What a wonderful review. And in there you clearly define the problem with reviews. There are two speakers that are shall I say equally as good as each other, but produce sounds in a different way. If you are a person who is looking for a more enveloping laid back and wrap yourself in the music, then you will side for the Axiom, where if you are one who is into pristine detail by the book, you will prefer the Legacy SE.

In most reviews you are given a judgement based on bias and influenced by conjecture as without knowing the tastes of the reviewer, you cannot tell if your experience will be the same.

I do like your review style as it gives me a point of reference to go by.
