They're coming out with ugly colors now. Red, white. The titanium gray is very pretty. Would be great with black drivers.
But you still CANNOT GET BLACK DRIVERS IN ANYTHING BUT FERRARI RED.
Ridiculous.

The ole Black and orange is fine. Especially if you're big into Halloween.
After the beating KEF has taken regarding color scheme, black and blue might be more fitting.For the LS-50, I'd like to see KEF do black cabinets with champagne colored drivers.

Anyone know how/where to buy the raw drivers? I would love to build my own caps w these.
with a bigger market in the rainbow.
More "non-audiophiles" buying them because they fit better into their visual lifestyle and getting hipped to audiophile sound?
No downside and a smart move on their part.

According to a rep posting on AVS, these flavors are a limited run.
"Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to inform you that we are now taking pre-orders for the Special Edition LS50 finishes. This is a limited run product and once we are sold out we will not be getting any more. You can order them at the link below or visit a local KEF retailer. We are expected to start shipping on 11/23/2015

Sincerely,
KEF Direct"
Personally I think they would be smart to come out with a LS50 G model, that has a grille cover. Don't mind mine in the nude, but for some folks, that's a deal killer.
Is that the only way to NOT GET the goofy orange or blue driver is to get RED.How about putting the black drivers which PEOPLE WANT (and I know they've had letters about this) in more than JUST ONE COLOR (which most people don't want)?????
What a ridiculously short-sighted lost opportunity.

There's no link to the variations and I'm not inclined to do a search
so I'll take your word for it. I suspect that speaker will be in production
for a long time; they may as well have some fun with it.
Wait 'till the Kelly Green with the orange driver comes out for St. Patrick's Day.

I don't know, I think the orange driver looks good with titanium. And I'm not a big fan of the black driver. But the blue driver is just fugly. The white would have been better with the black driver. And the red might have been better with a silver/titanium driver. Hard to please everyone when we all have different tastes I guess.
To each their own......
