Actually now that I look again, the red in the picture looks a little lighter than mine.
The reds are in my basement listening/TV/kids play room. I have free range (pretty much) to do what I need since it's a utility space. So, I have ugly fiberglass (covered) panels all over the place, two stereo racks, and painted speakers! When I first got the 1.5s, I thought the shade was just a touch light. When I sent them back for the Pro upgrade they repainted the cabs for me. Now, they're just perfect. I never get tired of looking at them. They look like some of the cooler, metallic reds that the auto manufacturers are using.
I don't have the full gloss, rather their satin finish because it was a lot cheaper. Now I wish I had the full shine, boo hoo, cry me a river.
