La la la. Can't hear you.

Thanks Jared. I'm really looking forward to it.

OK chess, I clicked anyway (who could resist) and your evaluation sums up why I went with the EP350. I grew up with music that didn't thump. I don't want the bass to overshadow, and unless I go with something like the PB13 I don't think I will get the music performance I want.

For the cost as part of a complete system I think the EP350 is a good place for me to start.

I would really love to listen to some pipe organ music with a sub that truely hits 16Hz, but it still needs to be tight and clean higher up.

If I decide I need more bass, I may end up trying to build my own. There seems to be a ton of software out there for modeling and designing subs. I like to build stuff so it might actually be fun.

Hmm... wonder how the neighbours would feel about me cranking up my 10" table saw in my apartment.

Indeed Ken, there have been changes.
I was one of a few who reported a port chuff issue way back with the EP350 and since i heard about the latest revision with changes to the port and cabinet, i can only wonder how the two compare now.
I expect one would not hear a distinctively different character but perhaps a somewhat more controlled sound with the new version.

I'm actually thinking about moving to an EP500 at some point. Maybe with revision 3.

I still won't buy a SVS tube.

Very good, Fred. Get set up, enjoy some beautiful music, and stop worrying about the equipment.

Thanks John. I will. I tend to do all mu obsessing pre-purchase. I have been enjoying my Sony RP for the last 3 months. I'm looking forward to mating it with my Axioms.

I havn't been a big fan of music dvd's, but I think that is about to change.

I read through your review after reading the above comment but am a bit confused As I read it, you seemed to favor the SVS unit for your situation. What am I missing?

Hey Chesseroo.. hopefully my speakers will show up in the next couple weeks, including an ep350.

I could probably be persuaded to bring the sub across the city, in exchange for some speaker education one weekend afternoon

Congrats Fred.

When Framer and I compared his old 350v2 to the 350v3 the v3 blew the old one away. The old one was anemic comparitavely speaking. The v3 has more power and sounds much closer to the EP600 when we had the v3 at mojo's. It is very controlled and has some good punch for HT. The v2 sounded more like my old 13yr old D-Box sub, really nothing special, just adds a little to the low end.

There is another fellow in town who has an EP500.
I've been meaning to get together with him as well.

Lately i've been swamped with what feels like four jobs and a field season fast approaching.
I would have to squeeze it in between the out of town trips and our deck replacement.
My wine tasting quota is way off these days.
