Two distinctively different aesthetics that I happen to like both visually (and I don't own either) are Jadis ORCHESTRA Black and, probably more controversial, the Line magnetic LM-518IA in white with gold front panel.
Who, do you think, designs the best looking tube-based devices?
The reason I chose specifically devices with tubes is because, in my opinion, it's much harder to design something good -not to mention gorgeous- looking with tubes and transformers sticking out.
From the ones that I know, which is not a lot, Airtight and Allnic designs stand out in my eyes. Shindo and Atma Sphere, on the other hand, do not look appealing at all. KT-Audio looks beautiful internally, whereas externally it's nothing special...yet?
I'm only asking about design, I don't care about sound :-)
