In Reply to: Loudspeakers - why so ugly! posted by Eldragon@gmx.com on July 30, 2012 at 08:08:55:
You don't like wilson, but most speakers are not black monolithic boxes. Not by a long shot. How many high-end speakers are only available as black monolithic boxes? It's a preposterous claim.
If people would rather get the best performance for the money they will gravitate towards companies that don't spend a lot of time and money making their speakers look pretty. Almost everyone is on a budget so it makes sense to buy something where a small proportion of the cost is going to aesthetics.
Everything doesn't need to be about pleasing wives and girlfriends. Chances are she's already making almost all the decisions about how the house is decorated. If she can't handle one spot where they guy has his stuff then she's a selfish brat and he's better off without her. When did it become normal for every decision about everything to be contingent on female approval?
