The "coolest" looking system?

O.K., this goes along with the best/worst speaker threads as banal. So what? I don't care what the stuff sounds like,if you were just going for looks, what would you put together for a system? What made me think of this is the Shanling CD T 100. This thing looks very cool and is where I might start. Maybe add a Hovland Sapphire, a Hovland HP-100,an Oracle Delphi Mk V, and a pair of Martin Logan Prodigy's with an aniline blue dye finish for speakers(just to keep with the glowing blue Hovland theme). Go nuts!

Sugarbrie, and what speaker might you complete this ensamble with? Maybe horn loaded speakers made out of one of those pointy cone bras that Madonna was fond of a few years ago?

I do not have the coolest looking system, but I do have, probably the coolest looking and sounding monitor platforms. They are called: Sistrum Mini Monitor Platforms. Soon, they should have a picture of this baby on their website. Picture, if you can, three 25lb. dunce caps, each with one 1 1/2" audio point on the top, facing point up, and three on the bottom, point down. Hard to picture? Wasn't for me. I bought them having never seen or heard them. Won't be long, I'm told before you'll beable to see them first hand.

Warrenh, I think Viggen has the coolest speaker platforms. Most informative too. Take a look at his virtual system. :•)
