Mark has a point. I love the HG burled walnut on my Audiobytes, but I think it would be totally overwhelming on M80s, or even M50s.

Okay, I think we have agreement they need really good pics in a real setting of the most common options purchased in terms of finishes and models. That permutation would come out to maybe 100 pics (skipping any effort at math!) in addition to what is on the site now. Done.
Someone inform the board we have ruled.

You guys are aware of the custom wood studio, right? It would be overkill (and a herculean task, yes) to capture every possible speaker/wood/finish/gloss/grille combo. I think the custom wood studio strikes the right balance. You can preview all the different woods, stains, and grilles in any combination on an M2 speaker. I do agree that the pictures should be higher resolution, though. And perhaps include a detail shot taken of a top, front corner at all gloss levels to show the reflectivity.

Could some one from Axiom weigh in on the current policy regarding the samples?
Does the cost still apply to the purchase?
Do you have to return them?
Just curious....Rob

Rob, call the toll free # or email them to get the quickest response, sometimes your question can get buried in the forums.

Aye...
Even just more photos of the three basic vinyls. That would likely cover the majority of buyers.

Well, huge let down, I ended up going with the Black Oak Vinyl! The samples didn't really knock me out, so I decided to save the $$ and get the standard finish! They should be here within the week!
Thanks for all the input...
