In anticipation of the AxiomAir, has anyone dealt with this FLAC downloading service based in the UK? It seems to have a quite extensive library including SACDs: https://allflac.com/Or are there other ones closer to home that may be as good? TAM

No, but that's a good find, Tom.
Do I have this right? I can download entire albums for a couple of bucks?

Now Tom...why would you want to sacrifice that bass if you were listening to the AxiomAir? Imagine how complete the AxiomAir would sound with one of them there EP400s sucking that suuuhhhweeet bass out of it!
We just have to get Andrew to see it our way.

.why would you want to sacrifice that bass if you were listening to the AxiomAir? Imagine how complete the AxiomAir would sound with one of them there EP400s sucking that suuuhhhweeet bass out of it! And does your Sub also use batteries so that you get all that bass when you are out at the park?? Perhaps you should invest in a pair of EP800's and some LFR1100 with an ADA1500-4 for your home so you can get a feeling of what really good sound is like,

Axiom: ADA1500, LFR1100 Actiive, QS8, EP500, M3, M3comp, M5

No sub at the park. Just on my deck as I said before.

I'm really liking how the AxiomAir is turning out. I know I'll regret not snagging one at the introductory price, but I have too many other immediate expenses. Perhaps waiting won't be such a bad thing. As has been mentioned, this wasn't planned as a single product, but as a platform, so I'm looking forward to seeing what else is in store.

Hi Mark, Do you mean something like this below that contains just the Pi and the DAC? Thereby allowing you to make any of your "wired" systems work like the AxiomAir.
