But if you really want to be cool, call them Lee Marvin Power Blocks. grin

I could see why ST could not be used in a direct reference to Spinal Tap....
but even if it was just called the Axiom Eleven it would be wickedly funny and so many people would get the joke. Great Idea!

Just like us today, it's amazing what they would do to find & keep the perfect sound. I kinda like tweaking better than surgery...

Thank you. Thank you. That's quite the complement.

Loc: It's all about the location.
Here's my final entry before making some silly ones...

AXIOM DSP1000
AXIOM DSP1250
AXIOM DSP1500


...or just DSP1000 ect without "AXIOM".

....and now for some serious suggestions

THE MOE1000
THE CURLY1250
THE LARRY1500


(sidenote...the CURLY1250 was recently replaced with the SHEMP1250 although many people appear to prefer the CURLY over the SHEMP.

My Final entry...

Axiom PS1000
Axiom PS1250
Axiom PS1500

PS = Power Series

so, this will be the 1xxx series, in future with better technology, they can continue the name with 2xxx series etc.
