    Axiom Audio Onwall Speakers & Amplifiers

    The Axiom amp works a bit differently and more uniquely. It also uses a linear supply which has advantages over most switching supplies for increased headroom and reduced noise.

    Denon Announces AVR-3806 and AVR-4306 Receivers!

    It's not by choice. Pioneer doesn't seem to value the web as much as Denon or Yamaha. They still have their priorities focused on Print Magazines, with have much lower readership and often dismal product coverage.

    Axiom Audio Onwall Speakers & Amplifiers

    Sheep; Though I love Canada, I could never handle the cold 8 months out of the year. I am used to living in Florida where the water for the most part is 80-90 degrees almost half the year :) However, in my experience the hospitality and demeanor of the Axiom crowd and local neighbors is...

    Interesting on Mars......

    You know if it did appear that close to us, it would likely block Marvin the Martains view of Venus forcing him to use the Uranium Pew-36 Explosive Space modulator to destroy our planet. Let's hope it doesn't come to that :p

    Speaker break-in??

    On that point, I will stongly have to disagree with you. Human hearing is inconsistant and often unpredictable since perception and biases will almost always play a big role. Test equipment doesn't suffer these biases. The trick is to know what measurements correspond to what we are hearing.

    Speaker break-in??

    Tweeters actually don't break in. This has been confirmed time and again by many leading loudspeaker designers, Acousticians such as Dr. Toole and even our own Resident Loudspeaker Engineer Mark Sanfilipo and former loudspeaker reviewer Patrick Hart whom both measured no differences in driver...

    Speaker break-in??

    You're pretty much dead on for the most part. Woofers do tend to loosen up a bit after a few hours of play but don't forget that anything that can "break in" must also "break out". So it is a bit of a misnomer. Tweeters do NOT break in despite what many audiophiles claim. I had many...

    Hot Separates System Recommendation Tip

    Nobody is denying cables can sound different. However, only poorly designed cables are sonically distinguisable. My point was you should address more obvious issues with your system/room and not try to resolve issues with cable magic. Its likely that the amp you purchased handles low...

    Frequency Response of Axiom Speakers

    I thought I would chime in here to clarify some of the misinformation in this thread. The truth of the matter is the Axiom measurements were conducted anechoically thus the very low frequencies aren't accurately represented since the chamber isn't big enough. Please note our comments on...
