Thanks for your question.
1) Axiom is a philosophical and mathematical term meaning "a universal truth".

2) Factory seconds are available at some of our retailers throughout Canada. You can contact the dealer nearest you to see if they carry seconds. Our factory seconds are rigourously tested for electronic excellence, so they sound as good as firsts, but they have encountered some sort of blemish, usually on the cabinet, during manufacturing. For this reason, they are not retailed online.
