That was a couple of years ago if I remember correctly. Very hard to get. I wonder if they will allow custom color orders. I believe they do.
You can disassemble them and paint in any color you fancy in any auto body shop
That's one sexy setup!

Since it's all metal, you could probably also be really fancy and do a vitreous enamel coating
Yep, only 100 pairs produced I believe. I've never seen them for sale used.
Magnificent!

afaik custom colors are basically "you have to ask", there is a significant upcharge if they say yes, and they're much less likely to say yes if you're only buying two speakers. More likely to do so if you're buying a lot for multichannel or a whole studio or whatever.
There are also unpainted versions:

It's weird that they offer the cheaper models in 120 colors but the Ones in 2-3 max

It's because the Ones are meant to be used as studio tools. Heard but not seen.
The installation models are aimed at cafes, restaurants and other places where they need to fit in with the decor.

That's the dream
However, even for those you can choose between three colors.

One could argue that neither black nor white is a color, meaning that grey isn't a color either. And the RAW version doesn't even have paint.
Genelec are actually going: "No color for you!"

What's the Finland reference? Or am I just misreading the word?
