But I want purple.

In all honesty the dustcaps will not be a deal breaker. Nice to know they come in black for the v3's.Im more interested in what they sound like than how they look. I wish i could get the real wood but alas my kids take too much of my money. One wrecked his sled and the other blew the trans in his truck. And of course this dang christmas thing.

Ken, I like the all black idea.

Only with certain colors of speaker, though. I like my darker wood with silver. Maybe gold, though... you could make some really ugly speakers if you started anodizing the aluminum cones!
