speakers by getting them up off the floor.
Thanks for a great product that is worth the money.
Tim P., CA



I recieved the M3ti's and they sound wonderful- the bass really
surprises me for such a small speaker and the tweeter is fantastic! I'm
hearing percussion parts and chimes and symbols in the upper register that I just hadn't heard before. It has opened up space in the music of the recordings that I
have been listening to for years. Steely Dan is one of my favorite groups, at least all their albums in the 70's anyway and Wow!! I think they were masters of recording and I'm hearing new things now with them as well. I also got some 28 inch speaker stands and that really seems to make a differece as well. The M3Ti's have a smootheness to them that is not glossy, but warm. I was listening to Herbie Hancock's Maiden Voyage and what a fantastic sound! To hear the upright bass come right through the speakers and to hear all of the nuances of the tenor sax is such an experience. I also bought the Harmon Kardon 3380 Stereo Receiver and it sounds really nice. 80 watts per side seems perfect- I haven't bomblasted the neighbors yet as I have been breaking the speakers in slowly. I don't know how
long that process is... I've certainly enjoyed a volume that makes the
heart beat a little stronger. I've also gotten better FM reception with the HK, than with my old Panasonic and programming stations with a remote control, what a treat!!
Paul S., NJ



Thoroughly impressed with speakers! I'll be definetly adding the towers, centers and sub when the time comes.
Keep it up.
Teon K., PA



Right now I'm listening to my brand new M3TI's and let me tell you, they sound crisp!!! You have one satisfied client!!! Sincerely,
Lucien S., NJ



The stands went together fine. The M3ti's sound great freestanding. With a well-matched Hsu Research STF-1 subwoofer, I believe I have about the best $600 stereo-speaker setup one could assemble.

I am recommending your web site to friends, and they're coming by to listen.

Speakers, then stands, were delivered faster from Axiom than anything else I've bought online.
Rod O., NM

The speakers sound great! I am using them as monitors in my DJ/production studio.Cheers
Chris L., PA


Your little speakers really enhance my A/V system. On another
note, the abundant information in your written articles surely helped me to understand how to set up my home theater/music studio. I\'ve been running a Kenwood KR-6170 Rcvr (it\'s still fine) and Sansui speakers that I bought 35 years ago. Without your help, I may still be listening to what you know comes out of that old gear.
Jerry H., NC



I received the speakers as promised. Everything was fast and smooth. I am very happy with performance of the speakers. The fit and finish of the speakers is also excellent. I think your product is a great value.
Luther J., MN

As usual Axiom has far exceeded my expectations! The M3ti's sound terrific with my Stereo Denon Amp & Tuner! Now the only problem I have is... Do I listen to my Axioms in the office or do I listen to the Axioms in the Home Theater???
David F., OH

Thanks very much Amie, I was extremely happy to see that the order got shipped out the same day that I ordered them and was pleasantly surprised that I received them the following day. And you follow-up message really shows that Axiom's believes in providing good customer service.

Now that's great service that other OEM's and vendors can learn from !

Let's not forget to mention the amazing speakers, definitely great sound and the speakers are quality built. I will be looking at getting additional speakers down the road and will be recommending Axiom to my family and friends. thanks again,
Art, ON

Yes, our M3ti speakers arrived and we are most definitely enjoying them.

We had a pair of Bookshelves with 10 woofers that just died of foam rim-rot after 20 years of service. However, even when new they didn't sound as good as your (now our) M3ti's.

I researched on the Web, not wanting to just buy something on sale. Your units are recommended by quite a few experts and enthusiasts alike. The reviews by Doug Schneider were especially compelling.

We are looking forward to many years of good listening.
Neil H., WI

Thank you for following up.

The service your company provides is incredible.

I wish I received the same level of service with everything I bought.

The speakers are very good so far however expecting even greater sound once they are completely broken in. Once the speakers are broken in if the detail of sound is anything close to the level of service I have received it will prove to be one of the best deals I have ever made. Thanks again,
Michael D., QC



So far I am very satisfied with the speakers I've ordered, not as though you need another testimonial though from the looks of your website. Thanks,
Charlie L., ON

Thank you so much for the excellent customer service.
I love the speakers and the fact that I received them so quickly. Great speakers from a great company. Thanks so much.
Steve L., AZ



They look great and sound even better!

I have a friend that recently remodeled his basement and upgraded his home theater. He is going to be jealous!

Thank you for your very quick service (4 days!!!) and very high quality product. I look forward to many long hours of listening enjoyment.
Randy L., MI

It is such a pleasure to deal with a company that cares so much about its customers and makes them feel that their business is sincerely valued.
What a contrast to some of the experiences I've had with various vendors here in the western U.S. who view their customers simply as an inconvience.
Every interaction I've had with Axiom from my initial product and technical quieres to the actual purchase process has been a pleasure.

