I visited AVS this morning, and there was an add for Axiom subwoofers and they had a comment from Gene Delasella endorsing them. Seemed a bit strange but nice just the same.

Richard, there's been no change in that situation that I've heard about, and I've seen some rather snide comments in recent Audioholics articles about speakers and amplifiers which took thinly-disguised shots at Axiom. It depends on what subs were being advertised. There've been instances where Gene's endorsements from several years ago are quoted. Of course, if what you saw specifically showed him referring to new models, then that's different.

I believe it was an ep500 but it had the oval port on the front. Seems odd to be advertising a product they no longer sell.

It was an add on the AVS forum page. The adds there are targeted, for instance I looked at a powerbar on amazon and the next morning I had a targeted add for the power bar I was looking at. Funny thing though is I was not looking at axiom subs recently so it may have been just a random add. I will do a screen grab if it comes up again.

Or, the add companies are reading your mind and stealing your dreams?

Is this why I keep getting adds of Miranda Kerr enjoying a popsicle?

I wonder where those ads are generated from?
Last week when I was helping my daughter install towel racks, we had a stud-finder of hers from Canadian Tire that I wanted to get an online user manual since it was so fancy that I wasn't sure how to use it. After I searched for the manual online on her Mac, I started getting 'stud-finder ads' on AVS or AH...
