Thanks to everyone that posted their opinion in the other poll; here's the "finals"; this time I used a color that more closely resembles the light planks.
Please vote!!!!
Some more info for the ones that did not see the first poll (I deleted the details):
-Dedicated audio room.
-Have to mix colors....had some leftover from the dark color which was discontinued and bought two boxes of the light color; have limited light planks.
-Speakers will go on the balck squares side; these blocks are 8 inch high enclosures (sump pump on one side, built two for symmetry).
-Might put an area rug between speakers and listening position.
Actual Colors:

I'm looking at it from a buying perspective. (looking at a house that had that pattern on the floor)"she had the body of Venus, with arms." -
3, 5, or 6, I'm torn.
Edit, I choose 6.Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service. -
5 looks clean and can give directionality to the room.-izafar

6 and the rug.

5 looks cool, and easier.

Another vote for 5.I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

I voted for 6. Once you place furniture, throw rug, and gear in the room, it should look real nice.HT/2-channel Rig: Sony 50 LCD TV; Toshiba HD-A2 DVD player; Emotiva LMC-1 pre/pro; Rogue Audio M-120 monoblocks (modded); Placette RVC; Emotiva LPA-1 amp; Bada HD-22 tube CDP (modded); VMPS Tower II SE (fronts); DIY Clearwave Dynamic 4CC (center); Wharfedale Opus Tri-Surrounds (rear); and VMPS 215 sub

Rather than laying down a pattern, I'd put down a solid color with a contrasting border.
If it's just those choices, #5My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself. -
Thanks for all the comments; I would go with one color but the one I got the most of is discontinued, and I won't but the whole thing.I'll sleep over it, but it will be something like 5 or 6._________________________________________________

Here's what I did; not exactly what I had initially thought, but somehow similar. I think it looks good.
Thanks for all the opinions!!!

Looks great.
