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?

Oddly enough my wife thinks my Heresy III in cherry are very attractive.  
Every time I see a pic of the Lawrence Violin Speakers I think about cashing
in my Funeral funds at my Credit Union .
Heresy III very classy, nice looking, not too big box speakers on low stands. Me like! WAF very good too!

These could have been big sellers if the port had been strategically located.  :-)

Have not seen for a while, but I suppose the speaker I recall that I found perhaps most visually appealing of all are Jadis Eurythmie.
