Why were sealed designs not considered until now? That was one of the main reasons why I did not go to Axiom for my sub woofers. Same here.

My favourite little monster sub - EP400 - isn't mentioned in the updates.
Anything new with that model?

Hi Exlabdriver,
I can speak to the EP400 for you. It is going to get some further modifications later this year. For now it does have the new amp in it like all the other new models and it was already a sealed design.

The non-DSP models now feature signature Axiom trapezoidal cabinets,
Now this i would love to see. acoustic suspension designs. I'm sure that there will be many questions asking why we decided to go in this direction. The simple answer is distortion. At some point, ports have a tendency to make some noise, particularly with subsonic movie effects. GET OUT!! NO WAY THAT EVER HAPPENED!!http://www.axiomaudio.com/boards/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=5356&site_id=1#import I think you've been abusing your ports chess. Mine never chuffed on Lord of the Rings.

Ian, with only a 2 db max room SPL difference between the EP400 and EP500, why is the EP400 only recommended for smaller rooms? Is there still a big difference in capability between the two models for larger spaces, particularly for music only?

Thanks for the detailed info Andrew. It sounds like a major shift in design philosophy and I can't wait to hear some reviews from the first board members to try them out.
