What do you consider the most when choosing a pair of speakers?


Hi, just being curious here. 

When choosing a pair of speakers, do you consider design first? or the sound? or a particular brand? 

I want to say the sound matters the most for me, but my wife would never allow anything industrial looks or a design that goes against her taste regardless of the sound quality. 

What are your thought?

@monacousticusa , IMHO if you are not freely giving out full measurements in my mind you are hiding something. That's either you don't have them or there is something wrong with them.  Only to people who audition at shows? I would not even bother with that attitude.

Listening to a speaker anywhere but in my space is a near meaningless venture. The room colors the sound too much.  The measurements tell me far more about how it will behave in my room than an audition ever will outside my house. Most speaker vendors provide inadequate information. That is bad enough. Providing none wastes my time. I won't bother.
