Guys, I decided to start my own thread for my EP800 experiences. I'll be tweaking today (without REW, I left my laptop at work), and I'll post pix and comments later in the day. First pic though... Theater full of subs!

You should call your Home Theatre, your BASS-ment!!

I posted this on the other thread, but I'll ask the question again on mine.
Jason/CV - On the back of your speakers, what is the power draw of your sub amps? Mine say 675W (same as the EP500s). This seems strange to me since they are supposed to be 800W subs, and should therefore draw well over 800W. By the way, the picture in the instruction book shows 675W also.

Hi S.Roode,
I checked with Tom Cumberland, Axiom's chief electronics engineer, who reports that at average music listening levels, the amplifier will draw about 675 watts. At full output, however, it does draw 800 watts. Both dual-voice coil drivers are wired in parallel, so we have a very low impedance "seen" by the subwoofer amplifier, hence it produces greater output into the very low impedance.
Regards,
Alan
