Thanks, all. I believe that the tan lines were made in my living room, The curtains were drawn, but (I did not mention this before) they are pretty flimsy, and white to boot. I'll give it a week in the same conditions, if it doesnt correct itself, I'll talk to B&W. Right now I have newsapers wrapped around them, and in it's design, at least, my solution seems to be ok. Today I am going to buy some posterboard and use that, as I can just see Murphy's Law kicking in, and the text from the newspaper being burned into my veneer. Unlikely, but perhaps possible. Thanks again, HEY P_MMK, when you moved the knic knacks on your table, did the marks ever go away???
NATURAL CHERRY VENEER
I left my new Nautilus 805's sitting in the bottom piece of the foam packing they were shipped in, and placed them on top of their boxes (free stands) while I went out of town for a week. When I came back, I took the speakers out of the foam bottoms and noticed a "tan line" where the speakers had been sitting down in the foam packing pieces. Here's the question, Does anyone know for sure, whether natural cherry continues to darken with time, forever, or if it reaches a certain point and then stops darkening alltogether, or slows dramatically??? My curtains were drawn, and very little light was able to enter the room. I believe that they will even out with time, but the Obsessive-Compulsive in me has decided to cover up the "tan" part and let the non tanned part acquire some sun. So.... Bring on the info!!!! Thanks.
