I think the design is very emotive and draws on ones attention, as for the rest, hopefully one day we will cross paths and let them sing.

We've seen that here before. It reminds me of a sixties Cadillac car, needless, tasteless, excess!
I think it looks okay in that more modernist steampunk way, but the price for all that crap? No thanks, yes directed at those mentioned above, those with a much higher means than me. Even I did have the cash, I doubt I would be looking to buy them.

Well 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder' of course, as we have seen with the turntable thread - but I really do think the Dan D'Agostino effort looks ostentatious, 'blingy', and IMO 'vulgar'.
Mind you I think the same of the looks of the darTZeel products. And closer to home, that of Chord electronics.
Shame sound electronic design is spoilt by cosmetics.

If you were wealthy enough to afford them you could probably get them built into a more tasteful case. It's really only that nasty copper trim that makes it look shit, you could just cover it over with tape or something. Bit of black Hammerite paint maybe. I think that would cure it.
