What's most important to WAF-size, shape, finish?

What do you think is most important (regarding loudspeakers) :-)
for the wives/significant-others WAF=wife acceptance factor?
Size, shape, texture, finish, color, sound quality,etc. in order of importance? What do you think or what has been your actual experiences? Your comments regarding 2-channel AND home theatre are appreciated.
Thanks and happy listening!

Size (smaller the better), then shape. I once mentioned trying a differenct speaker in the home office from the B&W CDM-1 and I got a "I like how they look". "Cuter than the others".

Waf is not a factor in a good relationship. If you have to ask don't do it. If you don't have to ask let us know what you get. I suggest a pair of avantgarde trios in lavender.

I found that if you explain to her that the little invisible speakers she likes sound like s@#t, then show her a pair of speakers twice as big and ugly than the ones you really want. You can then compromise and get the ones you want , as long as they match the rest of the furniture.
