Usually I like my speakers to be visually unobtrusive but with at tweet I'm thinking cabs finished to a high furniture grade and keeping with the art deco style with straight lines and rounded corners.
I do particularly like that the tweeter is white/ivory coloured.
PS: How do you post a picture here? If I go into advanced and click 'insert image' it asks me for a URL which I haven't got and if I did it won't let me copy&paste so I have to carefully type in the usually long and obscure URL.

It's funny how most tweeter faceplates are black. This is the first white one and it seems to have had a substantial effect on perception of good looks. It's a Corian waveguide - I think I could 3d print (and sand and polish) one in white plastic with a waveguide and swap out the black faceplate on say a $100 tweeter and it would be very sweet.
That diamond is pistonic to 50kHz! Did you look at how smooth the response is and how high it goes?

It really is colour and that diffusor/protector thingy together which does it for me.
The version in the speaker link Erik provided left me quite cold but it is black and the protector thing is different.
The white version just screams 'art deco' at me and really it should be made from bakelite to keep with the vibe. ;-)

Hmm, I don't think so but I like their selection, especially of professional coaxials. 🙂
Best,

I completely agree also.
What I do love though is their reasonable shipping costs to Canada and when they have good sales on components, which is constantly.
Their customer service has been good to me too.
I called up the phone number and someone answered with a "hello" on a Sunday.
(Never a good sign for a place that shouldn't be open on Sunday.)
I asked them if they were "Zalytron" and they said "no."
I thanked them for their time and hung up.
Double checked that I called the right number, and I had.
Too bad, as I'm in NYC right now and I would've picked up some speakers to bring home.
