(Do you think the Maax 3's will sound as good as my Bose 901's? I spray painted them yellow to match the furniture, and they really look good.)

Congratulations Intouch1, your speakers are really beautiful and I can only imagine how good they must sound,

WOW, I'm jealous now

I wish I had my room big enough to host them.

I really like the look of them in white, not near as overbearing as they are in black. Enjoy them and have fun finding their final arrangement.
Regards,
Jim

thanks everyone for your kind comments. have been glued to my listening couch for the best part of 3 days and letting it all sink in......
will see that i get my halcro dm78 to my current location within the next days to see how they will fare with the maxx. i have found the ARC 210 to be lacking in grip on the maxx's. the pass x-350 seems to be doing a better job. for the moment at least.

And yes, white turned out to look very good. It's also a timeless colour that blends with whatever interior.

Maybe you could post th pic i mailed you showing the whole room ? Will gie everyone here more insight as to the setup.

I love seeing the final product finally in their new home! Was great to see this system going through (via photos) Wilson Audio, finding out when they were going to ship, hearing that they did ship, and then seeing them in these pictures. It's really neat!

The system and room look amazing!! I am right there with you with being glued to my room for the past few days. My husband and I have listened to more music and watched more movies in the last couple days then we have in a very long time!

Congrats and thank you so much for sharing your pictures with us!

First time I've seen Wilson's speakers in white. A nice touch to it.
