Sure, for $80 why not? It'll add a little bass extension to the main speakers that you're considering.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Yeah for $80 I just can't pass it up. All I'm looking for is something to fill out the bass. This should do just fine.

Yeah that's exactly what I said to myself when I saw it on Sunday. I might even trade in a pair of Rockford Fosgate car subs to put towards them. They've been gathering dust in my closet for years.

Well I picked up the ep125 yesterday. I gave it a quick demo and was throroughly impressed with the bass output this little 8" produced. I'll wait until I order the M3's to hook it up. Best $80 I've ever spent.

I am glad you like the $80 sub, what a find!

I'm still in shock that I found this little gem. Who knew a little shop in Regina is going to have an Axiom sub that I was considering buying one day. $80 is a lot easier on the bank account than $470.

Two more questions (sorry )....Does Axiom have anything that denotes what version it is on the speaker? For Example my Paradigm center channel is marked as cc370 v.3. I'm assuming this is the first version since there's nothing that states otherwise. Just curious.

Also does Axiom (or any hi fi store) sell replacement grill pegs? 3 out of the 4 pegs are sheared right off and if possible I'd like to replace them. This is probably common knowledge among true audiophiles but I've never had to worry about it before.

If the back label doesn't say v2, it's not a v2. What v2 means varies between the speaker lines (for example, I'm fairly certain there's no difference between the EP500v2 and the EP500.)

Actually, there were changes to the DSP code and a few other small changes made to the EP500. If we can make it better, we do!

D'oh! I've been wrong about just about everything I've said about the v2s... different binding posts than I thought, DSP changes...
