Andrew, don't know why your asking us ... (except perhaps to get us all excited).

I will, of course, be interested if it improves something without giving up something else. So if rearranging an EP800, can get something like better seat to seat performance using this design; i'm all ears (so to speak ... especially if the price stays the same). If it's more subtle, like less cabinet vibration, I'm interested and it's a selling point but ... it will be hard to get me to pay for it unless you can relate it a performance gain.

I'd be very interested in this design as well. As others have said, I am curious what the real world advantage would be to this design? Is it similar output in a smaller package? Sonos has adopted this design in their subwoofer , but that is a niche product for Sonos owners. Plus they have oval 'racetrack' drivers to get the form factor they wanted.

I am excited to see what Axiom will come up with for new sub designs! Please keep us posted Andrew.

Soooo, you don't know if you're coming or going? You need to visit Dr. Doolittle.

I'd be interested in this type of sub and it's tehnical advantages over a single or dual driver (same baffle mount) from Andrew. I'd imagine sq would be the main benefit due to vibration cancellation, and driver protection would improve with the sealed/opposed configuration.
