Axioms and Ascends


Just kind of taking a poll on how people think these compare to other speakers. Are all the "better than speakers costing three times as much" reviews accurate?

Axioms have great quality and value. I am just breaking in a pair of M3ti in a small bedroom and am happy so far. But, then I don't have great expectations and would use them in a main system without a sub. They will go flat to 70 Hz and are -3 dB at about 65 dB (in room). I found them to be bright only at high volumes but in the bedroom I will not be playing them as loud. They stike me as a great near field monitor. They will bring out the best and the worst of recordings. My bias is towards a silk dome tweeter, especially for high volumes.
edit: "...would NOT use them in a main system without a sub." Sorry for the confusion.
