The best looking speakers


I have 2 systems in my house. I am quite happy with what I have.
but I was wondering, what are the best looking speakers out there?
I haven’t taken up the question of new speakers with my wife, but more aesthetically pleasing speakers might help my cause/diseas.

I have been quite impressed with my Focal Sopra 2’s in Imperial Red.  I own a modest ranch home and my living room is also my listening room (for now).  My system occupies the majority of one wall and the fact that I am a single woman means I don’t have to answer to anyone but myself for design sense, taste, cost or volume!!  I am fortunate in that sense.  I had listened to the Focal’s off and on for several years, comparing them to other speakers in the same price range, and was, again, fortunate to have a brother-in-law in the business and a few friends to guide me.  The Focal’s look great and sound better.  I listen to vinyl and cd’s with vinyl being my preferred.  I’m older now so this will be my last system and I couldn’t be happier.
First, I don’t think there is a right or wrong. I’ve really enjoyed the varying opinions and learned of some other options. Speakers are awesome, all of them are lovely in their own way. The boenicke look really cool. Still a huge fan of Devore and Zu audio.
everyone has their own style. Asking questions and listening to various answers is a great way to learn.
Altec Capistranos.  1950s design with solid wood top. Incredible piece of console furniture and terrific sound quality. I had a total furniture restoration done so mine are like a brand new pair.  Reversed the baffle board on one so they are a mirror-imaged pair since these were originally sold as one in the monophonic days.  Original owner did buy two so they are close match.    Years ago, I used to have a pair of lacquered Mahogany Khorns w white cane grills, and those were pretty unbelievable to look at.

Had to weigh in on this discussion.

As some other have said: Sonus Faber Are great looking. I also like Totem and Boenicke and my wife would be ok with all of those.

I happened to mention Kii Three to my wife, more as dream speakers than something to buy right now. My wife took one look and said they were the ugliest speakers she has seen and that they would never come into our house. My dream was shattered.
prof....good for you, as, it should be.....The point I was making was based on me, and my experiences....Great example. My ex wife ( we were together for 34 yrs ), did not like the look of many speakers I have owned ( not just speakers, such as cables, elevated, on wood / ceramic blocks, etc ), but appreciated my listening habit ). I always had my own dedicated audio room, which was pretty much used by me, and listening buddies visiting. I was never " limited " to what was brought into " my space ". This was also an agreement the ex and I had made ( sort of like a prenup, lol ), prior to our engagement. When she visited my, at that time, current home, during our dating period ( I was 24 ), it was quite clear, she was not as " accepting " as your wife. I helped hundreds of listeners over the years, in putting systems together, and there were more conflicts, than not, when it came to the " looks " department. I do appreciate, as well, the fact that you need to be pleased, visually, with your speaker choices. I would own an " ugly " speaker, if it gave me the performance that satisfied my enjoyment of listening. I suppose, my modified Klipsch Lascalas, and the subs I had built, would not please many, on a visual level. Again, these have been my experiences. So, I do understand, not " all " spouses, are like yours.......Enjoy ! MrD.
