So I finally got my Onkyo prepro and get everything all hooked up and turn on the TV,cable box, the prepro. Yes...I got picture,so I push the button on the 1400-8 for the first time ever to get some sound and aWHAT.....not a bloody thing!


So I phone Axiom and get Brent and he can't believe it, so now I have to wait until wed. to see what they do. I noticed that they took the amp off the website now? What's with that?

I want my money back I think, too much money to gamble with.Not to happy!

I'm with ya. I'd totally stop "thinking" on it and just do it. It's a lot o' dough for something (anything) that gives you pause in hour #1.

Shawn, you'd be one of the pioneers in trying a class D design. Of course, remember what they said about the old west: the pioneers are the ones with the arrows in their backs.

I'm sure they'll do as you ask w/o question. They were above reproach when my Ep500 died in week #2. But, until they do, you should use the above qoute as your signature smile

Call them to see whats up. I'm sure they will explain it to you and make you feel better. It could be any number of things including simply parts are not in stock to fulfill orders or more seriously a design or parts issue that needs to get rectified before they ship any more units.

I called them last night and he said he would get back to me. Then he e-mailed me this morning and said to make sure it was on the 110 setting,not the 220.

I am not that much of an idiot and made damn well sure everything was hooked up right. I said I wanted my money back but haven't heard anything since. mad

Wow, you're not even going to give them a chance to replace/repair the amp?

No, I heard to many negatives now, I will go with a compatible component.
