I was all set to take advantage of Axiom's big holiday deals, when I discovered that they no longer carry light maple veneer. I have already purchased M3s and a VP150 with this veneer and I'd like all my speakers to match. What do I do?
I was going to get an EP400 for sure, and maybe M60s.
I'd give them a call. They can probably help you out.
Their hours are 9:30am - 6:00pm Mon-Fri, EST. At this point I don't think I'll be able to give them a call before the deals expire.
I was in the same boat. Added M3's to cart....customize, no maple.
too late now.
The $250 "Gift Card" expires midnight Dec. 1st, so you should be able to call before that.
The Light Maple vinyl veneer was discontinued by the manufacturer. We have been suggesting Maple White Washed real wood veneer as a match. It is pretty close.
Same here. Already have M60's, EP350 and VP100 all in light maple. Need to get a pair of QS8's to go with them but no light maple available. I looked at the real wood veneer option and it looks like it should work, but at $80 per speaker that bumps the pair up another $160. OUCH!
I just went ahead and ordered an EP400 white washed. That's really too bad that light maple is gone for good.
Maybe you can find someone that can paint on a faux finish. There are plenty of talented people I am sure could hand it.
Maybe he can trade his in, and I'll buy the M3's on the refurb section
