I think the ones on eBay do look a little bit orange but the images aren't that far off the true colour (compare the colour of the speakers vs the colour of the floor). I think the speakers look quite similar to my cherry pair. They are a "dark" cherry (although how much of that is down to aging I don't know - I do think my natural ash M3s are darker now than when new).
Hope this helps,
Chris

If anyone has any suggestions to get rid of the extra weight from the center channel, please let me know. I want to revisit Trifield once I get my new sub. Have you tried playing with the EQ setting? That's supposed to be there to correct for frequency response issues in the centre.

Chris,
I think my pair (Mk1 96/24) are closer to the eBay colour than to George's avatar (looks a little bit pink). Mine are definately more orange.

For reference the floor is a natural oak and the cabinet on the right is oak too (I think). The Speaker is Cherry and fairly new. Most light colored woods do tan (darken) with age. Some also bleach if exposed to a lot of light.
