I've spent months researching - and a ton of time on AVSForum. A good friend of mine who's very knowledgeable suggested looking at Axioms (I was ready to pull the trigger on B&W 6 series).
I've sent PM's to the three people listed in the hearing things section, but haven't heard back from any of them yet...hoping there might be someone else in this area on the site. I'm looking at the M60, VP150, adn QS8's. Thanks in advance.

Major, You have a very wise friend. Another option would be to PM Amie or Andrea (screen names) at Axiom, they sometimes have additional options that aren't on the list.

Major, I'm not on the axiom list but if you can't get hold of anybody I'd be willing to let you demo mine. I live in South Austin and I have M60's, VP150 2xQS8's and an EP500. I'm pretty busy with work these days, but I can work something out. Here's a couple of pics of my setup:

I don't think I have seen your system, very nicely done.

I realized that I hadn't actually posted any pics of my setup . I've put a whole series of the room before and after in the axiom community.

My wife loves red . Now it looks a lot more bright red on the pictures than it actually is.

All I can say is WOW....WhatFurrer was kind enough to let me stop by his place today and hear his setup (M60's, VP150, and QS8). I was just blown away. The speakers sound unbelievable - and pictures don't do them justice. I'll be calling tomorrow to put my order in for my set (as soon as my wife tells me what finish she likes best). I was very impressed with the quality of the vinyl (warm cherry is very, very nice looking). I can't wait to get these now. Axiom rocks!

Yes, the 60s are nice...but the 80s are even nicer . They are absolutely heavenly.
