Ugly vs Gogeous speakers

I know speakers should be all about sound but I can't help responding to the look as well and this presents me with a dilemma.

I have owned B&W Nautilus 803's for many years and love the sound and value (excellent sound for reasonable cost). I would love to upgrade but I (and wife) think that the retro Star Wars R2D2 looking speaker (802) is nothing we would have in our living space.

What do others think the best looking / sounding speaker is? Do looks matter to you?

Sound good, price is right. Who cares what they look like.


Well, some people have taste.    ;-)

The looks of this speaker might not appeal to all. But rumor is the tweeters are the best in the business!

Just got my new Audio Note AN/Jlx's yesterday the style is a bit retro but I think they look amazing in their olive wood finish. There is a pic on my system page. Oh and they sound fantastic too which is why I got them.
