Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Thought on cables

I have the Outlaw ICBM doing the crossover work for my stereo,its a nice solid piece of equipment.The cables Outlaw sells are real nice too,I only have one set but they sure are nice.

The sub sounds great with the music I have played. I still have my cabnet and TV pulled out because of the audio problem I stated. Once that is corrected and I get the sub and M60's dialed in I will update you as to how I feel about the system. So far so good.

All the cable running the system are Outlaw as well. I felt if I was going to do it, do it right.

Outlaw does make nice cables. They are a pain to remove though. It's hard to get my fingers around the barrels to unlock them. I actually like the locking feature; it's nice to know that they won't come loose.

I picked up the ICBM before I purchased my Integra DTR 7.4.
I actually use it, but don't really need it with the bass management built in to the receiver. It's more flexible than the receiver, I think. My M200’s are waiting patiently for the M22’s. The 755 are worth every penny.

Outlaw is like Axiom, good customer service and products for less.

I haven't yet had to remove the Outlaw cables yet.The locking feature is a nice option though.I got the ICBM because being a stereo pre amp my Rotel dosen't have any bass management.At first I tried a Hsu high pass filter and didn't like it because it introduced a hissing sound in my 80's.When I talked to Dr. Hsu about it he had said it was that my speakers had such a high sensitivity rating.Anyway I had to send the Hsu back because of the noise.After reading about the Icbm for about a year or so I finnaly gave it a shot.This thing does what it is supposed to and is dead quiet.Very happy costumer here.

The thing I like about the ICBM is that you can actually run subwoofers in stereo mode. My room is too small to notice bass in stereo at least I think it is. I don't even want to get into that discussion... I wonder if any one is doing that here? I would be curious to know what their thoughts are on this. On paper it looks dandy, in reality who knows if there would be a benefit.

Here is a good read on running stereo subs.

Thanks! SoundHound is very knowledgeable. I always like reading his posts. I missed this one though.

I 've read it a few times it is a very good read.It answers alot of questions about the benfits of running two subs as compared to just one.

two subs makes a huge difference,i tried three identical subs,but the change in sound wasnt as dramatic as just adding the second one,so two is enough for me,pick up another and hear and feel the differance for yourself,you will feel like you have a whole new system

My wife is going to think I'm nuts if I pick up another Earthquake Supernova Mkv-15. It's going to be a lot 'o' fun .
