Faceplates Silver or Black???????

Elizabeth, you need to stay out of the Goodwill stores as your place will quickly look like a branch of a Goodwill store. However, I must admit I too visit on a weekly basis. Beats yard sales.

I heard a rumor that some NASA engineers (we know, lots of them are
Audiophiles) are working on a STEALTH Paining in a Bottle (or is it from Byebeeh
/Submarine protection, ultra secret, smuggled out from the Lab), available for
Audiophiles later.... you can spray it around your units and waves / resonances
will be absorbed. Not launched yet, because it absorbs light, too at the moment,
but they are working on it... Tested on Preamps with truly spectacular results
(silver front from what someone told me).... and you can listen to your music
with higher volume based on that .... stay tuned ... there will be also a WAF
version available... from Clive Christian .... (Number OnePointOne....but that is a
rumor at the moment)

Prefer silver matte finish when possible. At this point all visible components are silver so I'm pretty happy.
Hey, let's have a thread on which color LEDs we prefer.

I don't mind the colour but I care about the design. Take the new Rega Osiris integrated for example - I could *never* buy it, no matter how magical it sounds. I mean, wt* were they thinking?

Do you plan to listen, or look at it? All things being equal, I prefer silver. Its never a deciding factor for me though. I currently have both in my systems.
