Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater More Misformation about Axiom's!!!

Nice to see you on the forum Ian. I just wish it was to talk about all things audio instead of this sillyness.

I belong to many forums, and have owned many brands of speakers through the years. This type of stuff just seems so silly. Reminds me of my old AVSforum days, which is why I rarely login anymore. We all have a common interest here, Audio. When you attend the many Audio/Video conventions around the country, most of the owners respect each other, well maybe all except BOSE.

I don't see why Hugo has so much hate towards Axiom, and I'm still waiting for his factual basis for his statements. It is ok to cast opinions about a particular company, but if your just blowing hot air with no scientific basis, it means nothing. As soon as someone calls him in a tactful way, he bans them. They should change the name of that forum to Hugo's Utopia or whatever.

Anyway, I've read the entire thread mentioned, and I don't see how any of the Axiom folks are attacking Hugo, they are just asking sensible questions asking for the basis of his opinion. In fact, it seems just the opposite like the pot calling the kettle black. He is the one making statements about Axiom, not the other way around, and then he bans anyone that DARE question him, what a joke.

Paradigm and Axiom are both great speaker companies from the great white north. As long as I've been a member on the Axiom forum, we have always given Paradigm great respect. In some of the AB listening tests I've done, the Paradigm Studio line has been very similar to Axiom's lineup.

Hugh, come on man, get over yourself and join the rest of us that love this hobby. If you can't get over people that might have a different opinion than you, maybe you should look for some other way to relieve your obvious stress.

*update - I see now that he is again bashing Axiom on the above noted thread, and planning on closing it permately. How do people like that become moderators of a board, oh wait, he is the board.

It's all about responses... I like mine flat, both on-axis and off-axis!

Another Flockhart fan...

This guy is so power hungry in my opinion he is actually trying to close/censor whats said on this forum through bully tactics. I wonder what would happen if someone dares steps on his toes or tells him what he should or should not post on his forum...oh wait...how silly.

Well said Ian. I doubt he will take you up on your offer but I hope I am proven wrong. Its nice to see what a class act Axiom is and taking the high road and trying to make ammends with this narcissist and bully (my opinion not Axioms) . This is all over something so ridiculous watching it from the sideline.

As an Axiom customer I extend to you Hugh an olive branch . Please accept. No hard feelings. This situation is so highschool.

Hi: Thanks Ian very well said!! Some people are so insecure they can't handle a little criticism! The issue is being blown way out of proportion by Hugh it is very sad oh well nothing we can do here. Interesting before banning me he never answered my question about taking a tour of the plant(Axiom's) to see how the speakers were build! In a way I regret posting what happened here as it caused a bunch of aggravation to some people over a silly matter.

WOW Ian. Thanks, so much, for clarifying the entire situation. I simply cannot believe that someone would demand that a thread at another forum be closed and threaten consequences if it isn't. Shameful behavior.

Please say hi to Amie for me and tell her I miss her sense of humor. Happy holidays to you both.

Well put Ian. I think this is just fanboyism and a severe case of cognitive dissonance on part of Hugh.

You can't change prejudice you can only try.

Not unusual for a king to want to be emperor.

@ Hugh, if you are still reading this I have an idea for you. Don’t!

Also, in the future consider that what you say publicly directly reflects on the organization you represent. Had a simple member made your comments I doubt anyone would have noticed or cared. Keep in mind that one can voice displeasure with others and/or their products w/o being unprofessional, that way if they overreact they’re the ones that look bad and get talked about.

Now this is INSULT!!
