At Axiom, We Have One Passion

For over 30 years Axiom has been a research leader in establishing the science behind sound so you get the absolute best performance possible.The Axiom Research Laboratory, located in Dwight, Muskoka, Canada is one of the finest acoustic research facilities in the world and in many aspects replicates the acoustical laboratory at the NRC (National Research Council) in Ottawa, Canada where Axiom’s founder Ian Colquhoun spent many years. Following the original research conducted in the laboratory, all Axiom product designs are tested using the most rigorous real world double-blind listening tests which establish the connection between technical measurements and real listeners’ impressions of the products.

Axiom’s world class research facilities are equipped with the state of the art psychoacoustical testing equipment, including a power test room, an environment test chamber, a fully equipped electronics laboratory, and of course a full sized certified anechoic chamber—literally, a room with no echoes (pictured above). But it’s no ordinary room—lining all six walls of the chamber are large fiberglass wedges that absorb all reflections from the loudspeaker. These wedges are mounted to layered walls and the entire chamber sits on hundreds of springs. Pictured inside the chamber is an Axiom M22 bookshelf speaker, supported on a pedestal that can rotate to either side as well the microphone can move up and down. All these movements can be controlled automatically from the control room. This is where the initial design and frequency response of the M22 (which has received glowing reviews from a variety of critics and reviewers), was refined, measured, and fine-tuned by its designer, Axiom founder Ian Colquhoun.
