Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Audioholics Ultimate Subwoofer Shootout

I agree that it’s nice to see a list of less well known names among the contenders. I like more competition.



Are you allowed to say that. I thought they were a sacred cow here or am I mixing up my forums.

Well this is the Axiom forum...I just figured not many of those fanboys here...lol.

I was just throwing a rock at someone who jumped my butt for mentioning the CS problems a while ago though it very likely could have been another forum. It was just a little “reconnaissance by fire” (where you shoot up something hoping to get someone to fire back thus giving up their position) on my part.

Looks like changes are pending. Sounds like Gene is trying to keep the footprint of all the subs involved on the same playing field and Klipsch might not meet that requirement...we shall wait and see. Oh and BTW...Svs had a response in regards to why they took a pass which I found interesting...fwiw.

Thanks for the link to the response. Don’t know if you were around a couple years ago but Audioholics and SVS had a falling out over what Audioholics deemed to be marketing by SVS “people” (not sure if employees were used) in forum posts. They even went so far as to sever their advertising relationship. Maybe they getting along better now.

Regardless I thing SVS’s suggestion is a good one. It makes no sense to me to compare grossly mismatched products.

Seems like a very reasonable response, and a good idea.

I was there and kinda have a feel for what happened...its nice to see they still have a mutual & business respect for one another. Sounds like all the the said subs will have to conform to a ported or PR's in their designs...just to level the playing field.

I would really like to see SVS there for a number of reasons, one I have one but its their bottom of the line NSD sub. Two I believe I will be upgrading to another in the next six months or so. (its like having a fast car, even though yours is fast, you want to go faster). I really want to see the EP500 vs the PB 12 Plus (even though they would use the Ultra and Axiom the 600 or 800).

As far as I know only a couple people on this forum has owned an eD sub. I currently have a A5-350 on order. I must admit I am getting a tad bit impatient with the waiting game. If they don't have them shipping very soon I'm going to cancel my order and go with another vendor, which hasn't been picked yet.

I'm certainly no fan boy, that's for sure. They need to get their act together before it's to late.

Hey Rick, maybe you should go with HSU. I know you have always been fond of them.
