Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater EP500 vs EP600

I know right! Good for Axiom, makes sense though, good deals are hard to come by and the economy (at least I my area) is booming! I have a confession, I did get the B-stock M100 boston cherries... and yes I do love them very much, even without the proper power pushing them.... looking forward to trying them with an AMP... I feel bad for my neighbors. lol

I just had to share this image, as i'm sure everyone is tired of seeing my little listening space!

It's out of picture, but the Miami Vice high gloss white EP600 is just to the left.

Is the Boston cherry wood or vinyl?

For the price I paid, I'm guessing MDF wrapped in vinyl. Looks great and sounds just as good... or does it Mojo, does the real wood sound better?

Even the wood ones are wood veneer. Real wood would not only be expensive but acoustically tough to work with.

I don't think they are made of MDF any more. I think they are HDF. Then again, I am not a wood expert. But it seems to me, the formulation has changed since the v2 days.

Waiting to see the order status change on my EP500 from processing to shipped 23 business days and counting... Really looking forward to getting everything hooked up next month. I will add an ADA1500 in a few months to run my 5.1 system and I'll convert it to one of the actives if I go that route next year.

I think the ICW (I can wait) is the minimum wait and not the maximum.

I've always told Axiom to take their time and not rush my stuff. This is life and death audio we're talking about here...LOL! I want it to work well and long. Of course the faster they ship, the faster they can recognize revenue.

Yeah I agree but once I pass the 21 day threshold I start getting antsy. This will be a whole new system because my parents are moving back to town and my father asked for his equipment back.

You're lucky to have had one to borrow. I bought the first system we ever had when I was growing up. With my money. That I earned while working illegally because I was only 11.

It was all Kenwood. I got it from Krazy Kelly's.

The reason I got to borrow it is because I take care of things unlike my older brother who likes to destroy stuff. I told my dad I want his old Sherwood receiver and Technics turntable when he no longer uses them. And I need to raid his vinyl collection before my brother gets his hands on them.

I learned about things by destroying them.
