Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: Just purchased Axiom M50's - My God do I need a new amp?

IMHO, you are using a bright speaker, and unless you turn up the volume to compensate for the fletcher-munson effect of low frequency loss at low volumes, this is what you get.
Also, the lack of a proper crossover on the midrange driver, An Axiom trademark, can cause some untideyness in the midrange.
A NAD amp may do the trick, they are rolled off and muffled sounding, but I would recommend and amp that is both rolled off and a generous in the bottom end.
A Jolida 1703 hybrid will do the trick.
Jolida recommends this hybrid for bright speakers.
It has a big bottom end, and is rolled off on top, just what you need.
It is a TUBE mosfet hybrid,, cheers
