Ugliest Speakers???


I'm sure most of us would never select a speaker solely on appearance but after sonics it probably would be a criteria, as well as size, weight, color etc.
Looking through the November Stereophile I noticed a new speaker on page 21, the Loiminchay. I'm not sure I could live with this one. It may sound great, I don't know but the appearance of the speaker could never cut it for me, definitely not my style.
What's your take on this one? Any other candidates?

Ugliest speakers for me are the Oskar Veil Kithara but they do sound good.

Always believe that the main thing a system is suppose to do is giving a good sound.

Is look that important? I presume. A local dealer told me after I asked him why he was not carrying any Audio Note speakers is mainly because they don't look expensive even if they sound pretty good.

It is a shame that peoples will eliminate some products base on look. But it is a factor any shop have to take into consideration.
The Jadis Eurythmie reminds of the alien band singer in "Return of the Jedi". The new B&W reminds me of a character in the video game "Virtua Fighter" whose made out of logs.
Do any of you remember the Joly line of products from Taiwan?
Was wondering if we were going to get the Eurythmies.

On AA, they have been compared to Spongebob Squarepants and also Yosemite Sam (in addition to the Star Wars singer).
cones look ugly, but many of the cabinets are not.

who wants to look at an ugly cone, when you can look at a flat, thin sleek and elegant speaker, like a magnepan.

the thinner the batter. thick speakers are ugly.

panels rule, don't be an acoustic suspension fool !
