That's a great show, I saw that a few weeks ago.

Hey, if it's good enough for NASA, awks it is. :thmbsp:

I loved that video - best use of the AUX input ever.

Aux/OX/OXE..

Either way you pronounce or enunciate it, someone is bound to think you have an accent.:saywhat:

Unless you pronounce it "OH-zill-a-ree" it should not be shortened to "oh."

Well, I'm a Hillbilly, so its "Awks" to me...

+1 i'm from Brooklyn,NY LOL

I would be very confused if someone said "Oh" to me when they meant Aux. It sounds like zero, and there is of course no Zero input on an amp. Whereas "aux" is unmistakable.

In french, it is pronounced in the english equivalent of "OX".

And as someone stated, in french, AUX (auxiliaire) means "something helpful" or "an alternative or supplementary choice"... and even "something used in reserve". All those definitions are well suited to this famous button.

I say 'SEE DEE' or 'AYE PAWD'

I don't use it as I have no AUX player.
