Well it's up there! Sorry I didn't mean to sound rude or anything it's just that there are so many different brands.

I really like my new axiom speakers, they sound great and they are sold direct from the manufacturer so in the end you don't pay for the middle man (markups for speakers are usually huge)! Plus being from Canada they were easy to order, free to ship, no duties and I received them the next day that they were shipped!

Furthermore, I ordered "factory seconds" which have 10% off and are supposed to have minor cosmetic defects. This is worth it since I didn't found any defects (and from what I've read, most don't see any defects at all). They have great service, 30 day in home trials...

I also like my Athena Audition but they don't make them anymore.

Nate, you should consider editing your post so people who only read the first page don't come and make another remark like that. People can be touchy on certain subjects.

No, I read every post – there’s just no reason nor excuse for ANYONE to use that word EVER in ANY context.

And if my statement makes me “touchy” consider I’m a 46 year old white male who has 0% tolerance for people who preach ignorance, intolerance & hatred.

that's good. that's real good. and I respect that. I also encourage and commend you. but understand in no way was I "preaching" hatred. you speak against ignorance and intollerance but then leave a comment like that. the first word that came to mind was "jack-ass" (which I'm sure speaks for u also) so if u did not mean for it to then you understand how I felt. and if you did mean for it to sound like that then I want you to know I have 0% tolerance for hypocrites

Reading the verbiage of this post, with your obvious lack of grammar & writing skills, I thank you for proving my point.

All the more power to you then. I hope you don't think I'm insulting you or am in any way preaching anything wrong nor is the OP. It was a bad expression to use and he understands and seems apologetic. Let's stop while we're ahead.

really? because I thought your point was the 0% tolerance thing. the only other point you have made is that I was wrong for saying that. in which case verbiage would prove nothing.

Natedog,

I edited the post that you didn't have time to. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that it was used out of innocent ignorance. Please refrain from using phrases like that again.

As long as the thread continues on topic, it will remain here. However, if it strays even a little, I will close it.

Carry on...
