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!

I like the wood accents on my soundlab m2's and klyne pre amp;also it has a more important impact; the waf (wife acceptance factor).

Really - my wife hates wood on electronics components almost as much as the sexist term WAF.

Love it as long as it's not being mixed with metal-only gear or, even worse, different wood colours.
Good example: Ancient Audio Lektor (red wood finish) + Yamamoto HA2 headphone amp + Audio Technica ATH-W1000 Sovereign headphones
Bad example: Unison Research tube amp + Unison Unico CD

not a big fan of it, but i do own an Emotive Sira which has wood all around & doesnt match the rest of my system,but then again im all about the sound so its staying cause it sounds pretty damn good.
