Come on, who does not want a speaker wire that can jump start your A-10 in a jam. That's just good planning.

No. Amazingly enough, they're absolutely serious about their products -- and their claims. And they even go to the trouble of producing a printed catalog as well. I know because I get it. I'm not sure how, but I ended up on their mailing list. It's as awesome as the website.

Man, I'm kind of jealous. I may have to try for their catalog sometime. Maybe I'll purchase one of their cheaper products.

I never have. As I said, I have no idea how I got on their mailing list. But it appears that you can sign yourself up... http://www8.mailordercentral.com/mapleshade/Inforequest.asp

I started getting the catalogs right after I subscribed to Stereophile... but I told them to stop because it wasn't worth the tree slaughter....

I was thinking that was probably why I started getting their catalogs as well. I can't say that I have ever been tempted to buy anything from them except CDs.

If the thread ain't hijacked, you ain't on the Axiom forum!

so! My order has shipped! yay.... I guess it took a couple days longer to ship that I'd expected, but what the heck. Truth be told, I need to figure out how I'm going to configure my listening area. My TV watching area is tiny - basically the size of a large "booth" in a restaurant. Thinking the niftiest thing I could do is go ahead integrate the new speakers plus amp and pre-amp into my TV watching experience, too. Even though it won't be surround, for now. So I need to remove this little surround sound thingy I've been using http://www.macworld.com/article/51727/2006/07/zvoxmini.html and hook the TV up to my stereo pre-amp instead. Only thing is, the pre-amp only has one AUX in, which I use with my computer. Wondering if the TV could go into the Tape In, and then I could use it/be able to hear it with Tape Monitor button pushed. Anybody know if TV sound can go in through Tape In? or, CD in? I play CD's through my computer, so that goes through the AUX, like I mentioned. Hate to make the Z Vox be "unemployed". Maybe I could give it to my Mom for her bedroom TV. hmmm.... The Z vox has some distortion and vibration of its cabinet when deep bass tries to be there. So I won't miss that aspect of it. I will miss the surround effect during sports, mostly. I love the surround, though fake, during football. Anyway, in a sense its good that the Axioms took a few days longer to ship, as that will give me this weekend to reconfigure that area. I just can't BELIEVE the number of electrical plugs required for cable box, router, phone and internet modem, power adapter for laptop, regular desktop 'puter, etc etc...plus one more if I want to stream music from puter to pre amp wirelessly - for the Airport Express. sheesh. Not to mention AC window unit, a lamp, the TV and now power amp plus pre-amp! So, lots to do to get ready for the new babies to arrive. Just thinking out loud here... If anyone knows about whether or not I can run the TV into the pre-amp via either Tape IN or CD inputs, I'd appreciate the info. Thanks!
