Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater VP180 First Impressions

Oh, I didn't realize they completely did away with the trade-up program, only that they weren't trading up the VP1150 to the VP180.

That kinda sucks, the trade-up program was a really good thing. However I must say I can understand not being able to take a bunch of VP150's off of people's hands if they aren't going to be able to do anything with them. Which makes me curious... I wonder how many new customers buy the VP150 since the 180's release? While I understand that the 180 is on a whole new level as compared to the 150 (or 100), it is also such a big center channel that I don't see quite as many customers being able to purchase it as those that had purchased the 150 when it was the top dog.

So I'm thinking it will still see it's share of sales. Not nearly what it used to see, but I don't think the 180 will completely eclipse it out of Axioms line up.
