Grills on. My cat finds the drivers tempting.

I think he may have meant all black, not just the dust cap. I would prefer that too, all aluminum, but anodized black.

Grilles on 99.5% of the time, other 0.5% is for auditions.

Nah, I like the black/white look.

I really want a set of speakers in high gloss piano black with white grills smile

To help justify an upgrade to V3's I'll plan on upgrading to piano gloss black with the white grills too. Of course this will be after I can convince my wife that I need to spend several thousand dollars on speakers again, only this time the price will be double wink

Oh, if you like the eyeballs, then as Philippe said, just request it at the time if placing the order (easier over the phone). They have spares of the older style drivers, and can make more at any time should they run out.

I wanna know that more about aesthetically speaking than about sound quality. I wanna leave mine off but I was wondering about getting too much dust on them.

The cycling of the drivers makes them essentially self-cleaning in normal environments.

as long as you don't have any kids around them, or cats, the drivers should be safe.
