I guess I did not realize that Axiom removed the ability to daisy chain using RCA's, seems that is making things more difficult?

Well, they could be somehow using the balanced outputs with the unbalanced inputs, but I don't know. Guess we'll have to ask about that.

Since it's been decided to use a Y-splitter from the receiver sub out, the point is pretty much moot, but since the EP500s each have the new inputs, a balanced connecting cable can be used for a daisy-chain connection, as the manual describes.

Well I haven't hooked them up yet John... It would make life a wee bit easier to daisy chain them, as I wouldn't need to pull another cable in.
The balanced cables are just XLR with one mail end and one female right?

Sure, Mike; if it'd be easier for you to use the daisy-chain connection, the most common type of XLR cable, with one male connector(into the second sub)and one female(out of the male XLR output on the first sub)would work. Of course, there're other options: XLR to RCA plug cables are available and a XLR-RCA adaptor fitted to the first sub would allow using a regular coaxial cable with RCA plugs on each end.
All of these connections are actually unbalanced, regardless of the cable used, since if the signal comes out of the receiver unbalanced, using different cables or adaptors can't make it balanced. A balanced connection requires two signals of opposite polarity coming out of the receiver or separate pre-amp.

Thanks guys. I was looking at these, from Blue Jeans. http://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/balancedaudio/index.htmInteresting information there John. It's obviouse now that you mention it, but I had not thought of it (about not being balanced).
