I'm set on the Epic 80, 7.1 (HG Cherry) and cannot wait.

Initially, to save some money, my plan is not to replace my existing sub, which at the time I bought it a few years ago was a real workhorse... It's an Earthquake Supernova MKV-12, a 75 lb monster that can really shake the room.

Despite all that, I'm wondering if it's a mistake not to upgrade the sub as well? The main factor driving the decision not to is cost, but I'm starting to wonder how much I'll miss out on by not having a sub that was built to integrate with the rest of the system.

I've got a < 2500 square foot enclosed room, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to be quite happy adding 7 Axioms to the room and retaining the existing sub. I'm sure there are others in this situation and I'd appreciate your own experiences/advice on integrating non-Axiom subwoofers into Axiom sound from the rest of the speakers.

Thanks for the input.

Jason
