I have not listened to the AX with receivers - I don;t know what amp you are using - I used a basic Rotel RA 1 or 2 and AN's SET amps and a pretty bad NAD 320Bee. Still this should be less picky than other AN speakers being it's the bottom of the line from the company - They can also be placed free standing so you know - so close to wall or out into the room - I'd be curious where you find the best results - I listened to them in corners of a realtively narrow room about a foot from the back wall or so.
Well, I originally planned on auditioning the AZ series, but after talking to a few dealers and exchanging emails with audio note they felt the AX-Two would work best with my small ( 10x10) room and the az series might not work considering my positioning options. Also, dealer isnt exactly close so shipping would be alot more.


As far as using a receiver im not, ill be using a Cambridge Azur 540a which to me sounds much, much better than the Onkyo receiver i was using. And since the AX-two is substantionly cheaper than the az series, if i decide to buy a pair of ax-two's ill be able to try tubes with them. Still, id love to try the AZ-Two's in a bigger room more suited for them.
