Maggies are always black (or white) in pics that I see.

The webpage says they're available in gray.

Anyone ever try the gray? Any pics to show of gray magnepans?

I'm just idly curious what they would look like...

I always liked the vintage burlap bag (?) fabric but I guess it was not acoustically transparent...

These were my first Maggies (1992 to 2012).

Black stiles with grey fabric was not my first color choice but these were playing and the only 2.6s in stock. Once I heard them the color
combination became moot and I grew to like it.

I still love the black cloth/cherry rails the most---very classy!
