Kruncher, thanks for the invite ! However after talking to Axiom again, if i didn't like the speakers at all it would only cost me $125 to have them all shipped back. So tommorow I am going to place my order. I am stoked beyond belief!!
The last time I made a purchase site unseen was for a $1800 paintball gun back in 2004. I wasn't disappointed at all. I'm hoping this choice will be just as good. In addition, I will then be able to let others audition my system if they want to. I'll be sure to take pics of my man caveonce they arrive and are set up, and give an overview of how I like them. In financial times such as these, being able to save $1000, get an additional two surrounds, AND support my Canadian brothers and sisters when people are being laid off, really made this leap of faith a no brainer. If these sound as good as the older Energy C500s I'll be very pleased.

Congrats and here's hoping You could still take Kruncher up on his invite anyway, it is a good way to meet other 'Speaker Geeks' as my wife calls us. Then you could still cancel if they are not for you and save the $125.

Those M60's should rock that room! Anxious to hear your feedback once they are a rocking.. Make sure you recalibrate everything once the new speakers arrive. Do you have a Radio Shack SPL meter?

Welcome ghost271,
Congrats on your purchase! I hope you enjoy your Axiom speakers as much as I do.

No worries. As we all know, what's most important is what you hear in your room anyway, and what better way than to order and try them out? We know that you're not likely to be disappointed, though it does happen on rare occasion. I'm sure that you'll be enjoying boo-tiful music, Ghost.

I like the tight knit group you guys have here. Just finished reading a ton more reviews during my break on my iPhone, and another old school HiFi coworker of mine was telling me how good Axiom are. That meant a lot to me considering he's been an audiophile probably since i was born. So like a kid at Christmas, im eagerly awaiting my shift to end so i can go home and place my order. Thanks Again guys!

Are you going to order A stock or B stock from the factory outlet (10% off)? If you go with the B stock from the factory outlet there is usually a wait period involved (2-3 weeks approx). Good luck!

I like the tight knit group you guys have here. Ghost, Yes, there are a couple 'tightly wound' folks here, but most are more loosely wound, with a few even a few channels short of full surround if you get my meaning. My myriad, inane queries often put me into the latter category, though I do appreciate everyone's patience.

Well I was going to order A Stock, but as I was trying to finish my payment method via Paypal, I get this message
'This transaction is invalid. Please return to the recipient's website to complete your transaction using their regular checkout flow.'
I cut up my Visa awhile ago to prevent minial spending and have all my info except I forgot to write down my CVD number, so I can't just pay directly with my card now. Hopefully its just a Paypal error and I'll try again tommorow. Otherwise I guess I'm going to have to order another card and then wait another few weeks >:(
