Most Beautiful Receiver / Integrated - Ever was... ?

Time for what I hope is another fun thread. Please include links if you can.

I'm curious to everyone what you think the hottest/sexiest most interesting integrated or receiver ever was. For me, brands like these would probably be in the running:

  • Carver
  • Kyocera
  • Tandberg
  • Revox (old)

It didn't have to work, or sound good. Just had to do it for you in the looks department.

George,

WHICH Tandberg series though, there were 3 that I know of. The svelte black and chrome line is what I fell in love with.

Best,

Eric, RE: the Primare, I think this review says it best and relates it to some peers. I picked it over the Belles Aria, though it was almost a tie, and a Creek Classic 5350SE.

We/you should start one of these for turntables. I would; but I am not well known and get very few replies to threads I start.

Hi 2Channel8,

I will leave that to a turntable person, which I am not. :) I don't think you have to be well known to start a fun thread, just do it in the spirit of engaging rather than criticizing and I think you'll succeed.

Find a key aspect about them you love like say, 1980's turntables, or P-mounted or something and others will join in.

Good luck!
