Looking for a "black cherry" or dark chocolate type finish for a surround/bookshelf?

Hey all,

I have been trying to find matching surrounds for my Swan Diva setup for the last couple months but have not had much luck as this is their x.1 line and stock is pretty much cleared out. My MFW-15 sub should be here in a couple weeks and I want it to all come together at once!

Can you guys suggest some other brands I should check out? Since these are surrounds and are mostly used for movies/tv/gaming I'm not overly concerned about timber matching. Here's a pic to give you an idea of the finish:

Maybe a little more red than you are looking for but, these might work (on the right):

If you don't care about timbre, then maybe just get some black Swans or other mfg, or even some white ones if they will be mounted?

Swan doesn't make bookshelf speakers for surrounds?

I'll second Axiom. You can basically get the speakers in any finish you can think of. They can even color match your speakers stain to a sample you give them. As well as the QS8 being excellent surround speakers.

I'll third Axiom as I believe I've seen that exact finish in their custom shop.

I know you said you didn't care about timbre, but the Axioms are going to sound noticeably different than the Divas IMO.

Appreciate the info guys, pretty cool what Axiom is doing. Looks like I might have finally found a pair of used 2.1s to match though!
