    Cliff,

    I think that the tan-granite would match those cherry RTi70s pretty well. By the way, I just got the SVS PB1-ISD (in the standard black).

    Ug, none of the above. If I had to choose, Grey stone.

    I agree.......none of those look like something that I'd ever put in my living area. Subs aren't white, they aren't tan (unless it's a wood thing) and they're not yellow...ish. Black is perfectly ok in my book. Those speckled ones look like they were in the bed of a truck when they were spraying that permanent bed in the things........

    you would have thought alittle more creativeness on the colors, none of them are my favorite as i stated, But i wanted something other than black, BUT it also adds $50 bucks to the price, so maybe black is best suited.. and will be 50 less i have to save.....

    check out this color selection from SVS...unfortunately it only applies to B4-Plus:

    The ebony seems to match the LSi Ebony line up, I think...
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    I want my sub to be tie-dyed, and smell like pathchouli when the air shoots out of the ports. :D

    Cliff,

    I really like the sub, although UPS broke the baseplate somewhere along the line. SVS sent me out a new baseplate and some instructions on replacing it. They seem to be great as far as service goes. I haven't had a chance to calibrate it yet, which is highly recommended. Be aware also, that this thing is quite large (the size of an end table).

    Who the hell voted for golden rod? I hope you were joking. Possibly because you wanted to see if you could actually get a forum member to buy and use a sub resembling a block of cheese in his home?

    Im the only vote for white. All the other colors (except black, which wasnt listed) draw attention to themselves. White will blend in more, especially with pink in the room.

    I guess if you really wanted too. you could spray paint your current sub any color you wanted right now.. you could even paint a big ol smiley face.. or even flames on the darn thing! :eek:
