I have a question for anyone who has an answer. Does axiom offer a trade-in/trade up program?

I have an EP500 and I want to upgrade it to either the EP600 or 800.

I just bought it in march. I would like something bigger.

Yes. I traded in 2 EP500s for 2 EP800s.

I just traded my ep350 for the ep500 (To arrive tomorrow). I really hope it will satisfy me. If not I will have to get the SVS PB13-U

You should get a decent trade in value if you follow the link above. If you are trading up from the 500 go to the 800. From the people that own both that posted here, it is an improvement over the 600. By the way the 800 is a sealed design, all the other Axiom subs are ported fyi.

PS: Call axiom and ask if you can order the 800 from the factory outlet along with the tradein. You might be able to shave a little extra off the cost.

Are you keeping an eye on your foundation?

I don't think trade in's apply to factory outlet items... read it somewhere but forget where.

Right, David; the program details(clickable from the above link)specifically exclude Factory Outlet items from the trade-up allowance.

However, IF you purchased from the FO I believe the item still has the same trade in value

Bummer it doesn’t include Sherwood Newcastle products either.

Anyone know is SN is eligible for the 5 item HT discount?
Posted By: JohnK Re: EP500 - 08/17/09 03:47 AM
Possibly so, that the original discount when a FO item was bought isn't taken into account to reduce the trade-up value. In any case, however, that trade-up value can't be applied toward a new FO item.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm going to look into this.
