Yeah...my QS10s are walnut natural like my actives and dual 500s and my 160 (which is decommissioned since the actives).

The walnut reminds me of a set of Bose 901s my dad had growing up.

You know the no highs no lows was intentional, right? Most brilliant thing I've seen in audio!

Yes, I have several smaller Bose speakers and sometimes enjoy the flat tone quality but my ears like clarity and tend to prefer crisp high frequencies. On a brighter note, the ordering issue is fixed and the m100s are on order. Now i just have to wait 21 business days + to get to hear them along with the 180 and EP500.

Unfortunately the 21 day discount is still not working for me.

Canes, what finish M100 did you get?

I can't wait for you to get those, man. One of my buddies just got a pair and he and his wife just can't stop listening to them.

Ebony with black grilles. I’ve always been partial to black although those white Miami vice speakers look pretty sleek too. I like the wood finishes but they wouldn’t fit the design we are going for.

I like the ebony and the miami vice ivory too but the ivory definitely doesn't work with my decor.

I was one of the doofuses who kept resisting wood and didn't want the prices raised one iota for a wood finish. I am so damned glad Ian doesn't listen to what his customers want but rather to what they need. I never knew I loved wood so much until I got the walnut actives in here. Now I'm addicted to woodies and want to get every Axiom speaker in every possible finish.

BTW, my M50s are ebony. I just had to try ebony, you know. I love them. Not only the finish but also the sound. The sound reminds me of a darkly lit, intimate jazz club with hints of cigar smoke, cognac and chocolate wafting in the air while a tall dame with raven hair and a husky voice croons as she eyes my curly hair and healthy complexion.
