Ok, here are some pics with my crappy digital camera of my new Ebony speakers. My 2.5yr old son Nathan had to pose for a few of them.

Very nice! They must dissapear with the lights out.
Wasn't your son just born when you promised to post the photos??

Nice lookin' speakers, nice lookin' kid!

Great call on the Horizontal 600. Looks like an optimal localization for bass presentation. The color goes perfectly with the colors you have used in your room. Nice job!

...and by the way, looks like your son has great taste in speakers as well!

Hey, the EP600 still shows up in the shopping cart as $1780, not $1810. How cool.

I'm still debating whether to get the EP600 or the HSU VTF-3 HO. Too many hard decisions in this hobby.

But yeah, looks very nice. If I had it to do over, I'd probably get black, but I'll live with what I've got.

Very nice, Randy!

Randy - that looks terrific. Having everything pretty much disappear when the movie starts is a really nice effect.

Thanks everyone...

Yes, as most of you mentioned, the speakers pretty much disappear during movie watching with the grills on obviously. I just took them off for a few of the pictures because I think it looks cool.

Now my 8yr old son is jealous that he didn't get in on any of the action, so I suppose I'll have to post some more pics in a few days.

The performance of the 600 up front is amazing, it truely outperforms my 500 in the same location, in my humble opinion.. Oh yeah, and did I say the m80v2's are awesome Rick and Rick.

Those look great!!! That black should almost be a standard offering instead of the black vinyl.

Cute kid. Did you ever think of the advantages your kids will have over you when you were young?

I mean, my dad was playing 78's of Johnny Cash, Charley Pride, Conway Twitty, etc on this RCA cabinet stereo that was bigger than our couch. His idea of remote control was telling us to turn the channel knob until he said stop.

Your kids will be programming the Harmony remote and gaming in 7.1 on a 120" screen. My kid cant believe we lived without Treehouse TV or Teletoon. Enjoy the speakers.

Thanks, actually the Ebony is vinyl, just one of their custom vinyl colors. The standard vinyl in black is an oak look.

I know what your saying. My 8yr old son knows how to turn on the projector, AVR, HTPC, and his playstation without any help.

Looking good, Randy, and as you said when you were considering colors, probably not looking at all during a movie.

Thanks John,

What is really nice, when I am enjoying music listening with the lights on, the speakers look very nice and "Rich" looking. I've owned a lot of black speakers in the past, these are by far the nicest in appearance.

Very nice!

Wow, those look great !

(sotto voce; I need an EP600)

Finally!

Those are great pictures, Randy. Seems like you're just about "done" with AV equipment acquisition. What's next?

I love the pictures of Nathan with the EP600 and the M80. Those are classic! I think Axiom should use them. I'm betting you didn't crank it up with him laying on the EP600, though.

Great room. I'm envious.

Randy,

great photo's, man that black is nice. I can only imagine how they disappear, my boston cherry's disappear completly with the grills on with my front black wall and the lights off, moreso would yours just disappear.

Whats next, another EP600?

With the grills on, they just about dissapear with the lights on!

Nice randy. I like the pics with your son. Gives a good sense of scale to the M80s and EP600.

Awesome setup!

LOL!!! Poor kid would probably develop a really bad stuttering problem!
Wow, what a beautiful black satin finish!

Looking good Randyman! The speakers are (in my best Borat voice) Very Niice!

I love the big screen. Very jealous now...

Very nice indeedy Mr. Randall! Love the pics with Nathan, gives a good indication of just how big these speakers really are ... unless he is exceptionally short!
