Re - what finish did you go with:

We ended up picking the Mansfield Beech veneer with Warm Tan grills. In a perfect, Lotto-winning, fantasy world, I'd have picked the Knotty Pine real wood, but that simply added too much cost to the package.

Thanks for the warm welcome, Folks! I'll let you know when the speakers arrive and will post some pix of the set up. Always assuming, of course, that I can tear myself away from the listening long enough to do those things.

You'll have to excuse me now, I seem to be coming down with the dreaded Axiom flu...

That is why it is our responsibility as parents to play classic rock from the day they are born. My kids like my music just as much or more than they like the new stuff. Mission accomplished lol.

Plus 1 on playing the music for the kids. Both daughters have let me pull music off their Ipods - They have very diverse tastes. From Louis Armstrong/Benny Goodman/Frank Sinatra/Dean Martin to the Beatles/Stones to Vivaldi/Bach/Cello Concertos to Dixie Chicks to the latest HipHop Rap.
Plus 10 on SNL - nuff said.

Well, my speakers are spending the night in St. Paul, Minnesota. That just doesn't seem right, somehow.

Try to sleep tonight. You might not get much over the next few days once the speakers are setup.

As to the music education, I've got my 12 y.o. son listening to Albert King's Born Under A Bad Sign and Crosscut Saw right now. I have to balance his Top 40 exposure in Mom's van. It's my duty. wink
