Frank, you really should take Curtis up on his offer.
Curtis doesn't own Axioms. He's an unabashed Ascend and Hsu fan, and is completely honest about it. But he really enjoys this hobby, is an evenhanded, fair, courteous, helpful poster, who is a welcome contributor at just about every forum related to this hobby (I say "just about" every forum because I don't believe he posts at EVERY forum
). I've seen him recommend brands other than Ascend and Hsu when appropriate.
I know he would LOVE to put the 600 through it's paces, and I, for one, would like to hear what he has to say about it. You, on the other hand, would get a friendly, knowledgeable, "expert" to help you learn how to optimally set up your system (I put the word "expert" in quotes because I don't know if Curtis would like the burden that goes along with that term. I know I wouldn't. Fortunately, for me, no one would ever label me as one.
)
Give it some thought, and PM Curtis if you'd like to avail yourself of his expertise.
