Building on Mark's fine "One" ideas...
I think the amp needs a nice simple name. Either the "Axiom A1" or (for Ian) the A8.
Not to clutter up the thread or anything, but every since this amp was first announced I have been thinking "dang, that's expensive, they could make it a lot more affordable if only they..."
... but after months of occasional deep thoughts I really believe the Axiom folks are on the right track with this amp. Every year we see relatively more energy going to the surrounds, and the old "just put a power amp on the mains and center" idea gets a bit less appropriate.
Wait... I have a vision... yes, I see one of those Native American names like "Amp who Never Shut Down when Randy Demo for Friends".
Maybe not.

As I sit here in the snowy splendor of Vail, Colorado... (Never been here before...but cannot ski or snowboard due to a blown knee... beyond repair ), I have to submit the following: Axiom's New Adept Series: Proficient Power, Bar None. Axiom's Creation Line of Amps: Power, Created by Axiom. Axiom's Aurian Line: Based on the word aura - Dictionary.com defines the word aura: A distinctive but intangible quality that seems to surround a person or thing; atmosphere. The Reproduction Series Amps by Axiom: Power for Music Reproduction, Supplied by Axiom. The Definition Series Amps: Power, Defined by Axiom! The New Origin Series of Amps by Axiom: Power...Basic, Nothing More. Atmosphere Amps by Axiom: Power and Presence, Delivered by Axiom. Or, Atmosfera, a variation of the above using a Portuguese spelling. Late, but hopefully not forgotten! WhatFurrer

My ideas were already taken so I will support them
axiom cool power cool amp
cold power cold amp
If my math is correct 1400 watts output from 15 amp input is almost 85% efficient. that should be a very 'cool' amplifier. cant wait to read some reviews.

That's all for now.
