I like the looks of early Naim Nait integrated amps,for example, but wasn't impressed with the performance of one I tried for several weeks. I don't now have any equipment I consider ugly, but used to have the Dynaco Stereo 70 and 120, both pretty good sounding amps. Someone once said the Stereo 70 looked agricultural.
