Vandersteen's Low Spousal Acceptance Factor

I purchased the Vandy 2ce sigs recently, and really like their sound. I know everyone has strong opinions about them on this site, but to me they sound very natural and balanced. I've owned Revels, Thiels and Von Schweikerts, but they all sounded slightly colored and/or dry by comparison.

Enter the dreaded Spousal/Wife Acceptance Factor. My wife HATES the way the Vandy's look. Is there anyone who can modify/dress the Vandy's to make them more presentable?? Or, is there another speaker (even if it costs a little more) out there that has that first-order sound, but doesn't look like a black box? Help!

If you like the Vandy sound, I would look at picking up a used pair of Meadowlarks...

I can sympathize with you on the Vandy's, I too like their sound, and the better half (the wife) said, "there is NO way in HELL you are paying thousands of dollars to have it covered with an ugly black sock that looks like a box..."

heh, and I went looking in another direction...
