Well, I'd place my order for an Axess only to be told 2 weeks later that Naim were no longer making black speakers (so much for the great service ) So it seems I have no chance of getting an n-cent, axess or even an axent. Strange that they discontinue something because it doesn't sell and yet it's the only one that's sold out... Anyways, can anyone recommend a speaker similar to the Axess that is available in black?

You could always buy another colour and either have it re-finished or simply spray it black to match your exisiting..........
Try contacting a furniture renovation company for a quote and speak to your dealer, he might be able to advise...
