The "coolest" looking system?

O.K., this goes along with the best/worst speaker threads as banal. So what? I don't care what the stuff sounds like,if you were just going for looks, what would you put together for a system? What made me think of this is the Shanling CD T 100. This thing looks very cool and is where I might start. Maybe add a Hovland Sapphire, a Hovland HP-100,an Oracle Delphi Mk V, and a pair of Martin Logan Prodigy's with an aniline blue dye finish for speakers(just to keep with the glowing blue Hovland theme). Go nuts!

Max? "Post-modern"?

I'm Cro-magnon.

Here's my idea of a good cheap date - Topless too!

Look at the knobs on that one! Matches my living room too!

It's not so much that I dislike the Shanling. It's just that I would feel obliged to go hog-wild and buy matching cables too!

Funny you should ask...I happen to have 20 of these.... Beauties cryogenically treated at a reduced price.

I need one to cover the pee stain in my pants from laughing so hard!

They list at $29.95 but with the tratment and shipping it's
$6,345.95. The synergy alone is a bargain. They are left over from my audio club's last group purchase. Don't let the price scare you. It feels quite musical...we like to think of the jacket as a "component." Music is fundamentally vibration and the last interface is, of course, your outerware - or underware, if you're so inclined, during serious listening.

I remain,
