I would suspect there to be many reasons why they are not marketed for 700W, first reason that comes to mind is that far too many people actually believe that those specs mean something and would pass over buying them thinking they would need 700W to make the M80s work at their best, when in fact they work equally as well with much, much less.

From an engineering stand point most everyday items are spec'd at much less than what they have been engineered to with stand for liability reasons.

Axiom needs to sell the special 700w version for only $4,999.95.

I wonder what amps were used for those M80 power handling tests before the A1400 class D series was developed?

I'm sure they could ship you the stickers for your M80's since you have the secret decoder ring.

I seem to remember someone mentioning Mcintosh amps but Brystons would make more sense.
