Ugliest Component of the Year 2024!

I’d say its a toss up between that laughable Tekton speaker pictured above and the supreme joke of Tralfamador...actually I think the real prize should go to complete system composed of Mac separates with Tektons as the main left and right with Tralfamadors as the surrounds with a phantom center. Anyone support that notion? And now for the real question: Who among you could walk into a room filled with a system like I just described without laughing out loud?

The ugliest thing about the McIntosh is that it lacks MDMI.  Something that is reportedly fixed with their forthcoming pre-amp!  Who cares what the form factor is if there's no function

It is amazing to me that people got paid real money to come up with these designs.  On top of that, the designs most likely had to be approved by multiple people at these organizations.  The wadax is the least offensive to me.  Tectonic and McIntosh are close but Tekton gets the edge because I could put the Mc in a cabinet to hide.
