I personally say charcoal grey. More dignified than the trite and overused black (but that my speakers had a different finish!!). Try seeing what appeals to you and allows you to focus best. It will need to be dark to help prevent refraction interfering with your watching. Charcoal grey is pretty good. You could even go crazy and use a certain amount of tint to have the refractions of that color enhance their percieved brightness, but that is probably a bad idea.
