Well, we are all finally back in our seats after the Consumer Electronics Show. Ian and I combined the show with a holiday, and drove the whole way! 12,000 kms when we came back through the door yesterday morning. A wonderful road trip - I recommend it to anyone with a comfortable car!

At the show, Ian received three awards:

Home Theater & Sound Product of the Year for the EP500 DSP Subwoofer.

He also received the SoundStage! Exceptional Value Award for the M80 v2.

Ray Adkins from Audioholics also presented Ian with their Product of the Year award for the Epic 80 v 600 Home Theater System.

We're so proud of the whole team at Axiom who made these awards happen!

It was my first time touring the show with Alan Lofft, and it's a fun experience. It was his 25th CES! Needless to say, he knows everybody. I'll leave the new product reporting to Alan in this month's newsletter. We met with some great people - old friends and new acquaintances - and I look forward to a few fun changes as Axiom moves forward this year. Stay tuned!

I truly hope that you were in a comfortable car. How long did it take?

We left Christmas morning, with the intention of stopping for the night, but after a refreshing Christmas lunch with Brent, we ended up driving right through to Alberta - time on the road was about 32 hours. We left Alberta New Year's Day, and took two days to drive to Las Vegas. We left Las Vegas on Sunday and drove to Vail, and then did another around-the-clock from Vail to Toronto. The car was ridiculously comfortable for the Audi-ssey - the passenger seat reclines almost totally flat and is heated, so when it's your turn to sleep, you actually sleep!

It's almost magical being out alone at night in the prairies - just you and the long-haul truckers, and the big, big sky. Great memories include the sunrise chasing us across Montana forever (sunrise in Ontario is so fast in comparison!) and the strangest road noises I've ever heard on the highway at the bottom of Utah - I almost woke Ian up to tell him aliens were landing!! Strangest incident - getting hauled in by US customs for having 4 slices of salami in the car. Oh yeah, that's just like asking for a lovely white-gloved search. . .

Justly deserved praise! About time. Congrats to you and Ian, and everybody at Axiom. I'm very proud to be a part of the Axiom family, albeit a very small part.

I can't wait to hear all the crapola that will come from the Axiom detractors over at SVS.
