First of all, let me apoligize for the asthetics driven question. But personaly I dont see why something cant be fuctional AND attractive without sacraficing either.
My Paradigm Studio 100v2's will be here any day now. I had to go with the black ash because the availible wood finishes (that are georgous BTW) Wouldnt have matched the dark walnut wood in my living room by about a half shade. Either available wood finish would have clashed horribly. The polished brass cones that come with them look great on the wood models, but are kinda out of place on the black ones. With the speakers being so boxy and plain (i think they are elegantly simple looking personaly) my wife demands some dressing up be done. Before she starts draping them in doyles, and putting candles on them perhaps you guys could suggest some classy looking spikes/cones. I would prefer a polished or brushed chrome/aluminum/silver type finish. The Martin Logan ETC spikes are great looking, particularly the gloss piano black w/ brushed aluminum tip model. Does anyone know where I can find good quality, attractive, and/or unconventional looking spikes like this that wont sacrafise sound in any way?
Thanks in advance,
Jason

check out audioadvisor.com, I think they have some nice black shiny cones at a very reasonable price from Germany.
They may not be suitable, but have a look at North Creek's spikes.Best regards,
