Horizontal looks best to me because the speaker sits horizontally.
Re: Need feedback please!
Yes, Horizontal looks more natural for this one..
Re: Need feedback please!
My original reaction was that I like the horizontal grain better, but that was with the center in isolation. When looking at a picture like this one, I kind of like the consistency of having the grain vertically aligned for all 3 speakers. So I'm really no help on this. :)

That looks familiar! Soon to have an ELX Horizon in there though. :)

We are prepping for a large production run of Horizon cabinets and I would like some feedback regarding how we orient the grain.
Our stock cabinet looks like this (vertical grain)

However, customers have requested we run the grain horizontally, which would look like below. Horizontal grain is more common for a center and tends to make the cabinet look less bulky.

Please let me know which grain orientation you prefer.
Thanks in advance!
Vertical

I think this settles the question. Although I voted for horizontal, that was not thinking through context. I think the three speakers should match.

Beauty! I refrained from replying because I didn't have context of all 3 speakers on display (although I was secretly pulling for vertical myself to match my towers), and don't have immediate plans to purchase a center channel, but this confirms it for me. I vote vertical :cool:
Re: Need feedback please!
I would think horizontal would still be a better fit because of the orientation of the speaker. All 3 are rectangular, and the center channel's orientation is different. If we have a picture of the horizontal also it will help. :)
