Of course I am somewhat biased...:smoke:

jeez what does that thing weigh? and all that for those little speakers
 
Performance aside.. What Amp Integrated or Not in your opinion Is most Visually stunning??? I think my favorite based on its looks will have to be the Technics SE-A7000. It's just got a really Warm and classy look to it. Some of the other Models of course are black...... I wouldn't even take a second glance at those.

This is an awesome thread! All of these posts are winners. Thanks to those who have introduced me to amps I didn't know existed (that's what happens when you sit in a mancave for too long). :thmbsp:

I second that. The same goes for Classé Omega monoblocks and I'm a longtime Classé owner and fan.

I love the older Classe amps where the amps had the thick fascia and big handles. Elegant but extruded quality. I am not so enamoured with them now.
 
Out of my collection, i think the V8X for looks inside and out:)

^love the Technics Baily, and all the other interesting looking amps. First thing i want to see when i get an amp, is how it looks underneath :D
 
I have to put the Yamaha MX-2000 into the vote, I think it is better proportioned than the MX-10000. It even betters the Technics and Sony, witch in my eyes is too much meters (but nize :yes: ).

And I must say there are some really nice looking amps here; to say one is THE best looking amp is not possible. We can make categories but that is as close as we can get.

Exceptional. The driver PCBs are almost sci-fi. Designed to last and drive anything. While this amp was released 5 years prior to the Jeff Rowland No.8, its amp stages are nearly identical.

To my mind, nothing, and I mean nothing, exudes quality like Accuphase.

Accuphase defines quality. The P-5000 and P-7000 are pure works of art.

I know the Acurus amps are a bit plain but three stacked look good to me! :yes:

My currently using Kenwood WX-100 has nice appearnce, too. In its catalogue about 45 years ago, they state "this model has very noble design....." (On top of it is placed a chinese 6CA7 SE amp.)
