Was this comment caused by the fact that you rarely have a chance to see loudspeakers that are uglier than yours? 

 

The REAL problem with Wilsons is that they SOUND so GOOD and at the same time LOOK so BAD.. 

The looks are an acquired taste that have grown on me over the years.

Just as I found many speakers in the "most beautiful" thread to be unappealing or outright ugly, here's one in the "ugly or angry" through that was comfortable and appealing when in my own room.  De gustibus........

If I’m not mistaken, there’s some seriously good engineering in those speakers as well.

I’ve always hated the looks of these.

Nice craftsmanship, debatable aesthetic virtues, poor technical design, exclusivity, massive price tag.

 

 

 

I think the craftsmanship and exclusivity are what sells these speakers more than anything. Nothing wrong with that, it's just not my cup of tea.

@The Computer Audiophile Chris, I can't stand the fact that your new speakers have been the object of jokes on this thread. IMO you deserve good looking speakers and I think many here will not only agree but would also be willing to pitch in to get you some decent looking transducers. As for your Wilsons - I think you don't have to worry - you can always donate them to some poor kid who only knows the sound of his cell phone speaker.. 

Hereby I kindly ask everyone who is ready to pitch in to upvote this post as a sign of his willingness to take part in this project. 

Too good :~)
