All are going to be improved and updated with Crossovers this time Sub Amps:All of the AX DE's are going to have new circuitboards, more advanced, up to date, and they are going to be Bi-polar (someone help me with that term :) and that "special feature" might be present within the DE amps also.Thats all for now

October 11, 200519 yr So are their plans for another 6000 or DD in the works I would like to play with a couple of those By the way nice to see some info about the change over I was rather concerned that US would fall victim to the sell out bug and end up like so many others out thier.

I dont know when exactly its coming out, but all i can tell you is... its gonna be nearly 4ft long, Class A/Bits gonna be HOT.
