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.

Those spartons are gorgeous enough to get just about anyone all wiggly inside.

Hovland did some nice stuff, but those spartons, are just - wow.

Want. Very much want. And copies simply will not do.

The old Scotts were nice.  Also a fan of the Sansui integrated.  Buttons all in the right places.
