Had to pick only one huh? Ok, I put down the black oak cuz that's what the wife wanted for the mains and center, instead of the Boston Cherry that I had picked and that we had for our old mains(which are now in back as surrounds)So, three in BO and two in BC.
I guess there's no way to edit the poll...otherwise, I would update it, so that people could select more than one. Doubt that you can vote twice...but let's just say that this poll is for your 'main' system. 
This is a fun poll!!
That IS my main speaker system!! 
Interestingly; having black speakers up front with the grey TV and (mostly)black electronics works very well indeed!
.....ok; the Wife was right.
But having the Boston Cherry surrounds in back works just as well cuz they fit in better with the color scheme of the rest of the furnishings toward the back of the room.
....no, I wasen't "right," I was lucky.
A two-tone color mis-match is only one of the seventeen odd ways that my Axiom system strays from the norm!!

I talked with the wife, at length, before I bought my black speakers. Black goes with most everything and is easy to match. So, black it was.

Looks like I'm the only one brave enough to go with light maple.

>>Looks like I'm the only one brave enough to go with light maple. One more. I'm surprised, I figured Maple would be one of the more popular colours. Way more people picked Cherry than I was expecting... ... even though my M40s are Boston Cherry

And Boston Cherry for me as well, John. The sound is "warmer".

I've got Vermont Maple on my 3 fronts (rather similar--but not identical--to Boston Cherry, but BC people don't get their name printed on the speaker labels!) and Mansfield Beech on the QS4s. All with black grills, thank goodness. Can't stand that colored grill look.
I am the Doctor, and THIS... is my SPOON!
