It's been far too long since Ian and Amie gave away some loot, no? Especially since I didn't win any of their previous give-aways.

Ditto! I'd love the chance to win free axiom gear!
I've promised my (much)younger brother a pair of M3s or M2s when he moves out from the 'rents and gets his on apartment. So a pair of those would be great!

It's weird. It's as though you're telepathic! There's a contest in today's newsletter! But you'll have to work for it . . .

I get the newsletter by e-mail, but haven't received the June one yet. Then, when I clicked the link for the newsletter on the web, I get the May letter. Any help finding the new newsletter you guys are talking about.

hey Jimilla
check out the Axiom homepage. Halfway down the page on the right-hand side is the sign up for the newsletter (called the Axiom audiofile).

This is so weird - I sent it on a break from our photo shoot yesterday at noon and it still hasn't arrived anywhere? Have to look into this with our provider.
Meanwhile, cheat sheet while I get the links updated site-wide:

Judging by the front license plate, it looks like Joe ran into the VP150. I hate it when that happens. I run over mine all the time.

I submitted some good ones -- much better than the ones included in the vote IMHO -- but if I told you what they were I'd have to kill you.

Hey Bray, are you ever in the Ontario area? I'm dying to get to Texas, but preferably not lugging an Epic 80! And Joe, and a Porsche . . .

That leaves out tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Not acceptable! I want my speakers to sound as good tomorrow (and after) as they do todaY.

I'm sorry to tell you guys, but I think that you're wasting your time. In addition to submitting a stellar slogan, I have offered up as a token of my loyalty to Axiom an offer to sacrifice and take a pair of less costly M2s in the place of the m3s.

We were totally overwhelmed!!! I can't believe how many entries there were! We've narrowed it down to 100 to take a sub-vote internally, and I'll let you know as soon as we get the next vote ready. BTW, Axiom - Excellence by Design won outof the 7 posted slogans. Thanks to everyone who picked 'We'll give you an earful' as your 1,2, and 3rd choices!! Hahaha

IN, good show! Just read the newsletter. Does that wording mean that you also submitted the runner-up? Now you've got to work on a generous trade-up arrangement.

INANE, the only thing better than winning yourself is knowing someone who won. Nice work.
Damn! I can't believe that "Axioms - not your father's Oldsmobile and you can't eat just one" didn't even get an honorable mention.

LOL
I guess I actually was the runner up, to Ian's slogan so they decided he doesn't deserve any more speakers so I get the contest ones.
This is esp great since I don't yet own any Axioms. I am getting close to being able to pull the perverbial trigger but having the M3's in the meantime will be VERY nice.
thx again all
