I'd like to modernize my Klipsch Forte speakers (circa 1989) by making them black. But how? They are oak veneer in the classic 1980s "golden oak".

Ideas:
1) Black Lacquer spray (rattle can)
2) Black Dye
3) "Ebonize" with steel wool/vinegar solution
4) (last choice). Apply new black veneer.
Not sure how any of this will work considering the existing finish (which I'll strip and sand).
Thoughts?
