Looking for a black brushed mental bookshelf speaker


I am putting together a setup for my bedroom.  It will be a much smaller setup.  I have straightwire cables all wrapped in black (espressivo and black thunder ii), samsung frame 55in tv with black frame, naim uniti atom and furman ref 15i.  I am looking for a pair of speakers which have black brushed casing.  I have considered the magico a1's but they are a bit more than I'd like to spend, I'd found them for 5k.  I had been looking at the krell lat-2 but unfortunately they sold for more than I wanted to spend, 3k.  Does anyone know of any really good bookshelf speakers which have black brushed metal casing like the krell and magico for under 3k on the used market?  Thanks.

Looks like you're either goth or into "heavy mental".  But perhaps that's just being sentimental.
Ugh, mental, I mean metal speakers...why? Wood, wood wood......metal is for an automobile....I guess if you want to look at a phone booth in your living room, I prefer a furniture look.
Heard Magico's raising the price of the A1's $1200 more to $8600 at the end of the month just an FYI. There an excellent speaker. 
Buy the bookshelf speaker of your choosing, then apply your desired aesthetic finish to them.
I might check out the Gallo Strata II’s. They like being close to walls. Set properly they will image like nobody’s business. The CDT tweeter is one of my favorites. They are spec’d to 65 hz, but I think that’s generous. Would pair very nicely with a Rel t5i or t7i sub. Even with a good sub you’d be around $3k. 
A/D/S 200's available now on eBay for "Buy it now" price of $160 + $30 shipping. An excellent small metal cabinet speaker that easily sounds as good as the more costly others listed above! Black finish, too!
Genelec look to be active.   Jern Audio looks interesting but I wonder if you can get the same brushed look with cast iron which you can in the magico and krell which are aluminum.  I think this is what naim uses for the uniti atom.  Dynaudio I can't tell if they're even metal as come in wood finish or painted black it looks like.
Aerial 5T don't seem to have a brushed metal cabinetl;  high gloss Rosenut, Nero metallic black, high gloss Ebony seem to be finishes.
Take a look at the Aerial 5T in black. Don't need a stand, can be placed 2 inches from wall, and sound great. 
Having a wife that's mental is enough for me, I think I'll just stick to normal speakers.
