Faceplates Silver or Black???????

What is your preference? Or, does it even matter?

The preferred 'faceplate color' pendulum sweeps back and forth over the years. Often, leaving us with a mixture of components.

Does anyone else take aesthetics into account when deciding on component selection?

Would you consider NOT purchasing the piece you know you want or know you should have, but couldn't pull the trigger because it didn't match your system?

Any other "sick puppies" out here?

Thoughts on where the trend is taking us now?

Black, silver sometimes gold. If I like the look of a component itself it does not have to match the rest of my system.

On some brands the nomenclature is more visible on one over the other and that would have me choose black or silver.

Aesthetics are a factor, I appreciate the sound the build, feel and the look of my systems. Pride of ownership and listening covers many factors for myself.
