Not many, maybe plain black looks??
General Comments
I have owned a pair of DC2000's for around 13 years. I chose them after listening to just about everything, at the time, between £200=, and £800=. These were going for around £300= at the time and I was lucky to get a discount.
I have played around with sound recording and mixing and find these play live recorded sound in a very natural way. They sound great at low and high levels. They may not be the best in the world, but I have never felt the need to change them. They are at home with all types of music. I know some huge speakers go lower - but these do a reasoable job in the bass. Some speakers are smoother but these make a beleivable sound - not artificial in any way.
Other speakers I have owned:- Rogers LS3/5A; Musical Fidelity MC2, Celestion Ditton 22; Celestion UL6; Celestion Ditton 15. - to mention a few.
The Tannoys have outlasted all these (although the LS3/5A's are still technically mine - my Mum is using them).
On average, people found this review very helpful

I have Tannoy's DC 2000 from 13 years of age, but the sound is so crispy and clear, that I won't leave my house any more. Bi-amping of this setup is what it's ment to be.

JBL L65 Jubal [Archive] - pink fish media
For a 30 year old design these monitors have their flaws but (not unlike Tannoy DC's in fact)but what they do right and there's plenty, they do in a truly astonishing way-I love them.

Can't think why I didn't recomend these (I was Geoff C) obviously these are not a current model. If you see a pair second hand in good condition they are a very worthwhile purchase. Test before you buy.
