I have the following 7.1 Rocket setup 750/200/750/300/300/300/300. The two 300s in the rear are wired in phase as monopoles. In addition I have two 250s that I originally was going to use as the rears but for physical mounting reasons went with the rewired 300s. I keep the 250s around in the corners for multi-channel music. I power all this with a 755 and two M200s for the F/R and F/L.

I really, really like the Rocket sound. I upgraded from Klipsch Ref 3 series and although they were OK with HT movies I would literally be driven out of the room listening to music on them. The beauty IMHO of the 750s is how you can really push them and not get fatigued. If you want a bright in your face speaker look elsewhere.

I've been told the Axiom line is a brighter speaker although I've never heard them. The Rocket finish is the best I've ever seen on a speaker I believe the Axioms use vinyl. I'm obviously biased but I think the Rockets are in another league although when it comes to speakers everybody has a different opinion of what is best.

I'm a big fan of Internet Audio companies including Axiom. The bang for the buck and customer service you get from companies such as SVS, Outlaw and AV123 is just incredible. The down side for speakers is they can be difficult to audition but the pay off for the extra work is worth it.
