Two that come to mind are the Transcriptors Saturn & Satelite turntables, and early Tandberg 2045 receivers with the Teak top & end panels.
If this digresses to the 'stick a finger down my throat' ugliest equipment, The Thorens AT403 and AT410 receivers take the cake. 15 years later, I still get sick thinking about how they looked. But lord, they sounded great & if anyone out there every sees one, give it a listen.
