    Polk LSi, Axiom and other bookshelves comparo

    i understand where you are coming from Mike - but i figured that with these internet brands is that they lack markup. the fact is, the M22 are always said to be "worth" several hundred more than their retail price - talking to Alan Lofft (Axiom resident expert) - he mentioned that if the Axiom...

    Polk LSi, Axiom and other bookshelves comparo

    john, i agree with you that the midrange could be improved on the lsi - i know the drivers are similar to that of the RTi, im not sure if they are the exact same though (although the similar surrounds around the driver does make me suspicious of the RTi and LSi resemblance). however, in my...

    Polk LSi, Axiom and other bookshelves comparo

    well i find them worth the 700$ asking price considering speakers around that price range and above were not up to par, in my humble opinion. of course, if u ask me what i really think of speaker prices - i would say that ALL speakers are OVERPRICED. Speaker parts (woofer, cabinet, tweeter...

    Polk LSi, Axiom and other bookshelves comparo

    wouldnt you say that it is a paradox when u say that the LSI are bang for the buck but then contradict yourself by saying that they are overpriced? no one ever said that these are the end-all of the speaker market.... would u like to tell me a speaker that is the be-all, end-all of the...

    atleast from my experience, the lsi7 were the best hand down for the buck. very well priced at 700$ a pair - the lsi7 gave me the sound i was looking for without breaking the back (well it did hurt, just not as much). i dont want to bring the fry's price into this comparo too much because it...

    I posted this on theSpot board... I wanted to share it with you all... enjoy the (rather long) read!! ---- Alright... I have listened to both in my own setup and I tried my best to equalize everything from tweeter height to separation distance and distance from wall. Here are my final...
