OK, no one responded to my question on stain color. Would you indulge me on high gloss vs semi (the latter of which I own several Axiom pieces). I have always lusted for that deep high gloss look. It's pricey of course and warranted due to the significant labor of multiple coats. Hard to photograph, so can someone who took the plunge into the deep (gloss that is) please tell me how much you like it?! Yes, none of this is about pure listening pleasure, but I think an undervalued aspect of Axiom is quality and workmanship. So please don't get mad that I'm wasting time on an issue unrelated to sound quality!
