Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Play "where's the sub?"

ok, maybe a subwoofer table could keep your drinks mixed. But what is going to keep them on the table? Anytime I get in the habit of putting things on top of my EP350, they up end on the floor when I start listening to anything. An EP600 like coffee table would have your drinks on the floor before the first song is over or 5 minutes into a movie, hehehe.

That Thunder Table is a good looking table to boot I must say. That would get plenty of WAF points for you married guys. I bet that would be a good seller. Or better yet, twin end tables, each with its own subwoofer on each side of your couch. Imagine a pair of subs surrounding you (say a pair of EP500s), thundering on each side of the couch. The bonus is you wouldn't have to run wires through the floor or anything since they would be closer to the wall in most cases (at least in my house they would be wired with the surrounds).

Speaking of "where's the sub" how many remember this post from a few months back. Never mind the coffee table ...

That guy must have read the mapleshade catalog. It tells you all your electronics will sound better without the metal covers on them.

How about this solution to hiding a subwoofer?



Read the description and the Q&A section, too.

Here are the construction photos of the above-pictured Death Star Subwoofer

I sometimes forget that the WAF is so important to some people. Luckily mine likes big speakers and subwoofers too. If I were to stick a new EP600 next to the SVS in our living room she would have her CD's in hand ready to try it out and throw a party.

He must be pulling our legs. No such woman exists...
My wife almost went orgasmic when I talked about the possibility of Monitor Audio's in-wall speakers where she would not see anything. When I mentioned the only thing visible would be the sub, she responded by saying "well maybe we don't need, that can you hide it somewhere?."
Ahhhrgg!

Wow, I never thought I'd actually see one of these. Supposedly, the sphere is the perfect design for a subwoofer enclosure. Not the most space efficient however, but very stylish (IMO). However, it would NEVER pass the WAF. She'd think I had lost my mind. But if she can have her "I Love Lucy" paraphanalia, I can have my Star Wars .
I do, however, already have my Mirage subwoofer that is essentially a rectangle with piano gloss finish. I would need a glass top with Speaker Floats to allow it to be used as a coffee table, though.

Just disguise one as a disco ball and suspend it from the middle of the ceiling!

Or a really nice globe in the corner.
