Who, do you think, designs the best looking tube-based devices?


The reason I chose specifically devices with tubes is because, in my opinion, it's much harder to design something good -not to mention gorgeous- looking with tubes and transformers sticking out.

From the ones that I know, which is not a lot, Airtight and Allnic designs stand out in my eyes. Shindo and Atma Sphere, on the other hand, do not look appealing at all. KT-Audio looks beautiful internally, whereas externally it's nothing special...yet?

I'm only asking about design, I don't care about sound :-)

Can’t remember the name of ones that the form looked like sea creatures, with eyes, etc.

When I was looking, Pathos (Italia!) and Vincent (demure, but with a peek inside the boudoir) were both alluring, but in the end I went with Quicksilver, but not for looks. As I look over the variations, there are lots of nice boxes (some with tubes jutting out, others with fancy metal coffins), but they all reduce of a pedestrian, utilitarian look, at least to me. Yes, a nice wood box doesn't hurt, but from a design standpoint, it's not much of an aesthetic accomplishment. Electronluv is amazing -- almost dangerously good looking.
