    They were ok, I heard them several months ago, and left going "that's it?" For the money you could do better In my opinion. If you were to come across a pair used for a good price, then go for it. But new... I would look elsewhere.

    Used. $3995 and local in rosewood.

    Not sure where to put it but I've been thinking about it.

    The brystons I heard were paired with simaudio moon, so I'm left wondering if it was poor pairing. They get rave reviews, had great bass, but not the best sound staging I've heard.

    I was told by my dealer they sound best paired with bryston gear (go figure). And are a more neutral speaker.

    The thing that worries me is their size. In person they are pretty large

    They are quite large. Might be too big for a kitchen system Joey :smile: Bryston holds its value, I don't see why you couldn't get your money back if it doesn't work out.

    I had axiom years ago... Seemingly neutral speaker but there's more than simply having a flat FR response. The brystons seem to be just that, it is a speaker built to FR chart.

    Axiom Audio. I was on a trip with my son's scout troop last summer to Algonquin Provincial Park. Driving, up ahead I see a sign poking out from the edge of the tree line that has a familiar logo on it. It was Axiom Audio. Their facility is literally in the middle of the Canadian wilderness. Totally random sighting which I was not expecting to see.

    I had the smaller version called the mini T. They had some big bass but, I did not dig the house sound. The highs I felt were off as well as the midrange punch that I like. The T might be a different animal though but, I thought they had the same tweeter as the Mini T

    Double tweeters, double mid range, triple bass woofers

    Not sure how that changes things.
