Oh come on now, we all know that any "truly sexy" audio gear ever made was all from Heathkit or Radio Shack and my parents Airline Stereo was SOTA.
What are the sexiest components ever made?
As Enzo Ferrari had said that the XKE was the most beautiful/sexiest car ever made (his opinion, not mine). How about high end audio products? There have to be some that sex was thought about by the designers?
Not the most exotic, but like a classic Mercedes or Packard,..there is a reason the Linn 12 has been around as long as it has. Yamaha had that slanted cassette deck, and I hope you can add to this list and, if possible, add a photo.
I think a young Barbi Benton holding even an 8-track player would be very attractive.

In its day, the Pioneer PD-65 was a sexy looking early higher end CD player. And, again in their way, every Magnepan and Martin Logan ESL I had got plenty of good remarks on looks. I must admit most of my early Magnepans with dates they did think they were room dividers....or a screen for me to "change into something more comfortable". |
In its price range and function, the Magnum Dynalab 208 Receiver is a good looking piece of very functional modern audio art. I have been lucky enough to have some good and good lucking items...the MD-208 and original C.J. ART are my picks for both function and looks. I do enjoy having people wonder what the Hell those room dividers are when I have had Magnepans. |

That Empire turntable was my first hifi lust. I never owned one, but it had a look that said, "class". |
