I hope it is *just* a rumor but I heard the following:
"Apparently Axiom is discontinuing the Epic Micro and Mini and they will be replacing them with some speakers made in Asia to increase profit. "

I agree with you patchwork, I think there is a good demand for some Bo$e-busters. Many people simply have a very strong WAF to consider and keeping a well made micro / mini line would really appeal to those people.

Ian, care to shed some light on the matter?
