I received my EP350 about 2 weeks ago and I noticed that the driver is different then what is pictured.

The sub sounds awesome to me, I was just wondering if there was a change.

The sub pictured shows a black cap in the center of the sub and mine looks just like that of the EP500 driver.

Just wondering

Hey Josh, welcome, make sure you take my Axiom Polls on my website if you haven't already I'm curious about your question also, I got my Axiom speakers from the Factory Outlet about 6 months ago and mine looks just like the EP350 on the product page, with the black center on the woofer. Man I hope they didn't improve the woofer design, although I like my EP350, that would upset me

I know the EP350 says it has an Aluminum Woofer, and I assume the EP500 does also, but the product page does not come right out and tell you that, well I guess you got lucky, maybe they put EP500 guts in your EP350?

Yes, Josh, welcome, but keep it quiet about your sub. They apparently sent you by mistake one of the test samples for the new EP400(which has by coincidence been suggested in another thread here)which uses the EP500 driver in the EP350 enclosure. Just kidding, of course, and have no real idea, but Axiom does occasionally make running changes without announcement.

Thanks for the replies guys... I am in love with the set up. I kind of wish I would have gotten the 60's though...

Upgraditis.... again

I wonder if it is just cosmetic? The EP500 woofer does look cooler in the product page pic...

ps: you had me going there JohnK about the EP400....

My EP-350, which I received 2 weeks ago, also has the "no black center" that the EP-500/600 has. They probably just haven't updated the pictures. They all use the same size driver, so...

Surely they don't all use the same DRIVER! If so, then the 350's just become a significantly more interesting option...

The only way to be sure is to take the driver out and compare it to Axiom's pictures of the EP5/600 driver...

Does the 350 look the same as the pictures in the other respects? (ie, the general size, gorilla ports, etc)
