Two 600s and two more 500s are up next. The 125s are for living room duty with M2OW. SVS smothers their PCBs with glue.

In addition to the two EP125 in cherry chestnut, I now have two 600s in walnut caramel on order. I'm a bit unsure about the caramel.

Right on !!! You’re going for it!!
I plugged walnut caramel into the product page, looks great. I don’t think you have anything to worry about.
Stoked to see some pics when they arrive.

Thanks for the support. Aesthetics like colours and woods is something I struggle with.

Hey no worries. Thanks for all the great chats and q and a. I’ve learned tons over the last year. And I’ve enjoyed discovering tons of great music and how to make my system sound fantastic without spending a ton of money just playing with placement and setup.
Are the m2 in your living room cherry chestnut too? Matching to subs?

The M2OW are walnut bordeaux as shown in the first image except all my Axioms are naked. The second image is the 125 in cherry chestnut. The last is my Freedom wearing its cherry chestnut woodie. I initially thought the walnut bordeaux was too red. But not so in my livingroom with subdued natural light. When I got the Freedom, I immediately loved that cherry chestnut. I hope the subs come out as good. I was one who never cared how long it took to get my speakers. With the wood finishes though, I am anxious to see how they look.

For my next pair of 500s, do you all prefer oak espresso (1st photo) or walnut espresso?

I love it when you speak for everyone, Charles. The walnut espresso is indeed my fave. On my M2 bookshelves, I've found it's quite a bit darker than the image on the Axiom site. The darker application does not allow the walnut grain to shine the way it does on the Axiom image.

My dual 125s in cherry chestnut have shipped. Shipped within 12 days of order even though I asked for 21 days. I am more excited about these than the 600s. I've been very curious to see what the lowest priced Axiom sub sounds like.
