If it sounds beautiful, it looks beautiful.
However, if two different units sound the same, I'll take the better looking one every time. That's why some audio mfgs offer custom finishes at a higher price for those audiophiles that want to look good too.
I remember when the Infinity Renaissance 90 speaker came out. The factory colors were black oak, blonde oak and golden oak. A piano black finish was available that doubled the price of the speaker. It was gorgeous. And of course they sold a few of the piano black model.
