Eye Candy


This morning, while putting an LP on my turntable, I thought to myself, "man this thing is beautiful!"  I then pondered briefly, as a group, what components do I enjoy looking at the most?  Well, for me, turntables have to be the winner.  Preamps--not so much.

What say you?

I also love the glow of the tubes in a darked room... Until I turn on the rest of the gear and get blinded by those blinding blue and white LEDs everyone likes using. The blue and green painters tape I have to use to cover them kinda kills the aesthetic.  LOL

As cold weather sets in I may need to rotate in my tube amp.  So maybe the turntable does have a little competition.

Thanks, just ordered the stickers from Amazon.

My two biggest offenders are a Schiit DAC on the main system with white LEDs that you can read by, and a modified Dared tube pre-amp on the bedroom system that has a blue LED that is so bright that I swear has burned a hole in the wall across the room.  And worse yet, the one on the Dared pre is so bright, that I can actually tell when AC voltage is dipping because the LED pulses.   LOL
