Hi, I'm looking at upgrading my speakers, and I'm pretty much set on Axioms from reading rave reviews, and after seeing there great prices. I'm in a small town in central PA, and I have nowhere to audition many brands of speakers. My only options around here are Circuit City and Best Buy. I've had my HT setup for less than a year, and I'm running small Cerwin Vega speakers now, and I've never heard many high end speakers, so I'm pretty sure I'll be very happy going to Axioms from what I have now.
I THINK right now I'm going to go with the M60ti's for fronts, the M80ti's look very nice...but an extra $300 is getting pretty steep. Has anyone auditioned these 2 speakers side by side? What are your opinions...are the M80's that much better sounding than the M60's?
For surrounds...what would be best? The QS8 is what they have in there "package" deals. Is this the best choice, or would something like an M22 bookshelf make an even better surround?
For the center, I'm pretty much set on the 150, is this the right choice...or would something like the 100 suit better?
Also...for now I'm keeping the Cerwin sub until my funds recover from this purchase. In the future I also would like to upgrade to 6.1, when I do this...do i want another surround speaker, or do I want a center speaker?
Right now everything is going to be run off of a Yamaha HTR-5460. I also have about a 50/50 listening between movies and music. Thanks for any suggestions!
