Love it, or Hate it ? (wood trim)


Well, actually not quite that strong!

I'm talking about wood trim on amps or preamps? Some of the wood appears to be quite beautiful, but I think that it looks "wrong" and I dislike wood trim! I'm taking an informal poll:

Hate= Would NEVER own with wood trim
Dislike= Would prefer no wood trim
Neutral= I could care less
Like= Would prefer wood trim
Love= MUST have wood trim

Also, if you live outside of the USA, would you please indicate so and your country, [if you feel comfortable giving this info]?

I'm just curious about preferences, and also to see if they vary in other countries!

Neutral, just as long as it sounds awsome.
Wood with brass colored trim and glowing tubes look KILLER.
Except for vintage receivers and amps like Luxman, I hate the use of wood as I see it now on components. I am Canadian so I know the right wing stateside will disregard whatever I say,that's ok, I consider the source.
HATE IT.
Seen some amps that pull it off, but all in all, wood trim on an amp/pre reminds me of those lame ass station wagons of yesteryear with the wood trim paneling on the sides.
barf.
i personally cant stand wood of any kind on any gear except speakers(of course)i think it looks cheap & tacky & as you say all wrong.

ok,my vote = hate.
