Water can do that, ya know. But, I'll bet they'll come in Black Oak, just like the speakers (assuming Spiff's VTF is black).

Not really looking for another review... Though it (the 600) DOES look like a pretty interesting sub... I think my bride would about throttle me if I bought another one...

Dang it! I just creamed my jeans. And these were new boxers, too.
Those things are beautiful! Tomtuttle, scratch the SVS idea and buy an EP500! When you do, I'll be on the next flight to Seattle and I'll bring the beer!

Too late, and too expensive
I followed your lead and got a PB1-ISD
Very interesting marketing decision by Axiom. Can a M120 be far behind? While I applaud both the technological innovation and efforts to grow the business, this looks to me like a very clear departure from the core business. I'm not complaining, I'm just pondering.

Expensive, but I like the look of that EP600.
Maybe sometimes a company needs to put costs and marketing considerations aside and just say, "Look what we can do." Like the new Ford GT, that sub will probably speak volumes about the company's knowhow even if most of their traditional customers can't afford it. Maybe I can get full retail on my EP350 in a trade-in??????? please.....?

Oh, I agree. I fully expect the build quality to be top notch in every respect. No shortcuts taken.
I'm probably just feeling sorry for myself that I can't afford one right now. It's going to be torture reading the post made by the first one that buys that 600.
As I think about it, my wife was talking about getting a coffee table. I wonder what the 600 would like on it's side? We need more pics!

I was at Joe's house this past weekend, and he has a 600 there. Man that thing is big!! Unfortunately I had my kids with me, so demo time was limited to about 15 minutes. $%#@%#!!!!! My wife promised that when we go back up in October, I could have some "alone" time with that beauty. She is so understanding. That port is a little intimidating, though....
Chess, when you were at the factory, did you get to hear it? I must say that "Wow" seems so inadequate. "Holy mother of God!!!", is getting a little closer.
And yes Chess deserves a medal, for the other "secrets" are just as exciting.

Epic 80/600 + M3's + M3 Algonquins + M2 Computer + EP125 I think I'm developing an addiction.

The problem with the EP600 is it would be pretty conspicuous. I think you would need to buy a pair to balance the the look of the room.