You've got one extremely satisfied customer here in California!

Cheers and best regards to you Amie and the rest of the Axiom team!
Aaron R., CA



I appreciate the extraordinary customer service that you have provided to me. The brackets are great. The degree of articulation in 3D speaker placement has made a huge difference in the sound of my system for SACD's (I actually have the 30 degree offset now). I just purchased a pair of M3Ti's and you guys can add me to the huge list of audiophiles that sing their praises. I have never heard anything even close to these for under a $1000. I look forward to doing business with you again in the future. Thanks again,
Kyle B., IL

I am really impressed with how good these little babies sound. Your company is a pleasure to do business with.
Charles R., VA


You guys did your usual great job. The stands I ordered this time were a perfect match to the speakers I ordered previously. Fast service, courteous, good price. Free shipping. What more can you ask for?
You guys are a great company. Love the speakers, love the stands. Love the service. Go Canada!
Leonard A., TN


Thanks. I received the order on Thursday and am impressed with the build and sound quality of the m3ti's. Thanks again,
Stephen C., FL

Thanks for your message and yes, I received my Axiom’s yesterday. I am very pleased with them – they sound and look great - and want to congratulate you and the Axiom team on such outstanding service. I never believed that buying a pair of speakers from a company halfway across the world could be so easy and quick. Before I ordered the speakers from Axiom I also ordered a CD player from a company within Switzerland - you have managed to beat the Swiss company with ease, as I have yet to receive the CD player! Thanks again Best wishes
Rob H., Switzerland




I was pleasantly surprised when I first listened to the Axiom M3Ti. It has the
qualities of a much more expensive speaker, at a more than reasonable price. The speakers are very easy to listen to. I enjoy the detail and clarity that it brings out for my music and home theatre use. The M3ti delivers in all the listening range. It has tight and satisfying bass, an exceptionally smooth and clear midrange, and finally rounds out with an amazingly crisp and detailed high end. I love the way the M3Ti sounds. My best audio purchase yet. Thanks Axiom for making a wonderful product!
Luan V., BC




I received my Boston Cherry M3Ti's today without a hitch; I called Fedex and they left the speakers without my signature and everything is great!  The speakers are beautiful to look at and they more importantly sound beautiful!  It is so true what the reviewers say about these speakers.  I am not an audiophile in the serious sense of the word but I do know what sound I like and these speakers produce nice clean sound with surprising bass!  I am very satisfied and will tell family and friends about your wonderful speakers.  What a find!  You are truly good neighbors to the north!!!!  Best wishes for much success! Sincerely,
Mike C., NY

Thanks, shipping was incredibly fast. I hooked up the speakers to my Rotel CD-player and a vintage Marantz receiver and they sound amazing.
Stunning bass response and imaging from a couple of little bookshelf-sized speakers. I'm very happy I chose Axiom, and won't hesitate to recommend them to my acquaintences.
Ian B., OH




What can I say but that I am extremely satisfied with the MT3i speakers ! I believe they are absolutely one of the best small speakers around...and are an exceptional value for their very modest cost. Lots of excellent performance for the money and they make great home theatre speakers too! A big sound-stage in a very small package. Thank you AXIOM for producing such a great product at a great price!
Dennis J., CA




The M3 Ti is a wonderfully musical speaker. It has all the sound performance and quality construction that other high-end bookshelf speakers have but with half the pricetag! These speakers DEFINETLY allow you to have your cake and eat it too. Bravo Axiom!
Lee W., Ottawa



I've known about Axiom's since about 1993...a punk friend of mine couldn't recommend his Axiom 3's (or 2's...it's been a while) any higher for sound reproduction. I've thought about Axiom's on and off when thinking about speakers ever since, but hadn't had occasion to buy.

I was recently in the market for a pair of bookshelves to replace some floor models I have in a smallish room, and when I tested out some M3tis and bought them on the spot.
So, there you go....the sales cycle on your products can sometimes be over ten years, but I'm happy to have finally purchased a pair of your excellent speakers. I'll be adding to the setup, when space and budget allow for it.

