To my eyes it's just a little guy looking coy & cute.

I currently have two Cute Beyonds, though, since I don't have two heads, one is on Ebay. I wish I could comment on sound quality but these are my first dedicated amps, and their effect has simply been to make me crave better (I've now ordered a Little Dot V)---not because they're bad but because they're so good. If I can get this quality at this price, thought I, how much better it must be at twice or thrice the price. (That's how I think--in rhyme, and with no regard for the law of diminishing returns ). There'll be no next step after the Little Dot though, unless it's a sideways step to tubes, which I dislike on grounds of practicality (they're too vulnerable and heat up the room in Summer). One truth I discovered long ago with hi-fi is that there's far more variation between CDs than between components, and that even the best component can't make a crap CD sound good, though it may make it a little more bearable.
