Out of context with a specific interior, I prefer black. Otherwise, it depends on the room.
The Cyclicality of Black Vs Silver
Lately, I can't decide if I prefer the silver or black faceplates which are available for my various Audio Research components.
This reminds me that just like car manufacturers, audio companies seem to go back and forth between silver and black cases, no doubt to try and grab the market's attention with something "new"?
Personally, I can't stand silver or chrome trim on any cars made after about 1975, but I notice that some new cars are going back to chrome trim around the windows.
What are your thoughts on silver? Black? Or God forbid, iPod or 1980's Adcom white?
What makes for the most timelessly stylish audio components?
Happy Thanksgiving,
