For white only. It looks great in a room actually. But think carefully if you use projector. It's glossy and it's all I see when the lights off. I cover my d5c with some black velvet.

That's the shipping carrier's fault, not Adorama's. My personal experience is that FedEx is worse than UPS.

As for the D17's, they have plenty of padded protection in the factory box. The speakers are also covered with both a plastic and a black cloth bag. Another nice touch is that the speaker is upside down in the box so when you open the box (with the arrow pointing up) you can install the base and feet on to the speaker then flip over the box to remove the speaker in the upright position.

Weird. When I come in through the link, it shows a pair set, when you have to select options, it says single speaker $899, pair $999. If I select pair, then toggle back to single, the landing page of the set has disappeared. Come back in through the link and you can start over.

That's why I didn't get a D5C center to match my D17's. I'm probably gonna get a Dymension DM10 center the next time it goes on sale. It was on sale for $230 but ended a couple days ago and I missed it while I was deciding.

The DM10 is similar to the D5C. Same size, same tweeter, (2) 5.25" mid drivers but the DM10 also has a 9" passive radiator and it's wrapped in black cloth.

Sound wise, I have no complaint. D5c matches well with my D15. If price is right, I assume nothing wrong with DM10. Just to be clear that D5c has black version as well, just not the sale price. A piece of black velvet cover works well for me, and cheap!

If you have an ad blocker installed, it may redirect you to a different place. I had to disable my pi-hole to get to the sale page.

People rediscovering why HT speakers are black 😀
Black glossy still reflects light… why so many speakers are high gloss piano black will always be a mystery to me… matte black is my preference.
