blakey72 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Not mega high end but very sexy IMO, I've liked Plinius gear since the first time I saw it. not to blow my own trumpet but I probably wouldn't own it if I didn't like it. I still sit and look at the sexy curves some nights while I'm listening. They look like they are built like a tank (they are) but still have a kind of soft appealing look. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCAJack Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 (edited) The Lecson AC1 and AP1/AP3 pre power combo still amazes me. It's nearly 50 years old! And no I don't want to hear about reliability. Edit: Oops. Current production you say? I love the classic industrial styling of the Sun Audio amps (unchanged since forever).

Grant Slack Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Hi guys I won’t deny it: I have trouble thinking of Hifi gear that would meet any conventional standard of beauty. Consider the simple spouse test: how many of our spouses would pay even $100 to have any one of our Hifi items added to their showcase living area as a non-working artefact of decorative beauty? The answer is so close to ‘not one’ that it is simply damning. Cheers Grant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
