For the Audiophile with a taste for good design(looks)....a question.


What are your favorite audio components and speakers based on the way they look (looked).  Yes, I know that sound is what counts and that is my major influence, but I do enjoy well designed/good looking products.   I no longer do, but did have a collection of art deco radios, both table models and consoles.....and that was all about design rather than their audiophile qualities.  Thanks

Black boxes--since everyone buys them, that must be what everyone wants. Serious answer?-- Dodd Audio. Gorgeous wood fascia. Or how about putting marble faceplates on those black boxes--and the buyer chooses his/her favorite rock, like kitchen counters? (Acora makes speakers out of granite...and they even sound wonderful too).  P.S. I like exposed, glowing tubes.
