That's a complete bogus -- Totally unscientific!!! Of course, black is the color that will make it least bright!

amie, now we just need magnetic retro fit kits. then my wife could have one color for everyday use, and naturally a special color for company. kinda like the pans on the stove that get swapped out; nice clean shiny ones for company.

been attached at wrists and ankles for 25 years (stealing a line from firesign theater), and together for over 28 years. since i sell the pans, we regularly replace the burners and pans. if you have a dishwasher, pick up a product called dishwasher magic, fantastic. so when are you coming to "audition" the kennedys?

I had the black grills with my maples and I bought the new tan grills and my speakers are so much nicer looking. I still have photos of the two different looks on dvdfile.com forum and I can not belive I actually tolerated the black grills. UGLY!

Thank you Axiom for caring about the looks of speakers as well as the technology of the sound.

Hey snippy, would you care to post/link some photos of your maple/tan Axioms? Or, can anybody point me to such photos? -- I don't think this site shows any, right?

Sushi,

I also went with the maple/tan combo for my QS8's only (have black speakers and grilles for M22's and VP150), and both my wife (all important) and I have been pleased with the look. Axiom actually sent me the black grilles by mistake at first, so I had both in my apartment for a time.

The black looked fine, but since we wanted the surround speakers to blend into the surroundings, at least as much as the QS8's can blend into your living room, we preferred the tan grilles and that's what we stuck with. The tan has somewhat of a peachy tint to it, which is the only minor problem with it. But, all in all, the tan grilles are a viable option to pair with the maple speakers if you want them to be less obtrusive than the black grilles.

I was thinking about going all white with the QS8s, since I really don't like the contrast of 4 panels to a little bit of wood. Anyone have the 8s in the custom white yet? How do they look?
