Exactly! It only acts to hurt current loyal owners if matching the equipment is important to them and they want to upgrade and it also adds a level of misinformation as well as confusion to any new customers that are researching their products online which is their main form of marketing. If there were sound quality improvements I could see rationalizing such a decision but if it is based solely on cosmetics not everyone is going to see it as an improvement anyways especially individuals that currently own product and want to upgrade. When you have over a decade of marketing behind an entire lineup of speakers and it no longer reflects it from a aesthetic standpoint it puts into question how relevant all the marketing is behind the product currently which is being sold today.

I see this as more cost/benefit analysis than anything else. And the costs involved outweigh the benefits IMO.
