1) Do you like this finish?

It is a nice option, but it doesn't go with the rest of my equipment and room colors. My wife is the one who decides finishes anyways.

2) What other finishes would you like to see in a speaker like this?

Black is nice. But anything that goes with light oak equipment rack would be fine.

3) What color would you most like to see offered for a subwoofer (in addition to black)?

Anything that goes with light oak equipment rack.

1) Do you like this finish? Yes, it matches all of our door handles and lamps in the living room

2) What other finishes would you like to see in a speaker like this? How about light tan, gray, green, etc. to match colors of paint on the wall. In fact, what about custom color orders?

3) What color would you most like to see offered for a subwoofer (in addition to black)? I think some of the cherry, maple, oak, etc. wood veneers to match coffee/end tables in the house. Make it look like an upscale piece of furniture! That would have 100% wife acceptance!

1) Do you like this finish?

Yes, it's looks fine, nice and subdued

2) What other finishes would you like to see in a speaker like this?

I like the finish but I think a more coppery color should be an option--it would fit our color scheme better. If a smooth finish is an option, then brushed aluminum, cherry, burnt sienna, piano black, and ivory would look nice.

3) What color would you most like to see offered for a subwoofer (in addition to black)?

A subwoofer would likely be placed on the floor out of sight, so the color and finish is not so important. For marketing purposes, it should probably be the same as the main Orbs. I'd go for flat black.

1) Do you like this finish?

Yes, its different and offers more options

2) What other finishes would you like to see in a speaker like this?

Some wood colored finishes. I currently own the white finish.

3) What color would you most like to see offered for a subwoofer (in addition to black)?

I like the sub being in black but if a wood finished speaker came out then a matching sub would be nice.

1) Do you like this finish? - Yes, the finish is quite unique. I think it would look great in anyone's home.

2) What other finishes would you like to see in a speaker like this? - Other than a common flat black finish, white, glossy black, tan, dark grey, Ferrari red or yellow, walnut or even a dark cherry red would look good.

3) What color would you most like to see offered for a subwoofer (in addition to black)? Besides black, any colour matching the above mentioned colours would look good. However, the size of the sub might limit the colour as I do not know if someone would like a big yellow sub in their living room!

1) Do you like this finish?
Yes, i like it a lot. It has a modern look that wouldn't work if someone wanted natural wood speakers, but a speaker like this looks much better than anything Bose has.

2) What other finishes would you like to see in a speaker like this?
I can see people wanting it in white

3) What color would you most like to see offered for a subwoofer (in addition to black)?
White could work for that too; wood-grain would be a good idea

I don't like this finish. I would prefer one of the metallic ones or actually a flat finish.

I would love to see a wood grain or even a flat black/brown finish, as well as some bright colors for a feminine audience. A clear glass or acrylic finish would be cool, too.

For a subwoofer, I would definitely love to see wood finishes as well as a pre-primed finish, so a customer could paint it whatever color he or she chooses.
