What is the most popular wood finish ?

I am looking for opinions on wood veneers for my speakers that i am going to resell . I am about to have them professionally redone for resale . Any opinions on species that would bring me top dollar ? Maple , cherry, mohagony, are a few i am considering . Or is a black gloss automotive paint a good idea ? Thanks all .

Another vote for Rosewood, after that I like piano glass black!

Walnut Burl or Flame maple. You may want to try automotive finishes as well. Popular with Wilson Audio and Zu.

Ebony is my favorite. I especially like the ebony finish used by Proac.
BTW, what speakers are you prepping?

What kind of speakers are they, by the way? Also, do let us know what you go with and if possible, take some pics for us too! On a side note, I do like the way some of the totems look in a gloss white, red or blue!
