Have you seen the MacIntosh MC2102 when you seat there in the dark? It is so beautiful in general. The Conrad Johnson Premier 17 LS comes in second.
What is your most beautiful component?
Sound qualities set aside... What is the most beautiful component in your system. If you can please provide links to a picture of it. For me it is my Basis 1400 turntable. This turntable is a piece of art. Unfortunately, I cannot find Basis' home page.
