When the new Axiom subs are introduced, I might trade in my 800v4 black vinyl oak for real black oak. It's a big decision for me because Ian built that sub, wrote the 'nad tickler/gut punch DSP code for it and then tested in the chamber. He built custom artwork for the amp panel with the 'nad tickler/gut punch lettering. He then dragged Andrew onto the factory floor for driver signing. It's real special. Every time I turn it on, I give it a little pat and a wink.

I'm telling you, you don't need ALFRs but you do need an 800.
