For the Audiophile with a taste for good design(looks)....a question.

What are your favorite audio components and speakers based on the way they look (looked).  Yes, I know that sound is what counts and that is my major influence, but I do enjoy well designed/good looking products.   I no longer do, but did have a collection of art deco radios, both table models and consoles.....and that was all about design rather than their audiophile qualities.  Thanks

Also, the Sony. SS-M speakers were darn cool:  SS-M3, SS-M7, SS-M9.  I don't know the geometric term for their shape; maybe someone else here does?

Don't know much modern gear so I'll list some vintage.  Tandberg receivers, Marantz 2130, REL Precedent tuner; if you like Art Deco you'll like those last two.

+1 on the B&O, Luxman, vintage Mac and 80's Technics gear.  JBL 250Ti speakers.

Dan D'Agostino amps are kind of cool looking in a ridiculously overbuilt and in-your-face steam punk kind of way.
