??? What Is Your Favorite Speaker Finish ???

I agree about Legacy's superb build quality. I had a pair of Focus XD speakers in Rosewood and they were stunning. Unfortunately, the XD was too big for my room. Planing on a Rosewood Signature SE in the not too distant future.

As I stated in my prior post,  I love a beautiful wood finish especially when the speaker is a part of your home decor.

However, in my dedicated audio room, the matt black finish on my main speakers and subs is ideal for me.  In a dimly lit room only the sound remains and the gear fades into darkness.

Scientific fact:  when the brain does not have to waste neuron loops on visual distractions,  more of your attention focuses on the music!  I always felt good about the fact all my audio dollars went towards good sound in this system.

@corelli true BUT,you can always turn the lights off so as to not be distracted by a beautiful finish,you can NOT however make an ugly finish disappear in the daylight.
