Yeah, that sounds more like a problem with your particular sub than with EP350s in general.

When i play it loud in the lower octave. There is a kind of vent noise comming from the left of the rubber. There is nothing loose, everything seem well built. I have read some reviews that were talking about this port or cone shuffling It does sound like port chuffing. Is the noise coming from the driver or the port? Is any air escaping around the driver during these scenes?

Hi Phillippe,
Inspect closely if the surround verifying that there is no small slot which air would escape from. You can push on the cone with your fingers to strech the suuround. You don't have to wait until Monday to phone (1.866.244.8796) I'm available today (Saturday) and tomorrow. Brent will be back on duty Monday.

So finally the air is comming from the side rubber. I talked with Jc this morning and Axiom sending me a new one to replace it. What a great customer service. Thank Jc ! I can't wait now to hear the real sound from the EP350.

Excellent Philippe. It sucks that you got a defective sub, but it does happen. Its nice to see that Axiom is being diligent as usual.

When i was looking inside the subwoofer of course i saw the cable linked from the amp to driver. A black and red one and also a yellow who were connected from the red binding post from the driver (woofer) to the other. I will have to change my driver soonly and i have Axiom speaker wires left. Do you guys think it could be in any way a kind of upgrate to swtich from the stock wire to Axiom speaker wire ?

We always talk about how there is no difference between cheaper speaker wire, and that which costs hundreds of dollars. Copper is copper, so I assume that would apply to internal wiring as well.
