Whats beech look like ?

As requested
I can email you a larger version if you wish.
I cannot verify the colour acurracy of the picture, but from memory, it's pretty close.

Computers are supposed to work on 1's and 0's - in other words "Yes" or "No" - why does mine frequently say "Maybe"?......

Thanks Blythe

I think this picture shows a little more accurate colour of a Beech NBL:

Pale wood, Beech included, darkens with age. My Garrard 401's plinth is made from American ash and was a bleached white when new. Five years later it has darkened to a golden colour and is a perfect match for my Cherry Hutter stand.

Beach will also darken.

Here's a pixture of a fairly new Intro2 in Cherry.

As Mick says, wood veneers darken with age. I've had to use some fill-in flash, but it's a reasonably 'real-life' image, largely taken with daylight.

Alcos picture is what they look like new, but as Mick says it yellows slightyl with age although Blythe's picture is a bit too yellow

I did a wood shop project in college in the 70's, a jewelry box in cherry. It was a light color with beautiful grain just like my cherry Spendor speakers are now. But now, after 30 years, is a beautiful dark reddish color. I also used to live in a modern house with pine T&G and it yellowed over the 7 years and had to be stained a grey to take out the color and make it nicer. So expect any wood speaker to change with age.

Life is analogue

having done the paving slab thing, couple of things from my experience:

1. tightened up bass
2. made treble a bit sharp

Eventually got rid of 'em - but my floor is hardwood (oak) on concrete. Dunno about on other floors.

Hi,

I have cherry Intro2's and they have gone darker too. They are much whiter under the grill. Anyway to get the colour to be consistent? As there is a definite 'tan' line when i take the grills off!

Would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks,
Stan
