Now considering a pair of 8's mounted in th emiddle of a white ceiling, the whitewashed color might blend in better. Hmmm I actually do not care as much for the whitewashed color, as the beech. I think it would look best if all four surrounds matched. Now to decide to 'blend into ceiling w/ white, or blend to wall for sides with beech (the preferred color). Of course the sides do not stick out physically like the ceilings will. Yet another uneasy decision. Any ideas/ thoughts from others with ceilings & walls?

Jay, are you happy with your choice of white? Was that pic. your side or back?


Good eye, it is Axiom's Light Maple, very much like Washed Oak. I really liked the contrast look of the black grille with it. My wife is now favoring the standard black, I am pushing for one of the custom wraps to better match the Maple I have in the basement, but this change up is very, very far off in the future.
