Best looking / worst looking amps & preamps

I see in Audio Advisor that Perreaux has redesigned and dramatically (improved) the appearance of their amps and pre-amps. They now look more "industrial" and more conventional (and pretty good!). It was a previous series that was so gross-- don't want to grind Perreaux into the mud-- they probably sound good. Cheers. Craig

Well, on the Ampzilla 2000, don't go to the SAE website and suggest you think its ugly, as your heritage, your manhood/womanhood, heritage, taste and upbringing will be brought into question in an attempt to leave it forever smarting.

I like blue lights so I'd like to nominate the new Pass X Series and the Hovland amps for good looks. I agree the Perreaux blob style was a turnoff, and their new look is much more palatable.

I like the looks of the Graff SET amplifiers made in Italy...absolute works of art. I also like the more utilitarian estetics of the Audio Research gear (silver only). The Hovland amp and pre look very impressive as well. I don't care for the gold Acuphase look at all.
