Just saying, I bet most speakers look better than the guy sitting in front of them.
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?

A million dollar question! Ugly? Gorgeous? http://www.milliondollarstereos.com/pix100k/MoonAudio_DarkStar.jpg |
I'm a sucker for a simple contemporary look with a beautiful wood finish, so here are some speakers I think look great: Tidal: https://i.pinimg.com/564x/07/ef/8c/07ef8cb965521e21e4283a62d1a7f332.jpg Joseph Audio Perspectives (I hope to buy a pair some time): https://i.pinimg.com/564x/39/13/52/3913522d7ac97099183530f341566d22.jpg Though I prefer this wood finish: https://d29pumjbf1ozmy.cloudfront.net/resize=w:700,h:470,fit:clip/rotate=deg:exif/output=quality:70/... And I love, love, love the look of the Thiel 2.7s that I now own in the premier ebony. They look exactly like these pictures: http://img.usaudiomart.com/uploads/large/779895-thiel-audio-cs27-pair-in-premium-composite-ebony-msr... I prefer grills on: http://img.usaudiomart.com/uploads/large/779884-thiel-audio-cs27-pair-in-premium-composite-ebony-msr... |
