I'll start. I think this is kind of a cool tribute to a McIntosh sales rep, even if I'd prefer the MC75s in their plain clothes.

Oh, god.

I like gooooooooold!

I always think of dartzeel when I think of gaudy & ostentatious gear https://www.stereophile.com/content/dartzeel-nhb-468-monoblock-power-amplifier

Or the Bricasti M1 Gold special edition thing.

Anything D'agostino is untastefully ORFAS in my opinion (tries too hard to look like retro audio gear or luxury watches):

@ChaChaRealSmooth I actually kinda like the look of the device on the front page. Green + bronze, nice. (Not that I’d ever buy such a thing, though.)

The D'agostino is a bit better looking in person, to my eyes, but, yeah, the aesthetic isn't my thing. Seems very well made (or cased) anyway. I tend to like the utilitarian aesthetics of, say, Audio Research Corp.
