I m running a Cary CAD 808 (Rocket 88) and a SLP 50 b pre-amp with Axiom M 80 ti. The Axiom are not a budget pair of speaker. They are exactly what you are looking for. Check www.audioshop.on.ca , they have a pair on sale now. Actually, i borrowed the Axiom from my Home Theater set-up to replace Totem Mani-2 that i didn t like for the same reason that you post in the last few days. I was running the Totem with a Musical Fidelity A300 integrated and did not like the upper midrange wich i find very harsh and fatiging. You will be able to run your low powered tube amp with the Axiom no problem. They are 96 db in 4ohms. Very efficient,superb imaging, tremendous bass and sweet midrange . The finish is remarkable for the price. They used to detail for $ 800 us 3 years ago and now the Axiom company realized the quality of that product and are marketing them for, i think, $ 1100 us. Still a bargain. You can even have a 30 days trial in home. You can go wrong. Try them and you will not called them budget speakers. Hope this will help in your quest for better sound. Best regards, Donat.
