Frankly, bright yellow or red on these speakers would further limit the already limited appeal for this design. You have to have to have the right decor to assimilate these speakers in bold colors. In my Tudor home with traditional furniture they would look bizarre in yellow or red.

When we bought our G2s choosing the colour was the hardest part (apart from paying for them). Of the standard colours my wife and I both agreed that black was out, I liked white but she didn't, we both liked Borollo Red but it didn't match the decor of the room.
We drove around a few car showrooms looking at the paint colours, and eventually chose Mercedes Palladium Silver. We've never regreted the colour choice, or buying the G2s.

Yippee Ivan!!
You're seeing the light.  You'll not regret it. Pearl white might be nice in your house.

Yes, that Mercedes Palladium Silver is pretty good.

Having seen them at Bart's house, I love the form factor, way more than I had thought I would.
It looks as a piece of modern art and would look at home in any living room. Depending on the room, they can even add a splash of color. The added bonus is that they sound wonderful. My only issue with them is the grill which I think looks out of place and it seems that they would easily scratch the paint.

I would also suggest pearl white or even blue, as those colors would blend in nicely at your Cape home.
