That 800 is a freakin monster

Hello guys!!! I received my order of M80s, VP150, QS8s and EP800 sub a week ago. I would like to put everyone's mind to rest regarding the EP800 as a comparison to other Axiom subs. It is a literal beast!!! It has the deepest, smoothest, clearest and clean sounding bass I have ever heard. And I have heard plenty. The sound is unbelievable. In my opinion, the EP800 is ahead of its time.

If your budget can handle the extra cost or if you can delay your purchase and save the extra cash to get the EP800, you will thank yourself a million times over. This sub will add sound to your audio system that will leave you, your family and friends with their mouths wide open.

Welcome Skin!

That is an awesome setup, congrats! If you are interested in taking any photos there is a gallery section at the bottom of the forum and will be showed in the Wall`O`Fame.

Wow! That's quite a system; sound AND that projector!

Thanks. Any input on where to buy screens in Canada? I live in Grand Bend (near London).

Thats going to be one heck of a system. Hmm... Grand Bend is only 1.5 hours from me. EP800... Hmm...

When everything arrives perhaps you'll have to make a visit to our beautiful beach town. A summer evening in Grand Bend, you could do alot worse. In fact, if there's anyone who gets their kicks and is a master at setting up home theatre, are versed in the denon 3808/audyssey setup and in programming the logitech 890 pro and want to spend a nice day in our home 2 minutes to a private beach, I'm willing to trade a day in said home and a dinner from our best local restaurant for their services. In fact, if there's enough interest maybe a little summer axiomite gathering for socializing and fun with a little HT setup on the side...

Well Stormin I'm glad I could be of service. I was in the same boat as you actually, I was really close to ordering the EP600 from the Factory Outlet when I didn't see the EP800 listed anywhere in there. I figured that being brand new and all they probably only made the 800 when someone special ordered it, and thus there probably weren't any 'odd' EP800's to discount through the Outlet. But then JC came to my (our) rescue in my other thread and told me to call him direct to order the 800 through the Outlet. THANK GOD!!!

Although I'm quite sure the both of us would have been more than happy with our EP600's, I know I would have always had that little tick in the back of me head everytime I watched a movie, or listened to my favorite CD that the sound could have been 'that much better' with the EP800! Well now we won't have to worry about any of that. You're right, that 10% (+ the additional 5% for the HT purchase) truely does make all the difference. It makes it a no-brainer to go with the 800, where as if we couldn't get the discount the 600 starts looking a whole lot more attractive!

It seems we aren't in such a minority anymore though. EP800 owners are popping up left and right anymore! I guess if we truely want to separate ourselves from the norm, we're going to have to purchase a SECOND EP800. Only two in that club so far (right?). Well.... I may have to wait another year or three before I can justify caughing up another $2000 dollars for another bass speaker. There are plenty of other things on my list for now.

In the mean time, me and my 'single' EP800 will get aquainted with each other!

I really wish I could have swung four EP800s. Ha ha.

Damn. You'd be really, really strong.
