dakkon,

Ivan here. We have toyed with the idea of bringing out a pair of monster towers capable of playing down to around 14 Hz. Though it may be more practical in many situations to just use a pair of M80s with two EP800s as this broadens your choices for room placement of the subs.

jakewash,

This is a good plan. In fact we can have this as an option in Customize Yours where you just select how many channels you want your amp to have.

Ian, just send me a 3 channel amp when you have one ready, I was hooked on the A1400-8 but couldn't afford one. wink

I'd like to see some more affordable, lower power than the A1400 series amps. Well, more affordable at least. wink

Ian(aka Ivan)it certainly was distressing when it appeared at first that dakkon was cheating on us and looking to a Russian manufacturer for a better speaker!

As to the possibility of using bigger and presumably much more expensive main speakers with ultra-low bass extension, as you point out, using separate subs for that purpose appears to be much more effective since they can be placed independently of the mains where the best locations for bass exist, which would rarely if ever be the same spots for best locating the mains.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

I'd probably like a 2 channel amp, but depends on the price.

They did offer one which many of us didn't like the price of.

Russian??? Wilson's are manufactured in Utah man.

If you ever get a chance to listen to a pair of Wilson's DO NOT pass it up.. They are pretty freaking amazing..... But then again they are around 30k$ a pair for their smaller L/R's not to mention the 100k$ monsters!!!....

Hence my asking or an Axiom option smile
