Wadia debuts new Integrated

Looks to be a Devaliet competitor. Very modern looking,I am sure the WAF will be high.

I prefer gear that looks like it was made by bespecticled dudes in white lab coats in 1956. Williamson! Hafler! The new-ish Rogers amp looks like they kidnapped an elderly former Dynaco employee from the rest home and refused him his soup until he used his liver spotted shaky fingers to outline a tube amp. This is exactly why I bought a Triumph Bonneville T100 in 2012. That, and the fact that it sounds great (with different than stock pipes).

Looks like somebody sat on it. DeVialet is much cooler in the looks department.

It looks like it should be tasty...but it might need a little cocktail sauce.

I think it's part of a trend to a cleaner, simpler aesthetic. Less adorned and configured. NuForce is doing it along with Roksan, which I really like:

I find their new amp and CDP quite fetching.

All the best,
