Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion What's New At Axiom Axiom Amp Naming Contest

The Axiom Dynamo

I notice it's got a cool blue light....just like my Belkin FP60.

What about: "The Blue Light Special"? Too K-Marty? Is that a word?

Oh boy Amie, I hope I win this one. This would be a great opportunity for me to send my Emotiva amp back and use the winnings to get one of these new amps. I'm sure it would not have any problem filling my 8,000 cu ft space, or would ever shutdown.

I think it is very important that you continue to recognize Axiom's canadian heritage. When I first received my Axiom speakers, it impressed me to see "French" wording on the exterior of the boxes. Although I don't speak french, I think it is very important for you guys to BE PROUND of your heritage as one of the best Canadian Speaker companies ever.

So, below are my selections in French (I used Google tranlator to help me)


perfection or parachèvement - the name says it all.

parangon (paragon) - an ideal instance; a perfect embodiment of a concept.

utopie (utopia) - considered to be perfect or ideal.

brillance (brilliance) - the quality of being magnificent or splendid or grand.

sans paire or sans égal (peerless) - eminent beyond or above comparison

ps: I'm crossing my fingers.

Here's a fewthat could wotk...

Axiom PD1400 – Power Driven 1400W
Axiom CF – Cold Fusion (puts out a lot for what it takes in)
Axiom SPP – The Silent Power Plant
Axiom Tempest - the heart of a storm

Axiom goliath
Axiom flux capacitor
Axiom genesis

OK, I have no deadlines today and really want to win this one!

Although any multi-channel amp is often assumed to be for HT, here are some musical terms that might work for planting the idea of the amps being worthy of a fine two-channel system as well:

a cappella - Choral music performed without instrumental accompaniment
Accent
Allegro - Fast, cheerful.
Aria
Arpeggio
The Ballet
Sonata
Chorale
Chorus
The Jazz
Concerto
Conductor
Crescendo
Dolce – Sweetly
Encore "Again"; an audience request that the performer(s) repeat a piece or perform another
Forte - The Italian term for "loud", indicated in the musical score by the marking "f"
fortissimo - The Italian term for "very loud", indicated in the musical score by the marking "ff"
The Axiom "Note" …as in musical….
Musique
Overture
Refrain - Text or music that is repeated within a larger form
Requiem
Serenade
Verismo - Operatic "realism", a style popular in Italy in the 1890s, which tried to bring naturalism into the lyric theater
Virtuoso
