Mike, you could ask Axiom for a sample to help your decision. Small price to pay, to make the right choice.
I ordered all three stock samples. It was easy to tell that the Boston Cherry was too dark for our taste because it is so much stronger than the Beech and Maple. I did not feel I could make an a decent choice between those two, seeing just the 8"x 10" stock sample plaques. Maybe that is just me.
Mark, you make a good point. My post may have been on the harsh side. I still think that, as you say, a number of good photos of the three stock finishes in multiple decors would be of a big benefit. Three speaker colors with one black cover, one nude. Having buttons to swap colors, like some on the site would be best. But I have no sense of how much is involded to do that. Anyway, the three main finishes would cover the lion's share of their sales, I'd guess.
(went a bit over my 2¢ on this topic... I'm through now ;o)
