    paint it black, and make a grill. IMO

    Wood veneer finish - black walnut would look nice with exposed drivers.

    the vener sounds good but it might be hard to cut the circles around the ports and drivers.

    Looks great. I've got some extra grill cloth if you need any.

    Certainly a matter of taste, but I happen to really like the black/silver/white look that I used... even if it does face the ground.

    I personally wouldn't try anything fancy. Quiet subtleness is a good route when you *know* what you've got.

    Anyway.. I like it.. Scroll down to the third pic.

    Completely personal taste, but I wouldn't like wood grain.. it would have as much if not more visual impact as the drivers. The background should be just that.. it should enhance, at most, and not detract. I'd go for a basic color... black, white, dark gray..

    Course, I'm a slave to style.
