Audioholics has a new Axiom Factory tour article up, revealing a few new toys at the factory and some new toys to leave the factory. http://www.audioholics.com/news/on-location-articles/axiom-audioI particularly like the enviromental test chamber, How many speaker companies have THAT?! I wonder how often the guys setup some chairs in there and set it for "sunny Kona hawaii" And then there's the EP800. This will be an intersting product, My biggest, and only real valid complaint of the EP600 is the port chuffing at high SPL and low frequency and i have no doubt this has been all but eliminated.

Thanks for the link. I'm certainly looking forward to the EP800, too. I don't know when exactly I'll be ready to go multiple-sub, but here's hoping it makes it out in time to be considered.

Nice article!
Maybe the 5.1 system would be a nice gift for my Dad! The EP800 would only work if I modded it as a coffee table! Hmmmm...

Two things. The article reinforces the engineering and design prowess of Axiom. Second, you got to figure that the EP800 will be one of the most musical (and at the same time high impact) subs in the $2-5K price range ever. I have a feeling it will become a legendary product that will bring over owners/buyers of "audiophile" mains that sell for $3K+ (B+W 800 series), Dali, Sonus Faber, Focal, etc. Maybe one of those customers will "throw in" a pair of M80s for their bedroom system! OK, I'll let Axiom worry about its sales forecast; I'm just really excited about this product and will tell Brent today that I'd like to be one of the first owners!!

The Mini system's brackets are genius! Also, I can't wait to hear an EP800.

I would love to be get my hands on one of the first ep800's to roll off the line!
I highly doubt I can swing that past my financial advisor (girlfriend) after my weber summit purchase...
Does the ep800 come with a complimentary diamond ring by chance?