(have driven by the factory in Dwight many times...on the way to the park)
Ken T., ON



Thank you, Amie! We love them.
Katharine G., CA



tres satisfait de ce produit
Gerald B., QC


I've always been a skeptic about product reviews on the internet, and when I read the online reviews for the M3's, the speaker seemed too good to be true for the price range. Having spent a few hours auditioning them in the store and at home, I BELIEVE THE HYPE! The M3 is a man among boys as far as loudspeakers in its price range. With every kind of music and movie soundtrack, it simply blew other brands out of the water. A FANTASTIC sounding speaker that I have given my strongest recommendation to friends about.
FrankW., NS



I was worried about ordering speakers which I never listened to. I read many reviews about the M3Ti speakers and decided to take a leap of faith. I am a novice at home theatre systems but when I plugged these speakers in I realized how exceptional these speakers were. My leap of faith was not in vain. I am extremely happy with my choice.
Desroy F., NJ



Excellent. There is little else to say, absolutely astounding performance for the price, beautiful appearance, lively full sound, wonderful imaging.
David B., GA


Beautiful! Uncompromising quality, value, and performance. The M3Ti's sounded great right out of the box. I could use words like, clarity, balanced, refined, transparent, but the highest compliment I can give is to simply say, they moved me.... I'm still smiling! Highly recommended.
David S., VA



Thank you. I set up the speakers last night and am enjoying them. The Axioms are replacing an old pair of floor-standing Allison CD8s; the M3s don't have the same bass (as expected) but they do have a clean, natural sound. This is my first purchase of audio equipment in 20 years. I have some placement tweaking to do but they fit nicely in our family room. I bought them based on the reviews on audioholics.com. I hope to use more of your products in a home theater system to be built in the near future.I like your website - it's easy to use and has lots of useful information. Regards,
David C., VA



Thank you so much for the excellent customer service. I love the speakers and the fact that I received them so quickly. Great speakers from a great company.
Thanks so much.
Steve L., AZ 


Initially, I purchased these to have a good starter surround system in my 12'x20' family room, but when I coupled them with the VP 100 and QS8's, I found it easy to balance the whole audio atmoshpere without upgrading these front speakers to the M50's I had planned on upgrading to... that would just be overkill without adding any quality sound atmosphere!!!

"My new M2i loudspeakers just arrived, and I couldn't be happier. I feared that switching from Von Schweikert VR4's to smaller speakers was going to be a big disappointment. However, to my pleasant surprise, these little guys are extraordinarily musical and have far more low end that I anticipated…and they haven't even been broken in yet. Wow!"
-- David Spelman, Founder + Artistic Director
New York Guitar Festival



Finally, I have "highs" that are crisp and clear without any annoying harshness.
Jeff L., NY

Great product! Nothing close to it at twice the price. Thanks for processing the order and getting it out so quickly.
Alan D., CA

Our speakers sound great!!  Teamed with our subwoofer-sound is awesome!!! We will definintely buy again from Axiom!!
Raymond L., MN


I received the M2i speakers today. My little system--Cambridge a300 amp-8inch Ar sub-M2i! I listened to Carmina Burana (Telarc) and it sounded wonderful. The old speakers Boston Acoustics HD10. The HD10s much too laid back.
I am very pleased, thank you.
George J., CA




Just wanted to let you know how happy I am with the M2i speakers. I've had many stereos in the past 30 years, but none of them can compare to this one, thanks to the M2i. The sound is so clean, with such a wide sound stage, it is just unbelieveable!! A friend of mine who is a dj was over and he said he has never heard sound this clean. I have to listen to my music collection all over again, because Iam hearing things I've never heard before !!
CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH!!!!
Mike P., NY




I'm really happy I tried my luck with you!

Yesterday I finally tested M2i's with a good sub. I found myself listening my mouth open. Whatta sound!! Clear, neutral, airy and _soft_ YEEEES! I was smiling the whole day.

I _definitely_decided_to_keep_the_m2i's._ Thanks! Once again.

All the best for You and the whole company! Wish you a LOT of success in business. I try to do my part here in Finland. I really want to share the joy of dealing with you! I know I should support the Finnish loudspeaker industry which is not bad at all either (just to mention Amphion, Chorus, Crevasse(GREAT but too expensive and big), Genelec, Gradient & Penaudio for example). But still I chose you. Liked your speakers more and have to say I had quite a demands for them! And saved a lot by doing that!

