What do you consider the most when choosing a pair of speakers?

Hi, just being curious here. 

When choosing a pair of speakers, do you consider design first? or the sound? or a particular brand? 

I want to say the sound matters the most for me, but my wife would never allow anything industrial looks or a design that goes against her taste regardless of the sound quality. 

What are your thought?

Hmmmm, let me think.....how it sounds to my own ears? A good place to start, no?

Put the design and sound of your $25K speaker in a $5k package, then return.

Other than the enclosure being machined out of aluminum, it appears to present itself as every other speaker-"premium" or pedestrian level.

Measurements do the weeding, how it sounds to my ears is where I end , not start.

Any speaker could be equalized to achieve a response like the one in that graph. What is your point?
