I'd order several samples to be sure. I went with the cinnamon beech and burnt sienna grilles...they look purty...

To me the tan grill on beech reminds me of that guy that shows up to the prom with the rented white tuxedo and white shirt.


I bought tan on beech for one simple reason - so I'd never be tempted to put the grilles on... I do leave the woofer grilles on the QSs, though. I like the way it looks... lets the dark tweeters draw the attention.

Still looking for photos of Mansfield Beech? I could take some if you wanted.

I think I am fine for pics, thanks.

We like the look of Beech with grills off, but like the look of Cherry with grills on or off, so gonna order up a pair of M22's in Cherry to start.

Thanks all for the feedback......and Jakewash for the audition.

You are most welcome. Glad you liked them enough to buy a set. I do agree the light maple is too light, I say it is like bleached oak when I describe it to other folks that haven't seen them. Maybe a name change for that color could be bleached maple.

I've been off the boards for several days, but here's some (late) photos:

Mark, thanks for the pics. They look much nicer in your room than what I was seeing on the Axiom site. What size sub is that in the pic??

I placed an order yesterday for the M22's in Boston Cherry, so just playing the waiting game now from the factory outlet.
