Ugliest Component of the Year 2024!

I am digging your sense of humor and take on Tekton’s. And I agree, horns belongs in a nice wood cabinet with one exception. Check out WVL 33221 Berlin. If I have the room with high ceilings, I wouldn’t mind these bad boys.

From the planet Tralfamador:

Geez. Those are just horrible. 

Agreed, Lalitk, The Frankenstein look of the MCD85 is, IMO, unbeatable in this little contest of yours.

It is (obviously?) a reference to the MC2100, which I owned for some years, but never appreciated for beauty. It sat on a bottom shelf, largely in the shadows of a dark listening room, and nobody ever approached it to "get a closer look".

That's the new McIntosh Microwave; they are entering the appliance market. The design works well if you keep your audio equipment in the kitchen.
