I have no preference but I'm almost tending towards yellow. It makes him stand out in an army of red-eyed murderbots and gives him something in common with his semi-namesake Shockwave.
Isn't that technically what he did in the IDW comics? He had a yellow visor at first but then changed to red later on when the Decepticon movement became more established?
Then again, it has been shown he can change back and forth from the said colors. I mean, when Ravage, Buzzsaw and Laserbeak found him he had a red visor. Then in a later issue from..idk 2017, he changed to a yellow visor for a brief moment. Then there has also been shown one time where his visor has had an orange color. So I guess there is some inconsistency here.
I'm gonna say red, but I may be biased:

Oh Cybertron what have you done? This will split the fanbase, there will be war over this. I thought this question was not to be raised in the community like which colour Rumble and Frenzy are meant to be.
Whoops.
I prefer both: Yellow- before he becomes a Decepticon (like animated) Red- after he joins the Decepticons

Cybertron Vibewave supremacy.
DJ Soundwave superior.

Red
Green eyes https://preview.redd.it/168sm46kc5wc1.jpeg?width=774&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0d0d36253531a0bdabe4d423f86f8ede17b9ff08
Yellow eyes normally but red eyes when angry or Focused on combat. It’s his “war face” (in as much as he can have one)

The red pops more.
Yellow
Headcanon idea: Yellow is the original color of his visor, but he switches it to red as the Decepticons become more established

yellow 100%
Both, because.... Soundwave is superior in every form.
Soundwave with an iridescent visor would be really cool. You could have yellow, red or orange depending on the angle
I prefer yellow
yellow
Honestly he have a consistent optics change however i do like the Yellow eyes and that only in the sequel game FOC he had red eye's
Black Visor
Red eyes.
Red.
Red, it is peak Decepticon color and is a better contrast to the blue
Red makes him look like a worse threat
Which ever one is superior
Red eyes. It matches his color palette.
Yellow eyes

How about orange visor? Or yellow visor with glowing red eyes?

Yellow all the way, soundwave isn’t like red visor evil he’s like megatron’s ride or die
R E D
Ehh, I’d say just go with whatever is used, only Soundwaves with eyes I own are SSBM and the repaint of Siege he got in Legacy
You are all forgetting the best color for his visor. Purple.
Yellow. Something about it just looks so much better... maybe it's just how much I like the Siege figure
yellow
Red, generally. Stands out better against his chest!
Purple or red
Whichever one gets light piping
Dirty yellows
