    Speaker upgrade for basic system

    Bryan Go to the axiom forums and see if there is anyone in your area who will let you audition the speakers you are considering (in their home). I have the vp150/m22s myself and they are perfect for my needs (yes the towers would be nice but did not fit my budget or the idea of being a good...