In the end a list of speakers m2i's compeed with (and beated, though not in realtime comparison side by side but in the long run):

Finnish ones:

Amphion Argon IIs
Chorus 662 (excellent little speaker considering it's size, but nothing in comparison to Argon IIs and I didn't choose them but m2i Genelec 8030, 8040 (highly praised new studio monitors-didn't find them but dull and 2-dimensional though neutral, nothing to be excited with) Gradient Prelude(=600euros) and Lauri (1500euro high-end-Prelude made to Japan with different type marking (Lauri only in Finland) Penaudio Rebel II (thin, airy, sharp without sub (like m2i's) costs
1500euros)

and international companies products:

B&W 705 (The last rival of m2i's, a good compromise for all music but something extra in piano's middle octaves) 1200euros Duntech PCL-10/2 (strange, exciting, coloured) Dynaudio 42,52SE, S1.4 (ADORED the treble, unbeatable beauty but somehow the orchestral records made them beg for mercy) Mackie 662 (never get a pair to really test but sounded good in bad acoustics of the shop) MonitorAudio S1 (metallic, sharp, look TotemAcoustics) ProAc Responce 1sc (quite ok, not neutral but great with choir-music) TotemAcoustics Model-1, Dreamcatcher (too sharp, airy, didn't like titanium tweeters until yesterday afternoon in my living room ;) Quad 21L (great quality and price, little boomy, had a dynaudio 52se at the same time, treble shaded compared to that)

Quite a list I'd say.

Million thanks and bows to designer of m2i's!
And for you for the extraordinarily good service!

Yours,
Timo L., Finland



The new M2i is now the rear center channel of my home theater. Sounds great, just like I knew it would! :-)

Thank you for your great products and your quick and friendly service.A very satisfied customer,
Randy L., MI



We did receive our Axiom speakers and we are in LOVE with them! It is hard to believe such a fantastic, beatifully balanced wall of sound is coming from those two small speakers! If you close your eyes it is very easy to imagine that the vocalist and musicians are in the room with you. We are rediscovering our CD collection, anxious to see how each one sounds with the new speakers....fantastic! I will definately be recommending these to anyone and everyone. Thanks for such a great product!!
Arleen Z., PA

thank you for the note. i am excited to hook them up and listen to what
i've purchased. so far, axiom has impressed me. now for the true test.
Rick



Thank you very much. I look forward to hearing the M2i giving the great reviews received from prestigious magazines.
Best regards,
Eveline P., QC

Just want to say thanks for an awesome product! I got my M2i today and I am greatly impressed. No matter what genre I listen to, there is no coloration! Highs are clear and detailed and the midrange is powerful and clean. I am only 16 and so my budget is very limited, therefore I was extremely skeptical about buying loudspeakers without hearing them over the internet. My fears melted away when I set up my M2is and put on a copy of The Patriot. The Axioms blew away my old Kenwoods that were twice the size and the outstanding maple cabinet and aluminum woofers look great next to my TV. I can turn them up as loud as I want and there is hardly any distortion. I will be coming back for my center, rears, and possibly the sub. I had them broken in two hours after fedex dropped them off and I was at the door waiting for them. I can't believe the sound I got for 250 bucks! Thanks!
Mike P., ON



Best speaker on the market today for all around performance.
Adds great sound for all your audio needs movies or music. #1 in my books.
Mike C., ON



I purchased a pair of the Axiom Audio M2TI's and one of the VP50 center channel speakers and was immediately impressed. These under $300.00 (USD) speakers blow away the competition in the $300.00 to $500.00 price range. They have a realistic quality to them that others in this price category cannot compete with.

My CD collection runs the entire spectrum of music, from classical to rock & roll. While all sound great with the Axiom's, they really shine with jazz vocals. Legendary performers such as Ella Fitzgerald, Louie Armstrong and Shirley Horn appear to be live in my listening room with the Axioms.

I am so impressed with these speakers that I have decided to dump my B&W DM601's in favor of a pair of the M22TI's or the M40TI's. I have presently positioned the $430.00+ B&W's as my rear channel speakers. Incredibly they have been replaced as mains by my $240.00 dollar Axioms!

While these speakers excel with music, they are also outstanding with home theatre. Over the past few years I have listened to less and less music, and only watched movies about once per week. I now find myself wanting to watch movies or listen to music every night because of the great sound I'm hearing from the M2's and the VP50. The scary thing is, these speakers aren't even broken in yet! I anticpate even better sound once they are completely broken in.

I would recommend these speakers to anyone who wants a great loudspeaker at a great price. Axioms are not for people who like to waste gobs of money on their equipment, nor are they for people who choose name recognition over performance. Axiom Audio loudspeakers are for people who simply want to enjoy music and movies. Do yourself a favor and check them out.
Michael H., Fresno



I must say, Amie, your company is a real pleasure to deal with. Also, what I first heard when I tried my speakers was the distinct lack of the artificial brightness and brittle quality I noticed in some Athenas I recently tried. My ears got really fatigued fast with those. I prefer the signal as unaffected as possible. The Axioms really are gorgeous looking, as well. All the best,
Ken S., MA


Excellent look and great sound.
