I don't know about that, most of the pro audio equipment, mostly
broadcast, that I remember from the post WW2 tube era was painted in
shades of blue, green, umber, gray, silver, and the like, with very
little black. Black seems to have been the color of choice before WW2,
and of course is the standard in home audio equipment today.
