Best looking / worst looking amps & preamps


OK, this week we garnered opinions on the best looking and ugliest speakers. Now it's time to assess the best looking and worst looking amps and preamps. To make the discussion more focused, let's confine choices to amps and preamps manufactured since 1980. Ready....GO!

Best Looking: Audio Devices (ultra-expensive Japanese components made in the late-'80's) champagne gold and ivory components, and Mike Maloney's MAN (Scientific Fidelity) triangular amp and handlebar preamp.

Worst Looking: I thought my Krell FPB with the old-style faceplate was ugly until I saw Bongiorno's Ampzilla 2000. The CTC Blowtorch preamp's appearance doesn't say, "I want a big hug" either.
